We're an AI platform company building out our partner ecosystem, and we're looking for a hands-on senior partner marketing and go-to-market builder to help us do it.
This is not an enablement-content role, and it is not a strategy-only role. We're looking for someone who has built partner activation and partner go-to-market before, from scratch, in a fast-moving SaaS or AI environment — and who can take a product capability and a partnership opportunity and turn it into positioning, design programs, and a go-to-market motion that partners can actually sell from.
What you'll do, at a high level
- Build industry and virtualized partner positioning and go-to-market motions.
- Turn platform capabilities into partner-ready solutions and partner activation programs.
- Work across technology partners, systems integrators, and cloud and hyperscaler ecosystems.
- Create the partner-facing programs and materials partners sell and deliver from — not decks that sit unused.
What matters in your background
- Minimum 5-7 years of experience - You've done partner, alliance, or ecosystem marketing
before — hands-on, not oversight.
- You come from e-commerce, retail, or customer engagement. This one matters to us.
- You've shipped vertical programs and solutions that partners actually used and adopted by
partners.
- You have experience working in ISV motion with focus on technology and AI partnerships or
verticals marketplaces.
- You move fast, build from scratch, and think like an operator.
- Startup or scale-up mentality, comfortable in execution mode.
- You are passionate about partnership.
If this is you, let's talk — the detail lives in the conversation.
About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Partner Program & Marketing Lead to help build and scale our
partner ecosystem. Reporting into Partnership organisation.
This is a cross-functional, hands-on role focused on partner programs, partner marketing,
communications, design partnership, co-sell activation, and ecosystem execution.

and execute successfully.
This is a builder role. We are looking for someone who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys creating
structure, and is willing to roll up their sleeves to get things done. You will be equally
comfortable managing a complex cross-functional project, creating and vetting partner-facing
content, supporting a partner event, coordinating a product launch, or driving a co-sell
activation program.
