What you will own

• Set the regional partner GTM strategy. Own the existing partner accounts end to end, including contract negotiation.
• Turn partners into pipeline. Train partner business development teams to sell Payhawk, then track their leads and assign each one within our sales organisation.
• Put Payhawk in front of the market. Run co-marketing campaigns with partners and represent Payhawk at industry conferences and events.
• Report on partner performance. Share results regularly and act on them with sales, customer success, solution engineering, marketing and legal.
