Lead negotiations, contract development, and governance processes for new and existing alliances.
Collaborate with Sales, Marketing, and Consulting teams to design and launch joint go-to-market initiatives with alliance partners.
Define value propositions, messaging, and enablement strategies to drive adoption and revenue growth through partnerships.
Monitor performance of alliance-driven offerings and optimize GTM plans based on market feedback and results.

A Note on Travel: For the past year+ we have delivered projects remotely with much success, though we do plan to travel again in the near future. Our approach is different in that we are purposeful in scheduling on-site visits with clients around their unique needs rather than the standard Monday-Thursday travel schedule that you'll find at other large firms. We expect travel to be roughly 20-25% (could be more or less) but we’ll continue to monitor this area and adapt as needed.
CrossVue is a contemporary consulting firm providing the blueprint for modernizing client operations and processes through Workday.
