What this role is all about

As a Strategic Partnership Development Manager , you'll be the primary owner of Infobip's most valuable partner relationships in North America - deepening existing partnerships and unlocking new revenue through a portfolio of top-tier accounts.

• Proactively lead joint partner planning sessions - defining mutual performance objectives, financial targets, and key milestones
• Develop and execute go-to-market strategies with partners to drive acquisition of new clients across all relevant markets
• Track, forecast, and analyze partnership performance; identify and act on growth opportunities within existing relationships
• Serve as the partner's internal ambassador - aligning Sales, Presales, Product, and Marketing to ensure implementations are delivered successfully

• Support the implementation of global partnerships at the regional level, establishing relationships and GTM initiatives with regional partner organizations

What makes you a strong fit

• +7 years of experience in strategic partnerships, channel management, or business development in B2B tech - CPaaS, SaaS, telecom, or API-based businesses preferred
• Proven track record of growing revenue through existing partner relationships - not just maintaining them
• Experience managing top-tier or enterprise-level partner accounts, including executive relationship management
• Experience working within or alongside major enterprise organizations (e.g. Microsoft, Oracle, Adobe, ServiceNow) - you understand how decisions get made and how to move things forward in complex orgs
• Startup or high-growth company experience is a plus - you bring the hunger and agility to operate in an environment that rewards initiative
• Strong ability to lead joint GTM planning and translate strategic goals into executable partner programs
• Comfortable navigating matrix organizations and influencing cross-functional teams without direct authority - on both sides of the partnership
• Structured, data-driven approach to planning and reporting; comfortable working in Salesforce
• Background in management consulting or experience owning a P&L or quota-carrying role is a strong plus
• You thrive with autonomy - you create your own path, hold yourself accountable, and decide where to invest your time to drive results
