    This is a high-impact opportunity to expand Experian's channel partnership's function. You will focus on the recruitment and activation of strategic partners - transforming Experian's route-to-market through embedded integrations, co-sell motions, and new distribution channels.

    You'll build something in its early stages with a genuine mandate and executive sponsorship. You will work with world-class data assets and capabilities that partners seek to integrate.

    • Expand the channel operating model end-to-end: engagement models (referral, reseller, embedded/OEM, co-sell, marketplace), onboarding playbooks, and success metrics
    • Define and prioritize high-impact partner types — including SaaS platforms, Core AI providers and their emerging marketplaces, fintechs, system integrators, and data/technology ecosystem players
    • Develop a clear channel value proposition that positions Experian as the preferred partner for organizations aiming to embed the best data and decisioning capabilities

    • Develop joint business plans with each strategic partner, including clear pipeline targets, co-sell commitments, growth milestones, and mutual accountability frameworks

    Go-to-Market Execution & Revenue Growth

    • Guide partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline through structured co-sell motions, embedded distribution, and marketplace integrations
    • Support joint account mapping, opportunity co-creation, and coordinated customer engagement strategies with partner sales teams
    • Collaborate with Experian's Regional sales leadership and team to ensure seamless handoffs, co-sell rules of engagement, and revenue attribution processes

    • 10+ years of experience in channel partnerships, business development, or GTM roles within B2B SaaS, data, or technology organizations
    • Experience personally recruiting, structuring, and activating net-new channel or technology partnerships — not just managing inherited relationships
    • Experience with channel models including reseller, referral, OEM/embedded, co-sell, and marketplace distribution
    • Experience developing joint go-to-market plans with measurable pipeline and revenue outcomes
    • Commercially astute: able to structure complex partnership agreements, negotiate commercially, and model revenue and margin impact
    • Experience operating in complex, matrixed enterprise organizations
