Partner Manager

Demodesk · New Bremen, OH, USA ·

Pay:
97.087 - 142.775
Job type:
Full Time

Mission
Demodesk lives inside an ecosystem: CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive), dialers (Aircall, CloudCall, RingCentral), consultancies and agencies that implement sales tech for mid-market companies across Europe. Every one of those relationships is a channel, and right now they are underbuilt.

You will own partnerships end to end: sourcing, closing, activating, and scaling. That means CRM ecosystem partnerships that drive co-selling and marketplace presence, referral and reseller relationships with sales consultancies and RevOps agencies in the DACH region and beyond, and technology partnerships that expand what our AI agents can connect to. This is a build role, not a manage role. You will define the partner motion, prove it works, and lay the foundation for the partnerships function as we scale.

Goals

Build and own a partner pipeline: identify, pitch, and close referral, reseller, and technology partnerships

Activate CRM ecosystem partnerships (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive), from marketplace listings to co-marketing and co-selling motions

Recruit and enable sales consultancies, RevOps agencies, and system integrators as implementation and referral partners

Design partner economics: commission structures, enablement materials, certification paths

Run joint go-to-market campaigns with partners, in tandem with marketing

Own partner-sourced revenue as your north star metric

Represent Demodesk at ecosystem events and partner conferences across Europe

What you bring

3+ years in partnerships, channel sales, or business development at a B2B SaaS company

A track record of building partner relationships that generated measurable revenue, not just signed logos

Understanding of the CRM and sales tech ecosystem: you know how HubSpot and Salesforce partner programs work, or you learn ecosystems fast

Strong commercial instincts: partner deals are still deals, and you know how to structure and close them

Self‑direction: this is our first dedicated partnerships hire, and you will write the playbook

Fluent German and English (our strongest partner ecosystem is in the DACH region)

Existing relationships with sales consultancies, RevOps agencies, or CRM implementation partners in Europe

About Us
Demodesk is the AI that does the job, not the AI that tells you what to do. For ten years, sales AI has handed dashboards to overwhelmed reps and called it transformation. We built something different: AI agents that join every sales conversation, update the CRM, send the follow‑ups, coach reps after every call, and flag deals at risk before they slip.

Founded in Munich in 2018 and backed by $15M from Balderton, Y Combinator, and the founders of HubSpot and Pipedrive, we serve 300+ customers and 20,000+ sales professionals across Europe, including Porsche, Bosch, Treatwell, OMR, and Enpal. GDPR‑native, ISO 27001 certified, EU‑only data. We are still small enough that everyone's fingerprints are on the product.
