About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Relationship Management & Strategy: You are the main point of contact for the partner. You conduct Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs), drive strategic milestones (e.g., Azure Expert MSP) and actively further develop the “PCG + Microsoft” narrative together with management.
Monetization & Marketplace: You steer the scaling of our marketplace business. As a funding driver, you ensure that every qualified enterprise deal (> €50k) is profitably supported through optimal use of funds (MDF, cash-back, POC funding).
Co‑Sell Orchestration: You act as the “resource guardian” and prioritize marketing and event activities based on strict ROI. You also organize mapping sessions between our internal areas and the Microsoft sales team.
Internal Enablement: You act as a multiplier and ambassador. Through sales masterclasses and regular updates you ensure our sales team knows and successfully leverages partner programs.
Governance: You are responsible for monitoring and managing all certifications critical to partner status (100% compliance).

Requirements

What you’ll need

Strategic sales mindset: Deep understanding of cloud ecosystems and experience managing hyperscaler partnerships with a focus on Microsoft.
Entrepreneurial thinking: You are responsible for a P&L and think in terms of partner contribution (Revenue + Funding – Costs), not in tickets.
Proven track record: You bring demonstrable success in this environment or a similar business and contribute a hands‑on learning approach.
Hands‑on deal acceleration: Ability to identify complex sales processes, apply funding levers and proactively drive them to closure.
Strong communication skills: Confident presence at C‑level and the ability to act internally as an enabler for the sales organization.
Structured way of working: You are data‑driven, know your KPIs (especially Marketplace Adoption & Funding Penetration) and steer your activities according to measurable impact.
Personal qualities: You demonstrate high integrity, remain composed under pressure, show perseverance and the courage to initiate necessary changes and tackle challenges.
Team player with drive: You convince by being results‑oriented and enjoy collaborating with our diverse team of passionate experts.
