The AWS Cloud Sales Center is one of the largest and fastest-growing sales organizations. We generate over $11B in annual pipeline, serve 75,000 customers, and convert partner engagement into measurable revenue every quarter. Partners are our force multiplier: they extend our reach into thousands of accounts, bring specialized expertise to customers who need it, and help us drive cloud transformation at a pace and scale no single sales team could achieve on its own.

We are looking for a builder, a people leader, and someone who is relentless about results. In this role, you will own the Partner Territory Management function across NAMER: the team of leaders and sellers who make partner-driven growth real for our customers every day. You will sit on the CSC NAMER leadership team, where your perspective will directly shape strategy, investment decisions, and how we think about the future of partner-led growth. You will also own the number. Partner-sourced pipeline and revenue targets live with you, and you will be measured on whether your teams deliver.

If you want a seat at the table in a scale organization that is redefining how cloud sales works through partners, you believe your highest-leverage activity is making the people around you better, and you are energized by owning outcomes, we want to talk to you.

Key job responsibilities

Lead at the Table

  • Sit on the CSC NAMER leadership team; shape strategy, influence investment, and advocate for partner-led growth as a first-class revenue lever
  • Bring the voice of the field to strategic decisions: where to deploy coverage, where to double down, and where to pivot

Drive Revenue Through Partners

  • Own partner-sourced pipeline, opportunity registration, and revenue attainment across NAMER PTM territories
  • Design territory coverage that aligns partner capacity to where the growth opportunity is greatest
  • Inspect performance weekly and make real-time decisions on coverage, partner engagement, and resource allocation

Own the Partner Relationship

  • Be the senior point of accountability for partner performance; lead QBRs, resolve escalations, and hold partners to a standard
  • Collaborate across campaign, enablement, and analytics teams to ensure partners and reps have what they need to win

Build and Develop Leaders

  • Coach, develop, and inspire a team of PTM leaders and their reps across multiple territories
  • Set a high bar for talent; own hiring, development, and succession planning for the PTM function
  • Create a culture where accountability and recognition coexist, where people want to do their best work

A day in the life

You start the morning in a pipeline review with one of your leaders. Two partners in the Southeast are accelerating, so you brainstorm how to replicate that play in territories with thinner coverage. Mid-morning, you join the leadership team meeting where you make the case for additional partner investment in a high-growth segment, backed by the data your team is producing. After lunch, you lead a QBR with a key partner: celebrating a co-sell win, pressure-testing their plan for next quarter, and setting clear expectations on pipeline contribution. Late afternoon, you spend time coaching a newer leader on how to have a direct conversation with a rep who has strong relationships but needs help converting activity into revenue.

About the Company

Amazon.com Inc

At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

It’s Always Day 1
At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
