Strategic Partnership Manager

ABC Industries was founded in 1962 and is one of the leading providers of specialty widgets in the world. Our company is well known for a vibrant and collaborative culture where innovation thrives, and every team member feels valued and empowered. We believe in open communication, mutual respect, and a supportive environment that encourages growth and development. We’re passionate about creating a workplace where people can be their best selves, make a real impact, and enjoy their work.

Lever was founded to tackle the most strategic challenge that companies face: how to recruit and hire top talent. We’re building the next generation of hiring software that companies like Netflix, Yelp, Cirque du Soleil, Shopify, and Eventbrite rely on to grow their teams. We’ve rethought the talent acquisition paradigm and are the innovation leaders in our space and looking for the right people to join us as we scale.

As Lever reimagines the role of recruiting software and the importance of a cohesive talent cloud, our ability to deliver highly impactful and strategic partnerships in the HR Tech space becomes imperative and front and center of our growth plans. Lever customers love our seamless partner integrations and our ability to increase the number and quality of those partnerships is of the utmost importance.

We need a strategic thinker who is adept at engaging existing and prospective partners to deliver on ambitious revenue goals and to increase the partner offerings for Lever customers. Additionally we need someone to work closely with our Sales, Marketing, and Success teams to ensure they understand and are trained to articulate the value of our current partner offerings.

This is a unique opportunity for a go-getter who is comfortable with navigating ambiguity and creating processes to scale a high-growth business through existing and future partnerships. This is an opportunity to work across the entire Talent sector and to transform the way our customers think about HR Tech.
