VP of Partnerships - fully remote!

role at

Inflect

What You Will Do

You will be focused on driving revenue by putting offerings 'on the shelves' of our marketplace by building and growing partnerships with service providers. You will secure partnerships with providers of services valuable to our buyers including colocation, cloud, network and other related services and you will work closely with them to embed our tools and capture their customer demand for related services. You will also partner with the VP of Sales and Director of Marketing to craft and get internal buy-in on actionable plans to drive revenue via marketing, sponsorship, and partnership programs, and you'll execute on these plans with internal and external teams. Your ability to implement and deliver will be crucial in transforming our revenue engine into a high-performance machine. This is a player-coach leadership position where rolling up your sleeves, empowering your team, and making immediate, measurable changes while ensuring flawless operational execution is key.

Who You Are

You are a revenue-obsessed connector who sees partnerships not as a transaction, but as the core engine for marketplace growth. You have a proven history of not just landing logos, but building enduring, high-yield relationships that dramatically expand market presence and platform utility. You thrive at the negotiation table, balancing empathy for a provider's needs with an unyielding focus on what drives value for our users and revenue for Inflect. You are a player-coach leader who is just as comfortable closing a foundational deal as you are defining the three-year partnership strategy. You speak fluent market dynamics, obsess over time-to-revenue, and know how to translate a handshake into a scalable, repeatable playbook. You love diving into the details of provider APIs and integration points, ensuring the technical setup is as smooth as the commercial terms and you believe that great partnerships are invisible to the user—they just see the product they need, ready to buy. You are an owner, a driver, and a decisive executor who knows that in the startup world, speed is currency.
