Sales Manager

Partly's mission is to connect the world's parts and we're doing that by building the first global platform for replacement parts, starting with auto parts. Our big vision is to accelerate the world towards a sustainable future where waste is eliminated and all replacement parts are universally searchable, accessible and available to all.

Founded by ex-Rocket Lab engineers, we utilise cutting-edge technology to solve challenging but exciting problems that make a huge impact in a $1.9 trillion industry. We've more than tripled our team over the last 12 months and expect to double in size again over the coming 12 months. We're a global team spanning both Europe and Australasia.

We provide a scalable digital infrastructure solution to some of the world's largest businesses and the most exciting startups. Partly's solutions are integrated across hundreds of companies globally, providing the backbone for cataloguing and managing parts online.

Our investors in Blackbird Ventures (Canva, CultureAmp etc.), Square Peg, Octopus Ventures, Icehouse, Peter Beck (Rocket Lab), Akshay Kothari (Notion Co-Founder) and Dylan Field (Figma Co-Founder).

We're continuing to build a world-class team and ensuring Partly is a place where people can do the best work of their lives. We're proud of the culture we've built at Partly, and our values are lived throughout every experience.

This role is the growth engine of the UK. As Sales Manager, you will own the strategy, execution, and people behind acquiring, activating, and scaling repairers across the network — with a clear mandate to drive weekly active sites at pace. This is a leadership-first role, requiring someone who can build and run a high-velocity sales team, define repeatable processes, and create the conditions for consistent, scalable growth across independent and multi-site repairers.

You will be responsible for hitting aggressive team growth targets, improving conversion across the funnel from signed to live to active, and working cross-functionally with onboarding, supplier, and product teams to remove blockers to activation. You will build and lead a team of Account Executives, own the UK sales playbook, and ensure Partly becomes the default infrastructure layer for repairers across the market.

• Work with the supplier network to ensure strong parts coverage for repairers joining the platform

• Proven track record leading and developing B2B sales teams, ideally in a high-growth environment

• Strong commercial instincts with experience owning revenue targets at a team level

• Experience building or refining sales processes and playbooks from the ground up

• Ability to coach salespeople at different stages — from early-career AEs to experienced closers

• Comfortable operating in fast-moving environments where structure is still being built

• Strong relationship-building skills with customers, partners, and cross-functional stakeholders

• Hands-on experience with HubSpot CRM and outbound sales tools
