As Clay continues to scale upmarket and expand its partner-led motion, we’re investing in dedicated Partner Managers who will own the sales execution layer of our solutions partner relationships.
This role sits at the intersection of Partnerships and Sales, with a clear mandate: drive partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline through structured co-sell motions, account mapping, referrals, and joint execution.

Translate what works into scalable infrastructure: tooling, playbooks, and repeatable workflows
Drive rigor across deal registration, partner engagement, and pipeline hygiene
Manage partner capacity and capability alignment to match opportunities with proven domain expertise
Market Activation and Collaboration
Drive joint GTM efforts with partners: co-hosted webinars, executive roundtables, and thought leadership
Collaborate with GTM Ops, Solutions Engineering, Legal, and Sales Leadership on deal routing, attribution, and forecasting
Support the evolution of partner-led sales motions, including reseller opportunities for lower-touch segments
What you’ll bring
4–7+ years of experience in sales, B2B partnerships, business development, or ecosystem roles at a B2B SaaS company
Hands-on experience working with solutions partners, agencies, or SIs, especially in enterprise co-sell, referral, or partner-sourced revenue motions
