The Role

DataHub | Reports to Chief Marketing Officer

Partnerships are a core lever in DataHub's growth. We're hiring a Director of Alliances to own our partnership strategy end to end: building the systems that let partners help us close deals faster, deliver complete solutions, and generate new pipeline.

You'll build and run three interlocking motions: co-selling with hyperscalers and technology partners, certifying systems integrators to implement DataHub, and co-marketing with partners to source net new opportunities. This is a builder role. You'll design the playbooks, negotiate the agreements, and run the day to day partner relationships that turn strategy into revenue.

What You'll Own

Partner-Influenced (Co-Sell)

  • Build and run a structured, repeatable co-sell playbook with hyperscalers and other strategic technology partners
  • Register deals, introduce account executives to partner counterparts, and drive joint pursuit of opportunities
  • Own hyperscaler alliance relationships, including specialization and co-sell scoring programs
  • Grow the share of deals that are meaningfully influenced by a partner

Partner-Fulfilled (Certification)

  • Stand up a certification program for systems integrators, covering technical enablement, implementation, and specialized delivery tracks (such as compliance or migration work)
  • Build enablement content, technical training, and a tiered partner scoring model
  • Manage relationships with a portfolio of SI and GSI partners
  • Grow the number of certified partners who can independently deliver DataHub implementations

Partner-Sourced (Co-Marketing)

  • Identify and prioritize target accounts using partner pipeline, look-alike data, and joint account mapping
  • Plan and execute joint marketing programs, from webinars to executive events, tailored to technical, business, and economic buyer personas
  • Build joint partner pages, co-branded content, and the tracking infrastructure needed to attribute partner-sourced pipeline
  • Grow the volume of net new opportunities sourced through partners

Program and Relationship Management

  • Own the partnership roadmap and planning cadence, coordinating across sales, marketing, and product
  • Negotiate and manage partnership agreements
  • Represent DataHub at partner and industry events, including partner participation in DataHub's own conference and field events
  • Partner closely with the technical enablement and events functions to deliver a complete partner experience

What You'll Bring

  • 7+ years in partnerships, alliances, or channel roles at an enterprise software or data infrastructure company
  • Direct experience building or scaling co-sell programs with hyperscalers (AWS, Google Cloud, Azure)
  • Experience standing up SI/GSI partner programs, including certification and enablement
  • A track record of turning partnerships into measurable pipeline and revenue, not just signed agreements
  • Comfort operating at both strategic and hands on levels: you can build a three year alliance strategy and also personally register a deal in APN
  • Strong cross functional collaborator, able to align sales, marketing, and product around shared partner goals
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills for partner negotiations and executive reporting

Nice to Have

  • Familiarity with the data catalog, data governance, or metadata management space
  • Experience with compliance or regulatory frameworks relevant to regulated industries
  • Existing relationships within the AWS, Google Cloud, or major SI partner ecosystems
