About Glean:

Glean is the Work AI platform that helps everyone work smarter with AI. What began as the industry’s most advanced enterprise search has evolved into a full-scale Work AI ecosystem, powering intelligent Search, an AI Assistant, and scalable AI agents on one secure, open platform. With over 100 enterprise SaaS connectors, flexible LLM choice, and robust APIs, Glean gives organizations the infrastructure to govern, scale, and customize AI across their entire business - without vendor lock-in or costly implementation cycles.

At its core, Glean is redefining how enterprises find, use, and act on knowledge. Its Enterprise Graph and Personal Knowledge Graph map the relationships between people, content, and activity, delivering deeply personalized, context-aware responses for every employee. This foundation powers Glean’s agentic capabilities - AI agents that automate real work across teams by accessing the industry’s broadest range of data: enterprise and world, structured and unstructured, historical and real-time. The result: measurable business impact through faster onboarding, hours of productivity gained each week, and smarter, safer decisions at every level.

Recognized by Fast Company as one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies (Top 10, 2025), by CNBC’s Disruptor 50, Bloomberg’s AI Startups to Watch (2026), Forbes AI 50, and Gartner’s Tech Innovators in Agentic AI, Glean continues to accelerate its global impact. With customers across 50+ industries and 1,000+ employees in more than 25 countries, we’re helping the world’s largest organizations make every employee AI-fluent, and turning the superintelligent enterprise from concept into reality.

If you’re excited to shape how the world works, you’ll help build systems used daily across Microsoft Teams, Zoom, ServiceNow, Zendesk, GitHub, and many more - deeply embedded where people get things done. You’ll ship agentic capabilities on an open, extensible stack, with the craft and care required for enterprise trust, as we bring Work AI to every employee, in every company.

About the Role:

Glean is seeking a dynamic and strategic partnerships leader to join our global partnerships team and help build a thriving partner ecosystem that delivers and scales a best-in-class customer experience with the world’s leading AI-powered work assistant. As a founding member of the EMEA GTM Partnerships team, you will play a pivotal role in driving our partnership priorities across the enterprise search and generative AI landscape by cultivating deep relationships with top Channel, Cloud, GSI, and ISV partners.

In this role, you will lead the strategic planning and execution of cross-functional initiatives to achieve both sales and partnership goals—working closely with EMEA VARs, Resellers, SI, GSIs, Consulting Firms, Cloud and ISV partners. You’ll collaborate with teams across Product, Engineering, and Go-To-Market to deliver impactful product, partnership, and marketing launches.

The ideal candidate has a strong sales/GTM background and a proven record scaling partnerships in high‑growth environments. They’ve led GTM partnerships end‑to‑end—top‑down strategy, sales campaigns, enablement, partner services, pipeline growth, partner‑attached closures, and GTM execution—across EMEA and all partner types.

You will:

  • Develop and manage our execution with EMEA GTM partners, including understanding their business goals, needs, and our joint value proposition. Drive top of funnel and demand gen activities with partners in conjunction with Glean’s marketing teams; build and manage a co-sell motion with partners in conjunction with Glean’s Account Executives; and deepen our partnerships by identifying new joint opportunities. 
  • Help us prioritize a set of Tier 1 partners across VAR, Cloud, GSI and ISV partners; all team members must be strong generalists at this time given our team’s and partner program’s maturity. 
  • Collaborate with partners to develop and execute joint go-to-market plans, including joint product development, co-sell campaigns, marketing activities, and customer engagements.
  • Work closely with sales, marketing, product, and engineering teams to align partner strategies with company objectives and execute seamlessly across all functions and operating styles.
  • Ensure that partner-driven projects are delivered successfully and that customers derive value from our solutions.
  • Track and report on key performance metrics, such as net new meetings, opportunities, partner revenue, and partner funnel, and make data-driven recommendations for improvements.
  • Stay current on market trends, competitor activities, and emerging technologies to identify new opportunities for partnerships and growth.
  • Work with our Partner Ops + Enablement team to ensure that our partners have the necessary training, resources, and support to effectively sell and implement our product.

About you:

  • 10+ years of industry experience within partnerships/alliances, primarily in a sales capacity
  • 5+ years of direct sales/channel sales experience within the data, cloud, or SaaS space
  • Ability to travel internationally up to 25% of the time
  • Bachelor’s degree, with MBA preferred.
  • A strategic and structured thinker who enjoys building new processes, relationships, and revenue streams, while setting and driving towards long-term goals
  • Resourceful and creative in order to effectively and efficiently build new processes and improve existing ones
  • Collaborative and eager to develop partner relationships and execute cross-functional teamwork in person or virtually
  • Thoughtful about strategy and metrics, paired with the ability to hustle and execute
  • Knowledgeable about the enterprise SaaS sales motion and how to make partners successful in replicating that when selling Glean
  • Able to design and present business plans, track and improve partner progress, and communicate effectively both internally and externally
  • Comfortable working with globally distributed teams

Location:

  • This role is remote
