  • Develop KPIs to define, measure, and drive success of partnerships.
  • Work closely with the VP, Strategic Partnerships and Databricks executive team to scale thought leadership for new opportunities.

What we look for:

  • Minimum of 7+ years of experience in business development, corporate development, or consulting.
  • Proven track record negotiating highly bespoke commercial arrangements with C-suite level counterparties.
  • Strong analytical skills, with proficiency in developing first-principles and data-driven business cases and strategic plans using a variety of tools.
  • Strong understanding of GTM and sales motions that drive partnership success.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, capable of distilling complex analyses into clear messaging for executives and stakeholders.
  • Strong judgment, ownership, and cross-functional leadership.
  • Ability to drive deal processes autonomously as the deal lead.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
