## Job Description

## Responsibilities

- Work directly with Sales Leaders, Account Executives and Solutions Architects, bringing the partner into the sales cycle at the right moments and ensuring clear roles, clean handoffs, and shared accountability for outcomes
- Build relationships across multiple levels of the partner organization — from practice leads and delivery teams to alliance executives — and serve as their primary point of contact at Anthropic
- Own the commercial relationship with a portfolio of assigned SI partners, driving partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue against defined targets
- Develop and execute joint go-to-market plans with each partner, including target account mapping, pipeline generation activities, and co-sell motions with Anthropic's direct sales team
- Collaborate with enablement and program teams to get your partners trained, certified, and equipped with the materials they need to position Claude effectively
- Track pipeline health, forecast partner-attached revenue, and surface blockers early so cross-functional teams can help unblock them
- Gather signal from partner interactions — what's landing, what's missing, where clients are pushing back — and feed it into product and go-to-market planning
- Contribute to the development of partner sales processes, playbooks, and best practices as the function scales

## Requirements

- 7+ years of experience in partner sales, channel sales, alliances, business development or direct sales at a technology company where partners are heavily involved
- A demonstrated track record of driving revenue through partners — you can point to pipeline you built, deals you influenced, and relationships that outlasted any single transaction
- Strong commercial instincts, including comfort structuring co-sell agreements, navigating multi-party deal dynamics, and knowing when to push and when to let the partner lead
- Experience operating in early-stage or high-growth environments where processes are still forming and you're expected to help build them
- Excellent communication and relationship-building skills across all levels, from partner practitioners to alliance executives
- A collaborative working style — you're energized by cross-functional work and understand that partner sales only works when Sales, Product, and Delivery are aligned
- Comfort with ambiguity and a willingness to create structure where it doesn't yet exist
- Willingness to travel to support partner relationships and joint customer engagements
- A genuine interest in AI and a belief that advanced AI systems should be developed safely and responsibly

## Nice-to-haves

- Experience working at a major Systems Integrator or global consulting firm, giving you firsthand insight into how these organizations make decisions, staff engagements, and build practices around emerging technology
- A background in AI, cloud platforms, developer tools, or other categories where technical enablement and differentiation are central to the partner motion
- Familiarity with consumption-based or API-first business models and how they shape partner economics and incentive design
- Experience managing partner relationships across multiple geographies
- A history of being an early member of a partner sales function and helping it scale

## Compensation

**Annual OTE:** $300,000—$355,000 USD (includes base salary and sales commissions/bonuses)
