Job Description:

We are seeking an experienced, entrepreneurial, and results-driven Software Sales Partner Business Manager to drive Cloud as a Channel, a strategic route-to-market for HPE Networking.

This role sits at the intersection of software sales, channel, hyperscalers, and business development.

The successful candidate will lead the development and execution of HPE Networking's Cloud as a Channel motion, leveraging cloud marketplaces and hyperscaler ecosystems to create new routes to market, generate incremental software revenue, and make it easier for customers and partners to transact HPE Networking solutions.

The role will drive go-to-market execution across Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace, Microsoft Azure Marketplace, and Google Cloud Marketplace, while supporting strategic initiatives and collaborations with hyperscalers.

In addition, the position will support the expansion of HPE Networking Enterprise Agreements (EAs) through the channel, helping partners and sales teams position EAs as a strategic software purchasing and consumption model.

This is not a traditional partner-management role.

We are looking for a builder who can develop an emerging route to market, activate sellers and partners, create pipeline, engage on strategic opportunities, remove execution barriers, measure results, and turn successful approaches into scalable sales motions.

The ideal candidate combines strong commercial instincts with experience in channel sales, business development, enterprise software, cloud marketplaces, or hyperscaler ecosystems.

They are comfortable operating across complex organizations, influencing without direct authority, and translating strategy into measurable business outcomes.
