Overview

Join to apply for the Partner Sales Manager - IHV Alliances role at Canonical .

Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets. Our platform, Ubuntu, is widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives in public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT. Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors. Canonical is founder-led, profitable and growing, with 1200+ colleagues in 75+ countries and very few office-based roles. Teams meet two to four times yearly in person to align on strategy and execution.

We are hiring a Partner Sales Manager to be a key contributing team member within the growing IHV alliances organization. Large OEM or IHV brands — Dell, HPE, IBM, Lenovo, Ericsson, Cisco, Fujitsu and many more — are major partners for Canonical. These companies build software-defined solutions to capitalize on global open source mandates and macro trends. Canonical's flagship product, Ubuntu, and its broader open source portfolio are key ingredients for these partners to realize their aspirations. Canonical represents the best platform for rapid open source innovation.

Reporting to the Head of IHV Alliances, the Partner Sales Manager will work closely with IHV and Canonical teams in various geographies to enable IHV teams, generate and transact opportunities, drive a Canonical agenda within an IHV, and achieve targeted results. They are responsible to build trusted relationships with our partners, increase Canonical market share and attach rate, evangelize the partnership and drive business interactions from across persona — from engineer to CxO. They will often run customer workshops focused on particular initiatives at that customer, attend sales events, give public presentations and participate in executive engagements.
