What We Are Looking for We are hiring a revenue-carrying Director, Strategic Alliances to own and expand a small number of high-impact enterprise partnerships that directly drive pipeline and ARR. Reporting to the CRO, this role is responsible for converting strategic alliances into scalable commercial outcomes through co-sell execution with ISV partners, embedded GTM motions, and enterprise expansion.

What You’ll Work On: Lead Persado’s strategic alliances and drive partner-sourced pipeline and ARR. Build and scale partner-led distribution motions where alliance partners actively identify, position, and introduce Persado into customer opportunities. Expand Persado within broader partner-led customer engagement and transformation initiatives. Drive complex enterprise opportunities from initial partner-led pilot engagements through scaled, multi-year enterprise expansion. Lead joint account planning, executive alignment, QBRs, pipeline reviews, and alliance governance. Navigate enterprise procurement, legal, compliance, security, and stakeholder management processes. Build enablement frameworks, success metrics, and operational processes that improve alliance execution. Partner cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Marketing, Solutions Consulting, and Customer Success to accelerate revenue growth. Requirements What You Bring 10+ years in strategic alliances, partnerships, enterprise GTM, or complex enterprise sales within SaaS, MarTech, FinTech, AdTech, data, or related enterprise technology sectors. Experience scaling partnerships generating $3M–$5M+ ARR. Proven success scaling strategic alliances with organizations such as AWS, Salesforce, Mastercard, Adobe, Stripe, Snowflake, major ISVs, hyperscalers, or similar ecosystem partners. Experience owning or materially influencing at least $2M+ annual partner-sourced ARR /  as well as experience deeply operating a small number of strategic enterprise alliances (vs. managing a partner portfolio). Demonstrated ability to grow partnerships from early engagements into broader enterprise adoption. Experience closing and expanding enterprise deals with $500K+ ACV and multi-year commercial structures. Strong executive presence and experience navigating enterprise procurement, compliance, and legal processes. Ability to clearly articulate metrics including pipeline generated, ACV, sales cycles, expansion outcomes, etc.
