Lead a channel partnerships team that signs referral, co-sell and co-marketing deals across several verticals, reporting to the VP of Business Development.

About the role

The team works on partner-sourced growth: finding, signing and activating partners so that reach extends into markets the rest of the industry has overlooked. Success means a predictable funnel with quality deals, not a pile of logos.

What you will do

  • Grow the channel team to six to eight people, at least one per vertical, and own the pipeline, signing and activation targets.
  • Define the ideal partner profile, sourcing mix and deal structures for each vertical, then turn what works into a repeatable playbook.
  • Step into live deals as a player-coach, clear stalled negotiations and close complex multi-stakeholder partnerships.
  • Negotiate economics, mutual commitments and activation plans, and keep days in contracting under control.

What they look for

  • Experience leading enterprise or channel sales teams, including managing reps while carrying your own quota.
  • A record of building a vertical or partner playbook from scratch rather than running an existing one.
  • Comfort with multi-stakeholder deals and commercial negotiation that holds up in execution.
  • Strong Salesforce hygiene and a habit of running cadence and accountability.
  • Ability to work across two products and every vertical in the ecosystem.
