Affiliate Community Manager at Influencer, scaling affiliate communities and enhancing creator engagement across EMEA. Engaging with creators to maximize community performance and drive social commerce impact.
About the role
- Head of Global Partner Ecosystem at Cohere, responsible for maximizing values from strategic partnerships. Lead global teams and develop partner programs to achieve revenue goals.
Responsibilities
- Define and own the Cohere Partner Program and resale models across all partner types, partnering with Finance on the commercial structure.
- Hold full accountability for partner-sourced and partner-influenced ARR, pipeline contribution, and deal velocity.
- Translate the GTM partner strategy into a clear, measurable operating plan with quarterly and annual milestones tied to Cohere's revenue goals.
- Lead, develop, and scale an existing team of senior Partner Development Managers (North America-based, global coverage) and regional Partner Managers across EMEA, APAC, and the Americas.
- Set clear targets, performance expectations, and career development plans for the partnerships team.
- Build the operational infrastructure — cadences, playbooks, partner success metrics — that enables a high-performing global team to execute consistently.
- Own the relationships with Cohere's most strategic GSI partners including co-sell programs, practice development, and joint pipeline.
- Drive GSI practice activation: enablement programs, certification paths, joint solution development, and co-marketing investments.
- Drive co-sell and marketplace motions with CSP marketplaces in close coordination with the sales team — expanding Cohere's reach and accelerating deal cycles through cloud partner ecosystems.
- Collaborate with the business development team to manage the GTM investment in hyperscaler partner programs, optimizing for joint pipeline and marketplace revenue.
- Extend Cohere's platform value and create pull-through revenue opportunities with key partners.
- Develop and manage reseller and VAR partnerships for markets where a channel-first motion drives the most efficient revenue growth.
- Partner closely with Finance, Sales, Customer Experience, Product, and Marketing to develop joint GTM assets, integration certifications, and partner-ready playbooks.
- Represent Cohere at key partner QBRs, executive briefings, and industry events globally.
Requirements
- 12+ years of experience in technology partnerships, channel sales, or alliances, with a demonstrable track record of scaling a partner program to material revenue contribution — not just relationship management.
- Proven experience owning a partner-sourced or partner-influenced revenue number at VP or senior director level; you have been accountable to the Executive team for partnership ARR.
- Deep expertise managing GSI relationships at a senior level — you have built practices, run co-sell programs, and navigated the hierarchies of large global consulting firms.
- Hands-on experience with hyperscaler co-sell and marketplace programs
- Experience building and leading global or multi-regional partner teams — you understand how to localize GTM motions without losing strategic coherence.
- Strong commercial instincts — you know how to structure partner deals, design incentive programs, and hold partners accountable to joint commitments.
- Executive presence and comfort presenting joint business plans at the C-suite level, both internally and with partners.
- Experience scaling a partner ecosystem through a high-growth or pre-IPO stage at a technology company.
- Experience in AI, cloud infrastructure, data platforms, or enterprise software.
