You'll create and execute our channel sales strategy, building relationships with technology platforms who are in the know when a company is on the verge of shutting down. These partnerships form the foundation of our go-to-market strategy, generating revenue while delivering scalable, valuable solutions to customers throughout their shutdown journey.

• Strong understanding of partnerships involving API-based integrations, B2B SaaS, and financial technologies.
• Exceptional communication and influencing skills, capable of building long-term relationships internally and externally.
• Strategic thinker with the ability to also execute and deliver measurable results.
• Experience working in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment with an emphasis on creative problem-solving.
• High adaptability and willingness to travel occasionally to engage with partners and stakeholders.
• Ability to question the status quo
