VP, Partner & Alliances Ecosystem
Hirebridge, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States,
Job Title: VP, Global Partners & Alliances Ecosystem
Reports to: Chief Marketing Officer
At Quickbase, we’re on a mission to radically improve how complex industries – like construction, manufacturing, telco, and energy – operate, enabling millions of people to make a bigger impact at work. Building on our 20 years of success and enhancing our platform with AI, we will replace the need for thousands of vertical software solutions with a faster, more flexible, and far more affordable way to work. To win, we’ll need to create an ecosystem of software and service partners – and assemble a marketplace of industry solutions. In this role, you will lead that effort from the front, including crafting an ecosystem strategy, building a world-class team, weaving partners into our go-to-market, and managing indirect revenue contribution in all its forms. This is a chance to build a modern ecosystem that delivers industry solutions that may not otherwise exist – and generates growth for Quickbase across the buyer journey. You’ll need to collaborate fiercely at all levels of the company, including with key executives and the board. You’ll also need to think about growth broadly as a cocktail of marketing, sales, and product strategies. When successful, we believe our ecosystem will differentiate us in the market, deliver radically more customer value, help us enter new markets, and contribute a large portion of our new revenue.
Job Duties and Responsibilities
Develop and execute an ecosystem strategy:
Lead the creation of a successful strategy to deliver solutions and drive growth in target industries by developing an ecosystem of tech alliances and service partners, including GSIs, regional SIs, and MSPs. Mobilize existing partners and add new ones to help us win markets.
Build and run a high-performing team:
Build and lead a team of talented partner sales & marketing professionals to drive growth, starting with a strong team of five with room to grow. Responsibilities include establishing pipeline and bookings contribution targets and forecasting performance monthly, quarterly, and annually.
Establish strategic alliances:
Work as a player/coach to forge successful partnerships with strategic industry software companies and cloud providers, including establishing joint value propositions, prioritizing solutions to market and sell, setting performance goals, building co-marketing plans, and creating co-selling motions.
Enhance our service partner program:
Tailor our established partner program for our current vertical-focused strategy. Define the right mix of SIs, resellers, and MSPs, and establish a programmatic way to co-develop, market, and sell solutions through direct and indirect motions.
Direct the partner go-to-market:
Collaborate with leaders in sales, customer success, pro services, and marketing to build a systematic way to engage partners throughout the buyer’s journey – from discovering a solution to implementing and maintaining one.
Basic Qualifications
10+ years of experience with software partnerships
5+ years proven success building partner models involving both tech alliances (ISVs, AWS, GCP, etc.) and service partners (SIs, resellers, MSPs)
Track record of setting and exceeding pipeline and bookings targets
Reputation for driving collaboration across multiple teams to create pipeline, close bookings, and deliver value for customers
Ability to make strategy simple and actionable
Experience in vertical go-to-market preferred
Benefits
A culture of inclusivity - appreciating you as an individual and member of our diverse community
Employee Resource Groups fostered around career enablement programs
Hybrid and remote work model with our headquarters in Boston, MA, with the option for in-person team summits
Generous 401(k) match and emphasis on wellness benefit package
Opportunities to participate in charitable events and give back to the community
