Egnyte is expanding its channel in EMEA, and this is a unique opportunity to put your existing channel relationships to work for a company that is transforming its GTM to a partner-first mentality. If you are a strong partner sales professional that loves building partner businesses in companies and have strong leadership experience, this role is for you!

This role will carry an individual quota and be responsible for channel partner development, owning key partner accounts and managing a Partner Development team. It also involves partner recruitment, enablement, strategic planning, ongoing partner management, and co-selling into end-customer organisations.

  • Individually and as a team leader, develop and grow new and existing Egnyte channel partners to increase pipeline and revenue contribution
  • Develop, drive, and execute strategic partner sales plans with partner leadership
  • Build strong relationships across key partner stakeholders to strengthen the partnership
  • Develop and execute partner marketing campaigns working closely with Partner Marketing to drive incremental revenue
  • Work cross-functionally with Egnyte key stakeholders and build a “one-team” attitude across all extended team members
  • Build capacity, capability, and collaboration within a portfolio of Partners to achieve partner loyalty and drive partner wallet-share

 

YOUR QUALIFICATIONS:

  • 12+ years experience building and managing value added partnerships in EMEA with strong existing partner relationships
