Public Sector Partner Manager

Role Overview

• Build the Ecosystem: Identify, recruit, and onboard high-value Public Sector resellers, distributors (e.g., Carahsoft, immixGroup), and small business partners (SDVOSB, WOSB) to broaden our reach.
• Drive Revenue: Actively manage partner relationships to drive pipeline generation. You won't just sign partners; you will ensure they are trained, motivated, and selling.
• Market Mapping: Analyze the government landscape to identify which agencies and departments have the highest need for our Fleet Safety solutions.
• Own the Vehicles: Lead the strategy and execution for acquiring and maintaining critical contract vehicles, including GSA Schedules, NASPO ValuePoint, Sourcewell, OMNIA Partners, and TIPS.
• RFP Leadership: Coordinate the partner-facing response to government RFPs and RFIs. You will partner with internal teams on how to position our products within the rigid requirements of public sector bids.
• Compliance & Operations: Maintain strict compliance with all government contracting regulations (FAR/DFAR) and ensure our price lists and product catalogs are up-to-date across all vehicles.
• Bridge the Gap: Serve as the internal subject matter expert (SME) for the Direct Sales team. Teach them how to use our partners and contract vehicles to close deals faster and without friction.
• Cross-Functional Alignment: Work closely with Legal, Marketing, Product, and Finance to ensure our government offerings are scalable and compliant.
• Performance Tracking: Monitor partner performance and contract utilization, reporting KPIs and ROI back to the Director of GTM Partnerships.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in Business Development, Partnerships, or Channel Sales, with a specific focus on the Public Sector (SLED and Fed)

• Contract Fluency: Deep understanding of government procurement cycles, contract vehicles (GSA, NASPO, Sourcewell, cooperative purchasing), and the role of distributors/resellers in B2G sales
• Industry Background: Experience in SaaS, IoT, Hardware, or the Mobility/Transportation industry is highly preferred. Understanding how to sell physical + digital solutions to government fleets is a major differentiator.
