  • Negotiate and close partner agreements, including deal structures, incentive programs, and GTM plans
  • Own performance tracking and pipeline reporting across partner channels
  • Scale operational processes for onboarding, enablement, and ongoing partner success
  • You Have:

  • 5+ years of experience in partnerships, business development, or channel sales, ideally at a high-growth SaaS or payments company
  • Proven track record of sourcing, closing, and scaling GTM partnerships that drive pipeline and revenue
  • Strong commercial acumen and experience negotiating partnership contracts
