New Relic is undergoing a fundamental shift in how we scale through the North American channel. We are moving away from a reactive, transactional model toward a proactive, distribution-led strategy. As the sole Senior Partner Sales Manager for Distribution, you will be the primary architect of this transformation.
This is a "Builder" role. You will lead two major initiatives:
- Public Sector (SLED) Transformation:
Overhaul the Carahsoft relationship. You will drive a shift in behavior, ensuring Carahsoft s sales desks are actively sourcing New Relic pipeline rather than just processing renewals. - Ingram Micro Onboarding:
Lead the end-to-end launch of Ingram Micro for NA commercial business. This includes standing up the partnership and driving enablement and sales campaigns. - "Long-Tail" Migration:
Personally manage the current high-volume of smaller North American partners while architecting the transition of their day-to-day operations over to Ingram Micro.
- 5+ Years in Channel/Distribution Sales:
Deep experience specifically with Carahsoft and/or Ingram Micro. You know how their internal sales desks are compensated and how to win "mindshare" on their floor. - Public Sector (SLED) Expertise:
You understand the nuances of US SLED procurement, contracts, and the role of a master aggregator like Carahsoft. - Change Management DNA:
You are comfortable telling partners (and internal teams) "the old way is over" and leading them through a new operational model. - Operational Excellence:
You can design a pricing sheet, draft an enablement deck, and run a Q with equal proficiency.
Build & Execute Mentality: You can prove that you have built and executed against similar strategies and love doing the role rather than simply designing the strategy.
