Description

About Thomas At Thomas, we imagine a world of limitless human potential — where people thrive through self-awareness and authentic connection. For over 40 years, we’ve been pioneers in talent assessment. But now, we’re transforming. We’re evolving from a trusted assessment provider into a disruptive AI-powered people science platform, uniting behavioural insight, data, and technology to revolutionise how people and teams work together. Our new platform, Thomas Connect, is redefining collaboration — helping organisations unlock intelligent team profiling, behaviour comparison, and personalised growth at scale. We’re shaping a new era of workplace intelligence. And now, we need a world-class channel sales leader to take it global. The Opportunity As our Channel Sales Director, you’ll architect and lead the next phase of Thomas’s international expansion through our distributor and partner ecosystem. You’ll take full ownership of the indirect global revenue stream, designing and executing a bold, scalable channel strategy that accelerates market penetration and sustainable growth across 40+ markets. This is more than a leadership role — it’s a chance to build and own a global channel engine that will define the future of how our technology reaches the world. What You’ll Do Build the blueprint: Design and execute a global channel sales strategy that drives recurring revenue growth and market share across international regions. Lead performance: Own P&L for the international indirect business, setting clear commercial metrics and delivering sustained, profitable growth. Expand the ecosystem: Identify, onboard, and enable high-performing distributors and strategic partners aligned with Thomas’s global goals. Collaborate for scale: Work with Product, Marketing, and Finance to drive innovation, pricing, and enablement programs that fuel partner success. Inspire excellence: Lead and develop a high-impact UK-based team, setting the tone for performance, accountability, and empowerment. About You You’re a strategic and commercially astute sales leader — someone who’s built and scaled international partner ecosystems in high-growth SaaS or B2B technology environments. You’re equally comfortable in the boardroom and on the ground — balancing data-driven precision with entrepreneurial drive. Proven success in scaling international channel or distributor networks. Deep understanding of SaaS commercial models, indirect go-to-market frameworks, and operational excellence. Confident leading through complexity — translating global strategy into measurable results across diverse markets. Natural leader who builds trust, clarity, and accountability in teams. Purpose-driven, curious, and energised by building something that genuinely changes how people work together. Why Thomas Shape global expansion: Lead the design and growth of our worldwide channel ecosystem. Real impact: Work directly with our CRO, VP of Alliances, and international leaders to influence global strategy. Ownership and autonomy: Freedom to build, experiment, and make decisions that drive real commercial outcomes. High-growth environment: Join a fast-evolving SaaS company redefining the people science category through AI. Flexible working: Balance performance and wellbeing, aligned to UK business hours.
