Full Job Description
We are hiring a Partner Development Director to build and scale a strategic partnerships function that positions Clozd as an embedded infrastructure layer across the go-to-market ecosystem.

This is not a traditional channel role. You won't just be managing referral agreements or running partner newsletters. You'll be sitting across from consultants, advisors, and operating partners - convincing them that Clozd belongs in every engagement they run.

You will be responsible for creating a partner-led growth engine where Clozd is:
  • Specified by advisors
  • Integrated into platforms
  • Embedded into transformation initiatives

Your mandate is to help Clozd become:

A standard part of how modern revenue organizations operate - and partners are how you get there. By embedding Clozd into the work of consultants, advisors, and technology platforms, you'll build a growth engine that scales beyond what a direct sales team alone can do.

What You'll Do:

Build the Partner Strategy
  • Define and prioritize key partner ecosystems:
    • GTM and RevOps consulting firms
    • Private equity and portfolio operations teams
    • Technology platforms (CRM, CI, CS, enablement)
    • Agencies and research organizations
  • Develop partner value propositions aligned to their business models
Develop and Activate Partnerships
  • Source, recruit, and onboard high-value partners
  • Build co-sell motions tied to business outcomes (win rate, retention, expansion)
  • Enable partners with:
    • Messaging and positioning
    • Certification and training
    • Joint go-to-market plans
Drive Pipeline and Revenue
  • Generate and close partner-sourced opportunities
  • Build joint account plans with strategic partners
  • Establish a repeatable motion that drives 20-30% of new pipeline
Embed Clozd as Infrastructure
    • Integrate Clozd into partner-led offerings and workflows
    • Position Clozd within:
      • GTM transformations
      • Board-level initiatives
      • Ongoing operating cadences (QBRs, planning cycles)
    • Shift Clozd from a point solution to a system-level investment


What We're Looking For:

Experience
  • 7-12+ years in:
    • Partnerships, strategic sales, or consulting
  • Proven track record of:
    • Building partner ecosystems from zero or early stage
    • Driving revenue through co-sell motions (not just referrals)
  • Experience working with:
    • Consulting firms, private equity, or GTM technology ecosystems
Capabilities
  • Executive presence with the ability to engage:
      • CROs, CMOs, Operating Partners, and founders
  • Strong systems thinker:
      • Understands how products become embedded into workflows
  • Builder mindset:
      • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and creating structure from scratch
  • Commercially driven:
      • Owns pipeline and revenue outcomes


Why Join Clozd:

  • Help define and lead a new category: Decision Intelligence
  • Build a net-new growth channel with executive visibility and impact
  • Work directly with senior leadership to shape company strategy
  • Join a high-performing, fast-growing team focused on meaningful business outcomes


Benefits:

  • This role can be based out of our Lehi, UT office or can be remote
  • Competitive compensation (i.e. salary, bonus, 401k, and equity)
  • Majority of medical, dental, disability, life, and other insurance paid
  • Unlimited PTO with a boss that encourages taking time off and using PTO to recharge
  • 10 paid holidays and company shutdown between Christmas and New Years
  • Quarterly company/department activities, parental leave, EAP program, etc.
