WHY BOX NEEDS YOU

We are seeking a Partner Sales Manager I to join our growing Partner Sales organization. This high-impact, flexible role is responsible for driving revenue growth across regions and pods by executing partner-attached deals wherever coverage is needed. Rather than owning a fixed territory, this Partner Sales Manager I provides surge capacity across the organization - stepping into pods when an colleague is out, absorbing excess deal volume, and ensuring partner-attached opportunities close cleanly regardless of region.

It’s worth being precise about the distinction between our two partner-facing roles, because they are different jobs:

• PAMs (Partner Account Managers) are partner-facing. They own and develop the business around a specific partner — building the joint plan, the relationship, and the long-term motion with that partner.

• RPMs (Regional Partner Managers) are partner-agnostic. They execute partner-attached deals in their region or pod, working with whatever partner is on a given deal. RPMs are about deal execution, not partner development.

This role is deal-execution focused, but with the added expectation of mobility across pods and regions. This is a deal-execution role, not a partner-development or operations role.

WHAT YOU'LL DO 

Partner-Attached Deal Execution

• Pick up and execute partner-attached deals in whatever pod or region needs coverage, working alongside the in-region sales team to drive opportunities to close.

• Work partner-agnostically across resellers, distributors, SIs, cloud marketplaces, and ISVs - matching the right partner motion to each deal.

• Drive deal progression: remove blockers, coordinate partner and field activity, and push opportunities through the sales cycle.

• Manage end-of-quarter execution, including reseller transaction paths and deal logistics, to ensure deals land cleanly.

Coverage & Mobility

• Provide coverage for pods when the assigned RPM is out (leave, travel, transition).

• Step into regions carrying excess deal volume and pick up live opportunities with minimal ramp.

• Serve as surge capacity during peak periods, especially end-of-quarter close.

• Ramp quickly into unfamiliar pods - get up to speed on in-flight deals, the partners involved, and the field team fast.

Sales Alignment & Co-Sell Execution

• Work closely with Box’s regional Enterprise Account Executives and RVPs to align partner motions to priority accounts and opportunities.

• Act as a trusted advisor to the sales team on partner capabilities, programs, and deal structuring.

• Drive joint account planning, opportunity mapping, and multi-touch engagement strategies with partners.

• Influence and support deal cycles by incorporating partners to enhance Box’s value proposition.

• Deliver regular pipeline reviews and partner performance updates to sales leadership.

Forecast Participation

• Submit weekly partner-attached forecast for whatever pod(s) being covered, following the standard partner forecast process (Commit / ML / Best Case, with deal-backed path to target).

• Apply deal-level judgment on opportunities being carried, including a clear view of what it takes to bring deals into the forecast.

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner with internal stakeholders including Marketing, Sales Operations, Deal Desk, Legal, and Product to support partner execution and scalability.

• Collaborate with partner solutions engineers, marketing, and enablement teams to support execution.

• Ensure compliance with Box’s partner policies and programs, and advocate for continuous improvement.

Market Intelligence & Evangelism

• Stay informed on industry trends, partner landscape, and competitor moves across covered regions.

• Represent Box at partner events, industry conferences, and joint customer engagements.
