Workera
Head Of Partnerships
If you thrive on building something from the ground up and love creating meaningful, high-impact partnerships, this role is for you. At Workera, we're redefining how the world measures and grows skills through AI‑powered insights. As our Director of Partnerships, you'll oversee the development and execution of our partnership channel system, managing relationships with integrated partners, resellers, and other strategic collaborators. You'll report directly to the Chief Sales Officer, serving as a key architect in shaping our global partner strategy.
You'll lead the creation of strategic, integrated partnerships with large, enterprise clients helping organizations around the world unlock their talent potential through Workera's Skills Intelligence Platform. This role is ideal for someone who's both strategic and hands‑on builder who's comfortable experimenting, iterating, and influencing without layers of hierarchy.
About You You're someone who thrives in ambiguity and finds energy in creating clarity. You love the challenge of shaping new markets and designing partnerships that don't yet exist. You're motivated by impact over status, and you bring a scrappy, entrepreneurial spirit to everything you do.
You'll succeed here if you :
Excel at building trust and driving momentum in 1 : 1 partnerships
Have an opinionated view of how modern partner ecosystems should work especially around deal recognition, enablement, and partner portals
Are excited by AI and believe in its potential to transform work
Value collaboration and accountability in a global, async-first environment
What You'll Do In your first 2 months, you'll :
Learn our existing partnership ecosystem inside and out – what's working, what's not, and where we can grow
Build strong relationships with key partners and internal stakeholders
Craft a partner engagement and enablement strategy from onboarding to joint success
Define clear KPIs to measure partnership performance
By 4 months, you'll :
Demonstrate measurable partnership-driven impact
Refine the onboarding experience for new partners
Launch joint go‑to‑market initiatives with integrated and reseller partners
Collaborate with Sales, Marketing, and Product to align partnership goals with company objectives
By 6 months and beyond, you'll :
Drive strong results across all partnership goals.
Grow the program by securing new, high‑impact partners.
Improve how we manage partnerships using data and feedback.
Act as the main link between partners and internal teams to keep everyone aligned and successful.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
Revenue growth from partnership channels.
Number of new partnerships established.
Partner satisfaction and retention rates.
Success of joint marketing and sales initiatives.
Efficiency of the partner onboarding process.
Please note as we are a dynamic and quickly growing scale up, things are always subject to change
What You'll Bring
Deep experience in partnership management or business development, ideally within SaaS, AI, or HR tech
Proven success creating reseller and integrated partnerships that drive business outcomes
A hands‑on, experimental mindset; you're not coming from a huge partnership machine, you're used to rolling up your sleeves
Experience working across geographies + experience with Japanese and European markets
Comfort using CRM and partner management tools (Salesforce preferred)
Strategic vision combined with a bias for execution and continuous improvement
