  • Channel Partner Management
  • Own the end-to-end health of partner relationships (resellers, referrals), serving as the primary day-to-day point of contact for the partner
  • Ensure co-selling artifacts are available (pitch decks, tear sheets, demos) and continuously improve and evolve per partner feedback, collaborating with Marketing
  • Enable the partner's team through training and live deal support
  • Conduct monthly and quarterly partner business reviews to measure success, identify improvement areas, and surface feedback; prepare executive updates, including pipeline and financials

Required Experience & Skills
  • At least 3 years' experience in management consulting, product strategy or a closely related function, preferably serving the financial services and/or fintech sectors
  • Demonstrated ability to build financial models, business cases, and pricing analyses in Excel
  • Experience conducting and synthesizing market and competitive analysis, including maintaining structured frameworks and repeatable outputs
  • Experience managing or supporting external channel partnerships and ongoing relationship management
  • Genuine curiosity about fintech, open finance, and emerging technology; extreme comfort engaging in technical discussions with Product, Engineering, Solutions and Architecture colleagues
  • Demonstrated proficiency and motivation in leveraging generative AI tools (such as Claude) to enhance productivity, improve efficiency, and elevate the quality of work outcomes, with a commitment to continuous learning and sharing of best practices amongst team members

Preferred Experience/Skills
  • Background in commercialized API platforms, data networks, or banking technology infrastructure
  • Experience interpreting regulatory and compliance requirements in the design and development of solutions
  • Prior relationship management of channel partners in referral or reseller arrangements
  • Use of business tools such as Confluence, Jira, Figma, and BI reporting tools (such as QuickSight, Domo, PowerBI, etc)
