📍 Locations: London, UK, covering the full EMEA region

📣 Summary: Be the first EMEA partnerships hire at a profitable, product-led go-to-market platform at ~$250m ARR, building the agency partner programme from a blank canvas.

Job Summary

A Series D, profitable go-to-market platform is investing heavily in partnerships over the next six months to two years, and this is the first dedicated partnerships role in EMEA. There is no agency programme in the region today, so you build it from scratch.

The focus is a programmatic, one-to-many agency ecosystem rather than a few large systems integrators. The first priority is RevOps and go-to-market agencies already working in the HubSpot and Salesforce ecosystems, with a possible technology alliances element where European language skills help.

You start as a hands-on IC who also sets the EMEA partnerships strategy, with a short path to building and leading a London-based team. The timing depends on your seniority and ambition, and the wider EMEA team is doubling from 20 to 40.

Experience Required

• Built a programmatic, one-to-many agency partner programme, not a one-to-few GSI model

• Built and managed a referral network of agencies, ideally RevOps and go-to-market agencies in the HubSpot and Salesforce ecosystems

• Product-led growth background, with a clear grasp of customers who find and use the product without direct sales contact

• Senior enough to own EMEA partnerships strategy, and happy to do the hands-on work at the start

• The ambition and capability to build and lead a team in the short term

• Entrepreneurial, and excited by a blank canvas and a role that evolves from IC to leader

• Technology alliances exposure and European languages are a plus

• Based in, or able to be based in, London

The Application Process

• Recruiter screen: 30 minute video call with Unicorn

• Hiring manager interview: 45 minute conversation with the Head of Partnerships

• Team interview: meeting with a member of the team, on Zoom or face to face

• Presentation: prepare and deliver a short presentation

• Final interviews: conversations with the US-based Technology Alliances Partner and a recent hire on the partnerships team
