As GIA scales, partnerships with major HRIS and enterprise platforms (e.g., ADP, Workday, SAP) are a critical growth lever.

About The Position: 

We are hiring a Senior Director of Strategic Partnerships & Ecosystem Sales to build and scale GIA’s partner-led revenue motion.

This role owns:

  • Revenue generated via strategic platform partners
  • Joint GTM strategy
  • Technical partnership alignment
  • Commercial frameworks
  • Integration discipline

This is not a relationship manager role.
This is a commercial + technical + product governance leadership role.

What You Will Do: 

Partner Revenue Strategy: You are accountable for partner-influenced ARR, not activity.

  • Develop and execute partner-led revenue plans with major HRIS and enterprise platforms
  • Build joint GTM motions that generate real pipeline
  • Establish measurable revenue targets tied to each partner
  • Define co-selling and co-marketing models

Executive Relationship Management:

  • Build trusted executive relationships within partner organizations
  • Align on:
    • Strategic positioning
    • Joint value propositions
    • Ecosystem narrative
  • Navigate complex partner org structures
  • You must be credible with:
    • Product leaders
    • Platform architects
    • Alliance leaders
    • Enterprise sales executives

Technical Partnership Strategy: This role must balance: Revenue opportunity vs roadmap discipline.

  • Define scalable integration principles
  • Ensure integrations:
    • Strengthen GIA’s core value
    • Do not fragment the product
    • Avoid one-off custom builds
  • Work closely with Product and Engineering to:
    • Prioritize integrations aligned with long-term roadmap
    • Protect product integrity

Product Governance & Integration Discipline: You are a guardian of product coherence, not a feature broker.

  • Establish clear criteria for:
    • Integration acceptance
    • Partner feature requests
    • API exposure
  • Prevent roadmap distortion driven by single-partner demands
  • Create repeatable integration patterns instead of bespoke builds

 

Internal Alignment

  • Coordinate across:
    • Sales
    • Product
    • Engineering
    • Marketing
    • Customer Success
  • Ensure partners amplify — not confuse — our PLS motion
  • Develop enablement for both partner and internal teams

 

What Success Looks Like:

  • Clear partner revenue contribution to ARR
  • Joint GTM plans that actually produce pipeline
  • Scalable integrations aligned to roadmap
  • No one-off custom features compromising core architecture
  • Strong executive trust on both sides
  • Ecosystem position strengthening GIA’s credibility

 

What We Are Looking For:  

Minimum Requirements: 

  • 12+ years in:
    • Strategic partnerships
    • Ecosystem sales
    • Enterprise SaaS
  • Experience working with major enterprise platforms (HRIS, ERP, HCM)
  • Strong technical fluency:
    • APIs
    • Integrations
    • Cloud architecture
    • Data governance
  • Demonstrated ability to drive partner-influenced revenue

 

Preferred Qualifications:
