Individually, and together, we work to fuel your growth and deliver measurable impact.  The Role At Conversion, we don’t just "use" tools; we maximize their ROI. Many enterprises invest millions on "Best-of-Breed" technology stacks, yet most only scratch the surface of their tool’s potential. Your mission is to bridge that gap. Reporting to the VP, Growth at GAIN Conversion you will be the primary link between our top-tier technology partners and our world-class services, ensuring that companies realize the value these tools promise to provide.  Responsibilities Partner Ecosystem Support, Technical Enablement & Referral Management - Drive Inbound Lead Gen: Build and maintain deep-rooted relationships with Account Executives (AEs) and Customer Success Managers (CSMs) at technology partners. - Acting as a technical point of contact for these partner AEs and CSMs stakeholders. You’ll answer "Can GAIN Conversion do X with this tool?" and provide the technical confidence needed to move a referral forward. - Educate partners on how GAIN Conversion services as a critical compliment to their software’s success. - Asset Creation: Develop "Value Realization" playbooks and technical one-pagers that partners can use to pitch Conversion’s services. - Agnostic Support: Maintain a working knowledge of our primary partner ecosystem to provide neutral, helpful advice to clients and prospects. - Partner Diplomacy: Navigate the delicate politics of a multi-partner ecosystem, ensuring we remain a trusted, neutral advisor to our clients while staying "top of mind" for all major tech partners.

If you identify gaps in our internal team's knowledge, you facilitate bringing in the partners to upskill our team on the latest features and capabilities. You aren't the trainer, but you are the orchestrator. - The Handover: Once the contract is signed, transition the knowledge you have gained through the sales process and partnership discussion to our delivery teams so they can hit the ground running. You will then step back from day-to-day operations but remain the strategic "North Star" for the account, conducting periodic check-ins to ensure we are delivering the value you promised.
