Role Description

New Relic is looking for a strategic, high-energy Senior Cloud Partner Sales Manager to scale our co-sell ecosystem with cloud.

  • Bridge the Gap: Serve as the primary liaison between New Relic’s internal sales leadership (AVPs, RVPs, and Account Executives) and AWS/MSFT partner sales teams.
  • Co-Sell Execution: Drive the day-to-day co-sell motion, mapping accounts, identifying new logos, and accelerating existing deals via AWS Marketplace and Azure Marketplace.
  • Pipeline Generation: Build and execute regional partner plans that generate qualified pipeline, leveraging cloud provider funding programs, incentives, and credits.
• Relationship & Alliance Management
  • Build Cloud Networks: Cultivate deep, trusted relationships with AWS and MSFT Partner Development Managers (PDMs), Cloud Account Managers, and field sales leadership.
  • Evangelism: Educate cloud partner sales teams on New Relic’s value proposition, ensuring we are top-of-mind for cloud migration, modernization, and observability initiatives.
• Operations & Governance
  • Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs): Own and lead QBRs with both internal sales leaders and cloud partner stakeholders to track KPIs, pipeline health, and strategic wins.
  • Deal Governance: Navigate and optimize cloud marketplace listing mechanisms, private offers (CPPO/MPO), and cloud consumption commitments (EDPs/MACC).

Requirements

• Experience: 7+ years of experience in Enterprise Software Sales, Business Development, or Partner/Alliance Management—with at least 5+ years specifically managing AWS or Microsoft Azure partnerships.
• Co-Sell Expertise: Proven track record of navigating the AWS and/or MSFT co-sell ecosystem, cloud marketplaces, and field organization structures.
• Sales Acumen: Strong understanding of enterprise sales cycles. You know how to talk to an Enterprise Account Executive and help them close deals faster using cloud partnerships.
