This leader will develop strategic relationships with technology partners, consulting firms, agencies, resellers, and other go-to-market organizations that can expand Aurasell’s reach and create value for our customers.

You will own and completely build out the partner lifecycle—from strategy and recruitment through enablement, joint selling, performance management, and long-term growth. The ideal candidate combines strong relationship-building skills with commercial discipline, operational rigor, and a deep understanding of B2B SaaS partnerships.

• Identify, recruit, onboard, and manage strategic technology, services, referral, reseller, and channel partners.
• Build executive-level relationships with key partners and establish mutually beneficial business plans.
• Create scalable partner programs, including qualification criteria, onboarding, enablement, engagement models, incentives, and performance standards.
• Develop joint go-to-market strategies, including co-selling, co-marketing, referrals, events, content, and integrated solutions.
• Partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Product, Customer Success, and RevOps to support partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue.
• Build and maintain a healthy partner pipeline, tracking opportunities, referrals, joint campaigns, and revenue contribution.
• Equip partners with the messaging, product knowledge, collateral, training, and tools required to position Aurasell effectively.
• Establish partner success metrics and provide regular reporting on pipeline, bookings, activation, engagement, and return on investment.
• Identify opportunities for integrations and ecosystem expansion across sales engagement, CRM, intelligence, automation, and other GTM technologies.
• Represent Aurasell at partner meetings, industry events, customer engagements, and executive briefings.
• Gather partner and market feedback to inform product priorities, packaging, positioning, and customer experience.
• Continuously improve partner processes to support scale, accountability, and a consistent partner experience.

What You Bring

• 7+ years of experience in partnerships, alliances, channel sales, business development, or a related revenue function.
• Demonstrated success building and scaling B2B SaaS or technology partner programs.
• Experience managing multiple partner types, such as technology alliances, agencies, consultancies, resellers, or referral partners.
• Proven ability to generate measurable pipeline and revenue through partnerships.
• Strong understanding of partner-led and partner-influenced go-to-market motions.
• Experience developing joint business plans, enablement programs, co-selling motions, and partner marketing initiatives.
• Strong analytical and operational capabilities, including the ability to define metrics and manage partner performance.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across Sales, Marketing, Product, Customer Success, and executive leadership.
• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment with evolving priorities.

What We Offer
