The Role:

Nitro is reshaping the digital document workflow landscape, and our focused expansion in the North American market is pivotal to this transformative vision. We are on the lookout for a Lead Channel Account Manager (LCAM) for NAMER who combines a strategic mindset, exceptional problem-solving acumen, and a hunter's drive for new business. The ideal candidate will have experience leading teams or the desire to grow into such a role. Your ‘can-do’ attitude, ability to tackle and solve complex challenges, and talent for inspiring sales and channel teams are what will enable you to excel in this role. By building on established relationships with Distributors and VARs and hunting for new partner opportunities you’ll help lead our channel team to unified action, drive, and successful achievement of our ambitious goals. 

  • Hunt for New Partnerships: Embrace a hunter mentality to identify and secure new partnerships within the Distributor and VAR communities. Your proactive approach in expanding Nitro's market reach is vital. 
  • Enable and Grow Existing Partners: Focus on the continuous development of our partner network, leveraging your strong relationship-building skills to enhance partner success and drive sales growth. 
  • Strategic Leadership: Develop and implement growth-driving strategies, ensuring alignment with Nitro’s vision. You'll serve as the primary point of contact for NAMER sales and operational leadership, advocating for the channel team and facilitating strategic decisions. 
  • Problem-Solving and Innovation: Address unique market challenges and identify opportunities with creative solutions. Your role involves help steering Nitro’s strategic direction in the NAMER market and being an escalation point for resolving complex issues for the team. 
  • Training and Enablement: Demonstrate a passion for training by empowering both the sales team and partners with the necessary tools, resources, and knowledge to succeed. Your ability to effectively communicate and educate is key. 
  • Travel: Be prepared to travel extensively to nurture relationships, support channel team, and personally ensure the success of our partnerships. 

What we're looking for:

  • A dynamic individual with 10+ years of channel sales and strategy experience, ideally in technology or SaaS, who shows a proven track record of developing and nurturing profitable, long-term partnerships and consistently exceeding targets. 
  • Someone with a strategic mindset, excellent problem-solving skills, and the capacity for high-level collaboration and influence. 
  • A professional who is not only adept at identifying and pursuing new business opportunities but also passionate about enabling and expanding partner capabilities. 
  • A candidate with positive energy and the ability to lead through influence, aspiring to or having experience in team leadership roles. 
  • An enthusiast for training and development, ready to share knowledge and drive partner success. 

Ideal Candidate Profile: 

  • Proven Channel Sales Expertise: You bring 10+ years of demonstrated experience in channel sales and strategic planning, specifically within the technology or SaaS industries. Your track record in partnership development and strategic sales planning speaks to your capability to drive significant results. 
  • Exceptional Emotional Intelligence (EQ): Your outstanding EQ and communication skills enable you to lead through influence. You're adept at inspiring collaboration and securing commitment from both teams and partners, even without direct managerial authority. 
  • Hunter Mentality with a Can-Do Spirit: You possess a relentless drive to pursue new opportunities and challenges with a positive, can-do attitude. Your hunter mentality ensures you're always on the lookout for the next big win, never settling for the status quo. 
  • Aspirations to Lead: While you may not currently hold a managerial title, you have the aspiration and potential to lead a team in the future. Your current role as a catalyst for change and growth within the channel ecosystem demonstrates your readiness to take on leadership responsibilities. 
  • Established Channel Ecosystem Network: Your established network within the channel ecosystem showcases a proven track record of building and nurturing productive, long-term partnerships. This network is a testament to your ability to connect, engage, and drive mutual success. 
  • Strategic Thinker: Your ability to identify opportunities, craft strategies, and execute plans is unparalleled. You're a strategic thinker, adept at enhancing market presence and driving sales growth, with a knack for adapting to changing market dynamics and seizing opportunities. 
  • This profile seeks a dynamic individual who embodies a blend of strategic foresight, operational excellence, and the interpersonal skills necessary to galvanize teams and partners towards achieving common goals. If you're ready to leverage your experience, insights, and relentless drive for success in a role that promises growth, challenge, and the opportunity to shape the future of channel sales within the NAMER region, we invite you to join us at Nitro.
