Anaplan is looking for an entrepreneurial and highly strategic VP, Global Partner Strategic Growth. This is a stellar opportunity to get involved in a highly visible, global role within a leading SaaS cloud company. If you are an ecosystem builder who thrives on taking a strategy from its infancy, rolling up your sleeves to drive execution, and building a high-performing global team from the ground up, keep reading.
This role is the "tip of the spear" for Anaplan's ecosystem organization. You will be responsible for incubating new partner growth motions—building innovative global partnerships and strategies, and then successfully translating those into go-to-market motions executed through our regional partner sales teams.
Your initial focus will be heavily centered on developing Technology, Data/AI, and Cloud partnerships, alongside piloting the Partner Apps program and designing new System Integrator (SI) partnership types and commercial models (such as Managed Services Partnerships). You will own this function end-to-end: from initial strategy development and team build-out to hands-on incubation, performance management, and scaling.
This role will report directly to the SVP, Global Partner & Alliances.
Strategy & Partnership Incubation
The ideal candidate is an agile, strategic leader with deep ecosystem credibility and technical acumen. You are comfortable with ambiguity, possess an entrepreneurial mindset, and have a proven track record of bringing order to complex, unchartered partner environments.
Performance in this role will be measured on strategic progress as well as quantitative commercial outcomes:
