Senior Partner Manager (German speaking)

Role Overview

We’re looking for an ambitious, German-speaking Senior Partner Manager to build and scale Perk’s partner ecosystem across Europe, with a particular focus on the DACH region. This is a commercial role with a clear objective: build partnerships that generate qualified sales pipeline and revenue for Perk.

What You Will Do

Build our partner ecosystem, generate pipeline and revenue, create joint go-to-market strategies, own the commercial relationship, activate and enable partners, partner closely with Sales and Marketing, measure and improve performance, and bring new opportunities to Perk.

Why It Might Be a Fit

We’re looking for someone with a builder’s mindset, strong commercial instincts, and the ability to assess which opportunities are worth pursuing, structure mutually valuable partnerships, and focus time on the relationships most likely to produce meaningful results.

Requirements

• Native or near-native fluency in German and professional fluency in English
• Proven success in partnerships, alliances, channel sales, or business development, ideally within SaaS, fintech, travel technology, or another B2B technology environment
• Hands on experience working with ERP, accounting and finance automation vendors and their partner ecosystems
• Commercial performance: A history of building partnerships that generate measurable sales pipeline and revenue against targets
• Builder mentality: Comfortable developing new partner relationships and go-to-market motions from scratch rather than simply managing an established programme
• Executive presence: Strong communication and presentation skills, with the credibility to build relationships and negotiate with senior and C-level stakeholders
• Commercial judgment: Able to assess which opportunities are worth pursuing, structure mutually valuable partnerships, and focus time on the relationships most likely to produce meaningful results
• Cross-functional mindset: A low-ego, team-first approach and the ability to work effectively across Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Product, and other teams
• Ownership: Independent, ambitious, persistent, and comfortable being accountable for outcomes
