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

The ideal person combines a builder’s mindset with strong commercial instincts, is comfortable opening doors, creating something from scratch, and earning the trust of senior stakeholders, and is ambitious, persistent, and focused on measurable 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
• A history of building partnerships that generate measurable sales pipeline and revenue against targets
• Comfortable developing new partner relationships and go-to-market motions from scratch rather than simply managing an established programme
• Strong communication and presentation skills, with the credibility to build relationships and negotiate with senior and C-level stakeholders
• Able to assess which opportunities are worth pursuing, structure mutually valuable partnerships, and focus time on the relationships most likely to produce meaningful results
• Independent, ambitious, persistent, and comfortable being accountable for outcomes

Benefits

• 30 days of annual leave to rest and recharge, plus all public holidays
• Your choice of perk: a gym membership (Urban Sports Club) or a BVG public transport ticket
• Competitive compensation paired with equity in Perk
• Unforgettable team experiences, including our annual summer party
• Comprehensive wellbeing support through Spring Health, offering fast access to 12 therapy and 12 coaching sessions for you and your loved ones
• Flexible compensation options to help your money go further
• 17 weeks of paid parental leave during your child’s first year
• 16 paid volunteer hours each year to give back to causes you care about
• Up to 20 “Work From Anywhere” days annually to explore the world while staying connected
• A fully paid four-week sabbatical after five years with Perk
• Relocation support to help you move seamlessly into one of our hubs
