Partnership Manager
Posted Updated
Description
- We’re looking for a Partnerships Manager to grow AlertMedia’s Strategic Partnerships program. You’ll own these relationships end to end, including structuring and negotiating new partnership agreements, driving partner-sourced pipeline, and enabling the consultants who introduce us to their clients
- Own the consulting partner program strategy by defining the vision, priorities, and engagement model while building executive-level relationships that drive long-term commitment and position AlertMedia as a strategic advisor within partner consulting engagements
- Serve as the primary point of contact for AlertMedia’s Advisory Partner portfolio, owning the health of each relationship — from day-to-day cadence across partner stakeholders to enablement, escalation, and renewal/expansion of the partnership agreement itself
- Identify, structure, and negotiate new and renewing Advisory Partner agreements — including reseller, referral, and co-delivery models — in coordination with Legal and Sales leadership on deal and commercial structure
- Drive partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline by embedding AlertMedia into partners’ client advisory engagements (e.g., positioning AlertMedia within a risk consultancy’s resilience or crisis-management engagements)
- Own forecasting and reporting for the Advisory Partner book of business, including ACV sourced/influenced, active opportunities, and anchor-account expansion
- Educate and enable both partner-facing consultants and internal AlertMedia teams (Sales, CS, Legal) on AlertMedia’s platform, positioning, and the Advisory Partner motion, so each side knows how and when to bring the other in
- Build joint go-to-market materials and playbooks specific to the advisory motion (distinct from technology-integration partner collateral)
- Coordinate onboarding of new client accounts sourced through partners, ensuring smooth handoff between partner, AlertMedia CS, and implementation
- Maintain and prioritize a target list of prospective Advisory Partners — evaluating fit based on client base overlap, geographic reach, and service-line alignment — while tracking and reporting on the health and performance of the category to Partnerships leadership
- Represent AlertMedia at partner and industry events relevant to the risk/resilience advisory community
Benefits
- 100& Paid Healthcare: Take advantage of fully paid medical, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance for employees and subsidized for dependents.
- Bonus: Participate in the company-wide annual bonus based on their collective success.
- Family Planning: Leverage their 100% paid parental and new child bonding leave—12 weeks off for primary caregivers and 4 weeks off for secondary caregivers
- Paid Sabbatical: Pursue your interests with six weeks of paid sabbatical leave after six years of service.
- Tuesday Lunch: Get together for transparent company updates from leadership while enjoying a meal on AlertMedia
- PTO: Unplug, rest, and recharge with a flexible time off policy that encourages work-life balance without worrying about counting days!
- Give Back: Join your coworkers in giving back to the Austin community through quarterly volunteer opportunities
- Team Building and Celebrations: Take part in company celebrations, team buildings, and peer-nominated value award recognition
- You’re an accomplished partnerships, alliances, or sales professional with a track record of scaling strategic partnerships across SaaS organizations. You take pride in earning credibility with a partner’s executive leadership, and comfortable rolling up your sleeves to structure the commercial terms of partner agreements
- Skilled at translating a partner’s client-facing advisory work into a concrete AlertMedia opportunity and can spot where the platform fits inside someone else’s engagement
- Background working within, or closely alongside, an advisory or consulting firm (risk consultancy, Big 4, or similar professional services environment) is strongly preferred — you understand how consultancies structure client engagements and where a technology platform fits inside that relationship; experience spanning multiple partner types (technology, reseller, advisory) is a plus
- Experience in specialized risk consulting, military background, or as an AlertMedia customer/end user strongly preferred
- Experience in partnerships, alliances, business development, or channel management within B2B SaaS, including structuring and negotiating partnership agreements (reseller, referral, or co-delivery models) — with a track record of owning revenue-generating partner relationships end to end
- Strong executive presence and a consultative, trust-building approach. Advisory partners are won and grown through credibility, not quota pressure and you are comfortable engaging both partner-side leadership and day-to-day practitioners
- Cross-functional fluency working with Legal on contract structure, Sales on deal support, and CS on account handoff, along with working proficiency in CRM and partner-management tooling to track pipeline and report on partnership health
- Strong written and verbal communication — able to produce partner-facing enablement materials and internal reporting with equal clarity
- Active user of AI tools to optimize processes and improve efficiencies
- Self-directed and comfortable with ambiguity; this role will involve building process and structure for partner types that don’t yet have a mature playbook at AlertMedia
- Genuinely curious about the risk, resilience, and crisis-management space, with a willingness to travel for the partner meetings and industry events that keep you close to it
