Regional Partner Manager, Dach

Notion Notion · Enterprise · Munich, Germany · Sales

Notion is seeking a Regional Partner Manager for the DACH market to own and grow their partner ecosystem, focusing on value-added resellers, hyperscaler partnerships, and local services partners. This role involves building and executing go-to-market programs, driving revenue through partners, and collaborating with sales and marketing teams to expand Notion's reach in the region. The ideal candidate is a builder with a strong commercial acumen and experience in enterprise SaaS partnerships.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own and grow Notion's DACH partner ecosystem across value-added resellers, cloud/hyperscaler partnerships, and local services partners
  2. Build and execute joint go-to-market programs with regional VARs and solutions partners
  3. Manage Notion's hyperscaler partnerships in DACH, overseeing cloud marketplace deal flow and co-sell motions
  4. Align partner activity directly to the DACH sales team's pipeline — facilitating introductions, mapping accounts, and driving resell and co-sell opportunities to close
  5. Coordinate joint initiatives that bring together reseller partners and hyperscaler ecosystems for combined enterprise programs

Skills

Required

  • 10+ years of experience in partnerships, channel sales, or alliances in the enterprise SaaS or cloud software industry
  • Demonstrated experience managing both VAR/reseller programs and at least one cloud or hyperscaler partnership — comfort across both partner types is essential
  • A builder's track record: you've stood up partner programs and can point to outcomes you drove
  • Strong demand generation orientation
  • Commercially sharp with the ability to connect partner activity to revenue outcomes
  • Highly collaborative and effective working alongside direct sales teams — you understand what reps need, and you make their lives easier
  • Executive presence and strong relationship-building skills; you're as comfortable presenting to a partner CRO as you are coordinating logistics with a partner marketing manager
  • Experience working in or alongside hyper-growth or startup environments — you're comfortable with ambiguity and moving fast without a complete playbook
  • Based in Munich with existing knowledge of the DACH technology market; willingness to travel across EMEA and occasionally across EMEA
  • Strong organisational and operational discipline — you manage multiple active partner relationships without dropping balls, and you communicate proactively

Nice to have

  • Experience with cloud marketplace programs and hyperscaler co-sell motions
  • Familiarity with product-led growth (PLG) or bottoms-up SaaS go-to-market models
  • Existing relationships with DACH-based VARs, systems integrators, or hyperscaler partner teams
  • Cross-market EMEA experience — e.g. managing partnerships across EMEA regions simultaneously

What the JD emphasized
