About the role

  • Take ownership of high-potential target accounts identified by partner client-facing representatives. Act as the internal sales lead, quarterbacking the deal from qualification through to close on partner paper.
  • Execute a hands-on, consultative co-selling motion, including leading discovery calls, developing joint value propositions, delivering high-stakes presentations, and managing complex negotiations to accelerate sales cycles.
  • Exceed aggressive quarterly and annual revenue targets derived specifically from partner-led, closed deals.
  • Maintain meticulous opportunity management and provide accurate, timely sales forecasts to internal leadership, ensuring pipeline health and deal progression momentum.
  • Systematically analyze successful deal cycles to develop and document a scalable, repeatable sales process and methodology for our partner ecosystem.
  • Use insights from account engagements to inform and improve partner enablement materials, tools, and training, ensuring the partner carries more and more of the sales process independently over time.
  • Conduct live deal reviews and one-on-one coaching sessions with partner sales reps, teaching best practices learned from experienced closing success.
  • Develop and maintain strong, trust-based relationships with partner sales leadership and individual representatives, ensuring alignment on target accounts and deal strategies.
  • Collaborate extensively with internal teams (Product, Marketing, Legal, and Sales Engineering) to ensure partner deals are supported with the necessary technical and legal resources.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of successful experience in direct sales (Quota-Carrying AE), Partner Sales, or a high-touch Co-Selling role, preferably in the technology sector (SaaS/Cloud).
  • Proven track record of closing complex, large-scale transactions and consistently achieving or exceeding sales quotas.
  • Demonstrable experience in process documentation, sales methodology design, or partner program optimization.
  • Exceptional skills in presentation, negotiation, and strategic account mapping.
  • Ability to travel as required to support partner engagements and target account opportunities.

  • Competitive salary: $135,000 Base Salary + $135,000 Variable
  • Generous equity grant in the form of company stock options
  • Comprehensive health and wellness packages
  • Open PTO
