Channel Partner Manager (Flex)
Posted Updated
Description
- Ramp is building its UK partnerships ecosystem, and we’re looking for a Channel Partner Manager who can turn relationships across a myriad of industries into meaningful customer opportunities. This is a generalist role for someone who can see where a partnership makes sense, move quickly, and build momentum across a varied partner portfolio
- You’ll identify how and where Ramp can create value for a prospective partner’s customer base, then carry the relationship through to qualified introductions and customer adoption. You’ll learn what uniquely motivates each partner and turn early success into a repeatable flywheel of referrals. Some relationships will need to be built from the ground up; others will need sharper activation and follow-through. The mix will evolve, so you should be comfortable moving between different partner models while staying focused on commercial outcomes
- You’ll work closely with Ramp’s UK Sales team and colleagues in Partnerships, Marketing, Events, Product, and Engineering to connect the right partners and customers and make each introduction count
- Build and manage a varied portfolio of UK partners, adapting your approach to each relationship and industry
- Identify how Ramp can create value for a prospective partner’s customer base, then prioritize relationships with the clearest path to fast execution
- Understand what matters to each partner and shape a referral motion that gives them a compelling reason to keep bringing relevant customers to Ramp
- Create repeatable sources of qualified introductions through partner enablement, account mapping, joint campaigns, events, and warm networks
- Use business communities, hospitality, and executive events when they can create relevant introductions and measurable commercial value
- Coordinate partner introductions and follow-up with Ramp’s Sales team so opportunities have a clear owner and a strong customer experience
- Track partner activity from introduction through qualified opportunity and customer adoption; use the data to refine each motion and focus time on what works
- Run regular partner reviews, keep commitments moving across teams, and represent Ramp credibly with partner executives and prospective customers
- What success looks like
- Ramp has a prioritized UK partner portfolio with a clear customer opportunity and path to activation for each active relationship
- Partners and Ramp teams know who owns each introduction, opportunity, and next step
- Partner activity produces a consistent flow of relevant introductions, qualified opportunities, and customers
- Partners continue to bring relevant referrals because the relationship creates value for their customers and for their own business
- The strongest partner motions are repeatable, and the team has evidence to decide where to invest next
