Partner Management at Personio goes far beyond building a network. It is a core engine of our growth strategy.

This is a quota-carrying role, and you will hold direct responsibility for the partner-driven pipeline and new MRR. Therefore, making it ideal for a high-performing, results-driven professional. Partnering closely with local cross-functional teams from demand generation to product, you will ensure we deliver a seamless, localised experience for our UK&I customers.
Role Responsibilities: What you'll do
- Portfolio Strategy: Build and manage a balanced partner ecosystem (Referral, Consulting, System Integrators, Technology, and Strategic Partners) to maximize Personio’s reach and market fit in the UK&I.
- Community Leadership: Play a leading role in building a high-performing partnership community across the region.
- Commercial Growth: Identify and capitalise on revenue opportunities by segmenting your portfolio and co-developing actionable joint business plans.
- Solution Co-Creation: Partner closely with ecosystem members to co-create compelling solutions that drive adoption of our HR SaaS platform.
- Go-To-Market Execution: Develop and launch joint GTM plans, including co-marketing strategies, sales enablement, and team training programs.
- Events & Marketing: Plan and execute co-hosted partner events, campaigns, and communications within budget and timeline constraints, in collaboration with Personio Marketing.
- Performance Optimization: Continuously evaluate partnership metrics and optimize initiatives to maximize ROI.
- Cross-Functional Alignment: Serve as the primary interface between partners and internal teams (Sales, Product, Marketing, and UK&I Country Management) to align partner initiatives with core GTM priorities.
