Build the partner ecosystem from scratch
Cloud optimisation / rate optimisation focus
Minimum 1 day per week in office
Local travel required

Why this role stands out

Build the partner channel, not inherit one
There is no established partner ecosystem in region, so this is a genuine opportunity to build the local partner motion from the ground up.

Step into a clear APAC growth pathway
This role has the potential to develop into a Head of Partnerships role for APAC as the region scales, with the opportunity to grow headcount over time.

Work in a high-growth cloud optimisation market
Partner with cloud-focused organisations to help customers reduce cloud spend through data, automation and intelligent rate optimisation.

About the business

Our client is a high-growth cloud technology business helping organisations reduce and optimise cloud costs across major cloud environments.

The platform focuses on improving the commercial efficiency of existing cloud usage. In simple terms, it helps customers pay less for the cloud services they already consume by using automation, data and intelligent optimisation.

Cloud usage changes constantly, and managing cloud commercial commitments manually can be complex, time-consuming and risky. This can lead to wasted spend, missed savings or limited flexibility. The platform helps customers improve savings outcomes, reduce manual effort and make more confident cloud cost decisions.

The business operates with the pace and autonomy of a scale-up, with the support and reach of a larger global technology environment.

The opportunity

This is a partner development role for someone who understands the cloud ecosystem and knows how to build commercial relationships with MSPs, resellers, cloud consultancies, systems integrators and advisory partners.

You’ll be joining at an early stage of the ANZ partner build-out. There are currently no established partners in region, so this is a pure-play build role where you’ll identify, engage and activate the right partner organisations from scratch.

The focus will be on developing partnerships that can create new customer opportunities across cloud optimisation and rate optimisation. You’ll work with partners who advise, manage or influence cloud spend for their customers, helping them understand how the platform can support cost reduction, savings improvement and stronger commercial outcomes.

This role will suit someone who has worked in or around cloud optimisation, FinOps, cloud infrastructure or cloud services, and who understands how smaller and mid-market cloud customers buy through partners.

What you’ll be doing

  • Building the ANZ partner ecosystem from the ground up
  • Identifying and engaging MSPs, resellers, cloud consultancies, systems integrators and advisory partners
  • Developing partner relationships that generate net new customer opportunities
  • Creating a repeatable partner motion for the region
  • Educating partners on the value of cloud cost optimisation and rate optimisation
  • Working with partners to identify customers with meaningful cloud spend and optimisation potential
  • Supporting partner-led sales opportunities alongside the direct sales team
  • Building joint account plans, referral motions and co-sell opportunities
  • Developing commercial relationships with cloud-focused partners across ANZ
  • Working closely with sales, sales engineering and regional leadership to convert partner-sourced opportunities
  • Helping define the partner playbook as the region grows
  • Tracking partner activity, pipeline contribution and commercial outcomes

What you’ll bring

  • Experience in partnerships, channel, alliances, partner sales or business development within cloud technology
  • Strong understanding of cloud optimisation, rate optimisation, FinOps, cloud infrastructure or cloud services
  • Experience working with MSPs, resellers, cloud consultancies, systems integrators or advisory partners
  • A track record of building partner relationships that generate commercial outcomes
  • Experience creating pipeline through partner-led or co-sell motions
  • Understanding of how smaller and mid-market cloud customers buy, evaluate and implement cloud solutions
  • Ability to identify partners with the right customer base, technical capability and commercial fit
  • Confidence engaging senior partner stakeholders across sales, cloud, infrastructure and consulting teams
  • Strong commercial acumen and the ability to turn partner relationships into revenue
  • Comfort working in a smaller, earlier-stage or developing regional environment
  • Strong communication, stakeholder management and relationship-building skills
  • Self-motivated, proactive and comfortable building structure where it does not yet exist

Vendor-side, MSP, reseller, cloud consulting or systems integration experience could all work well. What matters most is your ability to build a partner ecosystem from scratch and create momentum in a developing market.

Backgrounds that could work well

This role could suit someone from:

  • Cloud optimisation or FinOps technology vendors
  • Cloud infrastructure or cloud software vendors
  • Managed service providers
  • Cloud resellers or cloud consultancies
  • Systems integrators or advisory firms
  • Technology consulting businesses
  • Smaller, earlier-stage or high-growth cloud technology businesses

The hiring team is particularly interested in people who have worked close to cloud customers and understand partner-led routes to market. This is not a mature channel role – it is about building the ecosystem, creating the playbook and turning early partner relationships into real pipeline.

