The Alliances team is one of the fastest growing sales groups at Sovos. In just two and a half years, the team has grown from accounting for just under 5% of our sales bookings to almost 25% — and that number is only going up! Comprised of creative minds and goal-oriented hunters, our Alliances team is all about appreciating the big picture and making the strategic moves to get there. We are trailblazers and critical difference makers in an already fast-growing and dynamic global sales organisation.

This highly visible role will drive execution around account strategy, go-to-market plans, and integrations with SAP and other technology solutions delivered through Big 4 partners.
You will help establish and track success against the right metrics and KPIs, while working with the broader Alliances team to set the right growth and investment strategies. Success will come from deep engagement with Big 4 partners, managing large-scale SAP deals, and driving referral-based revenue growth.

More specifically, you will:

• Build and manage strategic relationships with Big 4 consulting firms (EY, PwC, Deloitte, KPMG, Accenture), with a focus on SAP-related initiatives.
• Lead business development programmes with Big 4 partners to secure large-scale SAP deals and maximize Sovos revenue through these partnerships.
• Develop and execute go-to-market (GTM) strategies specifically with Big 4 firms for SAP deals, including co-sell engagement plans and joint solution delivery strategies.
• Create business plans with key stakeholders at Big 4 firms, ensuring goals are defined and met across KPIs. Maintain a strong business cadence, including Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) and executive alignment.
• Identify partner stakeholders within Big 4, win mindshare of partner teams, and drive all aspects of partner engagement. Build deep, trusted relationships with Big 4 and Sovos sales teams to align on SAP deal strategy.
• Enable Sovos sellers on Big 4 SAP value propositions and enable partner teams on Sovos solutions through targeted enablement content.
• Collaborate with Product, Engineering, Operations, Sales, and Marketing to deliver joint solutions and leverage integrations for GTM programs that drive new referral sales opportunities.
