About the role

Your primary objective is to turn our partner network into a high-performance sales engine.

  • Structured execution: You are highly organized and capable of managing dozens of partners and hundreds of leads without losing focus

  • Experience: At least five years of experience in channel sales, account management, or indirect sales within the IT/software sector
