🚀 Our story
Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts and we're doing that by building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our big vision is to accelerate the world toward a sustainable future where anyone can fix anything.
Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise cutting-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry.

Strategic Account Manager
The Strategic Account Manager owns post-sale success for parts suppliers on the Partly Network and reports directly to the GM of Europe.
This role is responsible for ensuring suppliers achieve measurable commercial and operational value from Partly’s infrastructure. It sits at the intersection of supplier relationships, product delivery, and engineering execution, and requires deep ownership of supplier issues in a fast-moving, evolving product environment.
💻 What will you do
Own strategic supplier relationships
Develop trusted, long-term partnerships with parts suppliers, acting as the primary post-sale owner and point of accountability. Ensure strong adoption, retention, and long-term value realisation from Partly.
Own supplier issues end-to-end
Take full ownership of supplier issues from initial report through root cause analysis, resolution, and follow-up. Work closely with product and engineering teams to drive issues to ground rather than simply escalating them.
Translate supplier problems into product execution
Convert supplier pain points and operational challenges into clear, actionable product requirements. Produce written problem statements, reproduction steps, and expected outcomes to enable fast, effective execution by engineering.
Lead onboarding and ongoing success
Own the end-to-end post-sale journey including onboarding, implementation coordination, and ongoing success management. Ensure suppliers are set up to operate successfully on Partly infrastructure from day one.
Drive measurable business outcomes
Develop a deep understanding of each supplier’s KPIs, revenue drivers, and operational constraints. Through regular reviews, identify and execute opportunities where Partly can unlock incremental value, efficiency, or growth.
Operate with urgency in an evolving environment
Work effectively in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment where product capabilities and processes are still developing. Maintain momentum, prioritise effectively, and drive progress despite incomplete information.
Build scalable success foundations
Design and evolve lightweight processes, tooling, and documentation that allow supplier success to scale without compromising accountability or responsiveness.
🥷 Your skills
Senior stakeholder management
Comfortable working with senior leaders at complex organisations. Able to manage expectations, navigate ambiguity, and maintain trust during periods of change or product instability.
Strong communicator across technical and commercial audiences

🪅 Benefits
- High trust, low process and no bureaucracy. We hire exceptional people whose judgment we trust. This means we proactively remove any process or rules that slow us down (for example, our expense policy is simply the “red face test”).
- Competitive base salary + equity. We offer competitive salaries and generous equity options for all full-time employees, ensuring everyone shares in the financial upside when we win.
- Flexible working hours. Choose when to work based on what time you’re most effective (no mandatory or set hours). We combine flexibility with an office-first approach (in cities where we have critical mass, i.e. London, Christchurch, Auckland).
- Focus Days. Two days per week, with zero meetings, dedicated solely to uninterrupted deep work
- Take time when you need it. We don’t ask questions or care if people have a negative leave balance. We work extremely hard and trust our team to take the time they need to recharge.