What you’ll need

  • Experience in partner development, channel sales, alliances, business development or cloud ecosystem roles
  • Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure, cloud optimisation or cloud cost management
  • Experience working with MSPs, resellers, consultancies or systems integrators
  • Ability to build partner relationships from scratch
  • Demonstrated ability to create pipeline and commercial outcomes through partners
  • Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
  • A hands-on, builder mindset
  • Ability to travel locally as required
  • Ability to attend the office at least once per week

Benefits

  • Work-from-home first environment with flexible working
  • Private medical insurance support, with a monthly employer contribution available
  • Income protection cover
  • Annual wellness allowance
  • Birthday leave
  • Charity and volunteering leave
  • Professional development support
  • Mentoring, employee resource groups and strong onboarding support
  • Office and remote employee connection events

Why apply?

This is a rare opportunity to build a partner function from the ground up in a fast-growing cloud optimisation business.

You’ll have the autonomy to shape the local partner strategy, develop the right ecosystem and create a scalable route to market across ANZ, with potential to grow into a broader APAC partnerships leadership role as the region expands.

For someone who understands cloud partners, enjoys building from scratch and wants more ownership than a mature channel role can offer, this is a role worth exploring.

Project Manager

  • Australia
  • Melbourne
  • Permanent
  • Negotiable

This is a high-impact coordination role at the centre of a landmark mobilisation program, responsible for bringing a brand-new greenfield site to operational readiness by 2027. Sitting across both the Customer and Operations directorates, you will own the consolidated program plan – integrating 13 project streams, mapping all cross-stream interdependencies, and maintaining the governance and reporting cadence that keeps delivery on track. You will not be responsible for delivering every stream yourself; rather, you are the connective tissue across the program – attending stream meetings, partnering with stream leads, providing timely reporting to leadership and governance forums, and ensuring nothing falls through the gaps as the program moves toward go-live.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and maintain the consolidated MS Project program plan across all 13 project streams – integrating plans from the Customer and Operations directorates, mapping dependencies, sequencing milestones, and maintaining a single source of truth for the mobilisation program.
  • Lead cross-stream governance – attend stream meetings across both directorates, facilitate working sessions and decision forums, track risks, issues, and decisions, and ensure interdependencies between streams are visible and actively managed.
  • Produce high-quality reporting for governance and leadership forums – translating complex, multi-stream delivery activity into clear, accurate, and timely program updates that support confident executive decision-making.
  • Partner with stream leads, the overarching Program Director, and senior stakeholders to maintain delivery momentum – escalating risks, resolving cross-stream conflicts, and providing practical, balanced advice on prioritisation and sequencing.
  • Coordinate mobilisation readiness activities across Customer and Operations – ensuring customer experience changes, operational processes, workforce readiness, and system requirements are aligned and sustainably implemented ahead of construction go-live.

Skills & Experience Required

  • 5+ years’ experience delivering large, complex programs end-to-end – with a demonstrated track record managing multi-stream or cross-functional programs in a coordination or overarching PM capacity.
  • Advanced MS Project proficiency – able to build, link, and maintain integrated program plans across multiple workstreams, including dependency mapping, milestone tracking, and consolidated reporting.
  • Proven mobilisation, construction go-live, or site activation experience – backgrounds in construction readiness, retail rollout, precinct activation, or facility mobilisation programs are highly regarded.
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and reporting skills – able to maintain productive relationships across stream leads, senior leaders, and delivery teams, and distil complex program status into clear, governance-ready reporting.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving capability – able to identify risks and interdependency conflicts early, support practical resolution, and keep a large, multi-directorate program on track under pressure.

What’s in it for You

  • Initial 12-month fixed-term contract
  • Fawkner location with hybrid working arrangements.
  • High-visibility coordination role at the centre of a landmark mobilisation program – a genuine opportunity to shape how a brand-new site comes to life.
  • Work for a purpose-driven organisation serving communities across metropolitan Melbourne, guided by strong values and a commitment to respectful, compassionate service.
  • Building & Construction project experience required

Join early in the ANZ growth journey
This is a high-growth cloud business operating with the pace and autonomy of a scale-up, while backed by a larger global technology group. The ANZ team is still early in its growth journey, so this role will suit someone who has worked in smaller, earlier-stage or developing regional environments where they have had to create pipeline, build momentum and win new customers.

  • Managing multi-stakeholder sales cycles across technical, commercial and executive buyers

  • Demonstrated experience building pipeline through outbound activity
  • Experience selling into commercial or enterprise accounts
  • Ability to engage senior technical decision makers
