About The Role

This role leads the team responsible for driving strategic alignment between BT and its key Security, Voice, Hyperscaler and Global Systems Integrator (GSI) partners.

Working across sales, product, marketing, commercial and enablement functions, you will ensure BT maximises value from its partner ecosystem while delivering measurable commercial outcomes.

This is a highly visible leadership role that combines people leadership, strategic planning and commercial execution. The successful candidate will play a key role in determining where BT invests across its partnership portfolio and how strategic partner relationships are translated into customer value, pipeline growth and long-term commercial success.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead a team of Partner Managers responsible for driving growth across BT's Security, Voice, Hyperscaler and GSI partner ecosystem.
  • Own BT Business's strategic relationships with Microsoft across Security, Voice, Licensing and Cloud, aligning partner priorities with BT's commercial objectives.
  • Build and deliver partnership strategies and joint go-to-market plans that accelerate revenue growth, customer value and market differentiation.
  • Lead governance and performance management with key partners including Microsoft, RingCentral, Genesys, Security vendors, Hyperscalers and GSIs through QBRs, trading reviews and executive engagement.
  • Work with sales, product, marketing and enablement teams to turn partner strategies into measurable pipeline, revenue and customer outcomes.
  • Identify and develop new growth opportunities, proposition innovations and market initiatives across the partner portfolio.
  • Influence investment decisions, helping BT prioritise the partnerships, programmes and opportunities that will deliver the greatest commercial impact.
  • Coach and develop a high-performing team, creating a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
