Deep understanding of B2B technology ecosystems, with a point of view on how partners can be positioned more creatively and strategically within go-to-market narratives.
Highly proactive, strategic self-starter who anticipates what’s next, surfaces new ideas, and independently pushes work forward in alignment with key objectives.
Exceptional collaboration and stakeholder management skills, with a demonstrated ability to influence and challenge assumptions, navigate complex stakeholder and partner relationships, and drive decisions in ambiguous environments with tact and nuance.
A personal and professional growth mindset, who thrives in fast-paced, high-expectation settings, and can balance multiple priorities while maintaining momentum, creativity, and quality under tight deadlines
Excellent written and verbal communication skills with strong attention to detail.
