We are hiring a Partner Sales Manager to be a key contributing team member within the growing Dell alliances organization.

Canonical represents the best platform for rapid open source innovation.

They are responsible to build trusted relationships with Dell, increase Canonical market share and attach rate, evangelize the partnership and drive business interactions from across persona - from engineer to CxO. They will often run customer workshops focused on particular initiatives at that customer, attend sales events, give public presentations and participate in executive engagements as coordinated by the Senior Director.

The role entails

• Build strategic relationships and enable Dell teams on the partnership
• Build pipeline and transact opportunities through Dell
• Grow Dell's awareness of open source capabilities on Canonical Ubuntu
• Demonstrate a deep understanding of the Linux and cloud software ecosystem
• Deliver on targets, objectives and provide a voice of the partner
• Travel regularly - sometimes internationally - to drive partnerships in person
• Align and support internal canonical field teams - identify, support, grow, transact
• Expand existing footprint with Dell customers with an aim to upsell to broader portfolio
• Support and contribute to broader strategy, initiatives and key campaigns as defined by the Senior Director
