Regional Enablement: Support regional field teams by providing localized assets and clear program documentation, ensuring global strategies are executed consistently across all geographies.
Reporting & Impact: Maintain and analyze performance dashboards. Regularly report on key metrics such as partner-influenced pipeline, ACV growth, and program participation rates to optimize future investments.
Cross-Functional Coordination: Liaise between Partner Sales, Marketing Ops, and Creative teams to ensure the timely delivery of co-branded content, case studies, and digital assets.
Event Operational Support: Support the execution of partner presence at flagship events (e.g., Oktane, SKO, and major third-party conferences) by managing logistics, sponsorship fulfillment, and lead capture processes.
Qualifications
3-6 years of experience in marketing programs, operations, or partner marketing within the SaaS or high-tech industry.
Process-Driven: Strong ability to build and document repeatable workflows that improve team efficiency.
Tech Stack Proficiency: Experience with Salesforce, marketing automation tools (e.g., Marketo), and Partner Relationship Management (PRM) platforms.
