About The Position

Bose Professional is seeking a Market & Partner Growth Director, US South Central to drive regional revenue performance and enhance the effectiveness of its channel ecosystem. This role involves leading and developing a team to achieve predictable growth through strategic partner enablement, direct selling, and a structured operating cadence. A key aspect of this role is a Partner-Growth Business Developer mindset, focused on making channel partners more successful by improving win rates, increasing deal velocity, expanding system attachment and margin, and fostering loyalty. The ideal candidate will possess deep knowledge and passion for commercial audio solutions (background/foreground music, media, paging) and performance audio systems (live sound reinforcement), with the ability to translate system capabilities into customer outcomes across various markets like lodging, retail, restaurant, fitness, higher education, houses of worship, and corporate. This role requires a "mini-CEO" approach to managing the region, including presenting business plans to cross-functional leaders and collaborating effectively within a hybrid sales organization of independent rep firms and direct sales resources.

Requirements

5+ years quota-carrying success in professional audio (or commercial AV/installed systems) with consistent over-performance; proven ability to run a region with clear targets, pipeline coverage, and forecast discipline—primarily through channel ecosystems (rep firms, distributors, dealers/integrators).
Strong solutions-selling expertise across commercial audio (BGM/FGM, media, paging/PA, multi-zone) and performance audio/live sound reinforcement, translating technical capability into business outcomes for end users, consultants, and integrators.
Vertical credibility and relationships with a track record of wins in Hospitality/Lodging, Retail, Restaurant, Fitness, Higher Education, Corporate, and House of Worship, including influence-chain familiarity (consultants/specifiers, designers, integrators, IT/Facilities, GC/EC).
Rep-firm and channel leadership mindset: demonstrated ability to coach and develop sales teams and especially rep firms to measurable improvements in win rate, deal velocity, attachment, and margin, using operating rhythms (joint account planning, pursuit reviews, QBRs) and scalable enablement (playbooks, pursuit kits, vertical packages, demo scripts, battlecards).
Data-driven regional management: strong proficiency using CRM (Salesforce or equivalent) and reporting to manage pipeline hygiene, stage discipline, conversion, and forecasting—and to teach partners how to use CRM/shared data to improve coverage and execution.
Strong communication and ownership: confident presenter who can build and communicate a regional business plan, align cross-functional teams, remove obstacles, and drive campaign/NPI execution with clear priorities and follow-through.
Experience executing new product introductions (NPI) and regional campaign rollouts—turning messaging and enablement into pipeline creation and measurable adoption.
Track record of building enablement content or tools that scale (playbooks, pursuit kits, vertical packages, demo scripts, battlecards) and raising partner capability over time.
Familiarity with the consultant/specification community and the ability to drive specification influence, basis-of-design positioning, and long-range opportunity development.

Responsibilities

Own the region like a mini-CEO by creating and presenting a clear regional business plan (targets, coverage, priorities, risks, and investment needs) to the company’s cross-functional leaders to unlock resources and accelerate growth.
Grow and enable rep firms by measurably improving win rate, deal velocity, system attachment, and margin through a structured partner-growth cadence (coaching, joint sales calls, pursuit stand-ups/QBRs, customized Pursuit Kits, and 60–90 day Partner Growth Plans that target specific leverage points).
Grow and enable direct and indirect resellers by improving pipeline conversion, attach, and profitability through joint account planning, enablement sessions, deal support, solution packaging, and consistent execution of campaigns, tools, and sales process.
Serve direct accounts—leading strategic pursuits, key accounts, and major opportunities, and modeling best-practice discovery, value selling, and close plans.
Develop and maintain strong relationships with key customers, consultants, and partner principals to ensure high satisfaction, retention, and long-term share of wallet growth.
Drive market development by identifying and pursuing new business opportunities, expanding into new accounts/influencers, and executing vertical growth and penetration strategies.
Lead new product introduction and campaign execution in the region by partnering with Marketing and Product to translate messaging into enablement, pipeline creation, and wins.
Conduct market and competitive analysis to identify trends, threats, and opportunities—routing field insights back to Marketing and Product to sharpen plays, packaging, and tools.
Represent the company externally through industry events, conferences, and key partner/customer engagements to increase visibility and demand creation.
Support company objectives by completing additional tasks as needed.
