Drive joint revenue opportunities through co-sell activity and collaborative business planning
Act as the primary point of contact for assigned partner organisations
Build strong relationships across partner sales, leadership and enablement teams
Identify opportunities to accelerate pipeline growth, increase deal value and improve win rates
Lead partner introductions, co-sell engagements and funding qualification activities
Support internal sales teams with partner programmes, incentives and sales opportunities
Enable partner sales teams on solutions, services and value propositions

Represent the business at executive briefings, partner events, industry conferences and customer engagements

Experience in alliances, partnerships, channel management, vendor management or distribution management within the technology sector
Strong commercial mindset with a proven ability to influence revenue outcomes
Excellent stakeholder management and relationship-building skills
Ability to engage confidently with both internal and external senior stakeholders
Strong communication, networking and presentation skills
Organised and proactive approach with the ability to manage multiple priorities
Willingness to travel regularly across the UK for partner meetings and industry events
Desirable
Experience working with enterprise technology vendors, distributors or channel ecosystems
Exposure to co-sell programmes and joint go-to-market initiatives
Experience supporting partner enablement activities
Knowledge of enterprise technology sales environments
