We're hiring a Partner Development Manager to recruit, onboard, and activate channel partners and drive partner-sourced pipeline across our target markets. This is a hands-on commercial role. You'll own the full partner lifecycle from sourcing through to revenue contribution, working closely with the CRO and the direct sales team. Early partner relationships are already generating pipeline. This role will scale that motion across a broader portfolio of partners and build the operational rhythm to sustain it. You will report directly to the CRO, with a defined path to Head of Channels and Alliances as the programme scales.   What you'll do You'll recruit partners from a curated target list, prioritising cloud hyperscaler ecosystem partners, regional and multi-regional systems integrators with embedded relationships inside enterprise financial services and technology accounts, AI governance and software engineering advisory firms, and complementary SaaS vendors serving the same engineering and finance buyers with adjacent, non-competing products. You'll run the full partner recruitment cycle from initial outreach through commercial agreement to activation. You'll enable signed partners so thoroughly that they can position BlueOptima confidently and independently. You'll build co-sell motions in lockstep with BlueOptima AEs, including cloud marketplace transactions. You'll manage marketplace listing optimisation and activation mechanics in partnership with our product and finance teams. You'll own the partner pipeline in HubSpot with full transparency and forecast accountability to the CRO every week and every quarter. You'll build and maintain the operational scaffolding of the programme: onboarding processes, enablement materials, deal registration workflows, and partner scorecards.
