Position Overview Showpad is a global leader in sales enablement, helping revenue teams deliver better buyer experiences and drive measurable business outcomes. Its platform connects content, training, coaching, and analytics to enable sales teams to perform at their best across the entire buyer journey.

Following Showpad’s recent merger with BigTinCan, the combined business is making a significant strategic investment in innovation, scale, and go‑to‑market execution. A core focus of this next phase is the accelerated use of AI‑driven capabilities to enhance sales productivity, buyer engagement, and revenue intelligence for enterprise customers globally.

As part of this strategy, Showpad is deliberately investing in Strategic Partnerships and Channels as a key growth lever. Partnerships are central to extending market reach, accelerating international expansion, reducing customer acquisition costs, and embedding Showpad more deeply within the enterprise technology ecosystem. This includes the rollout of a reseller channel in France and the Nordics, followed by expansion into India, Japan, and additional priority markets, alongside the development of strong local and global strategic alliances.

This role sits at the heart of that investment and will play a pivotal part in shaping how Showpad scales its partner ecosystem globally in the years ahead.
