Job description

Job Description:

The Channel Sales Manager is responsible for driving revenue growth through AV/UC reseller and integrator partners within the mid-market segment. This role combines channel development, direct sales execution, and go-to-market validation, requiring a hands-on, results-driven approach.


You will be given verticals and an initial pipeline, but success depends on the ability to generate demand through partners, not just manage inbound opportunities. This is a builder + hunter role β€” responsible for developing partner channels while simultaneously closing deals.

  • Build, activate, and grow relationships across AV/IT channel partners (VARs, MSPs, integrators)
  • Generate pipeline through partner engagement and outbound efforts; identify and develop mid-market opportunities
  • Develop and refine value propositions while testing customer segments, partner types, and messaging to drive repeatable revenue
  • Maintain partner/customer relationships, track pipeline and forecasts, and use market insights to continuously improve sales strategy




Requirements

Job Requirements

  • Track record owning full sales cycle with personally attributable revenue results
  • Ability to operate in build-stage environments
  • Experience working with AV integrators, VARs, MSPs; existing partner relationships preferred
  • Strong understanding of channel economics, partner incentives, and reseller models
  • Experience selling into mid-market accounts with knowledge of IT buyers and procurement processes
  • Ability to translate products into multiple value propositions and validate messaging through live deals
