Vice President, Partner Marketing

Icertis is the global leader in AI-powered contract intelligence, trusted by the world’s most iconic brands and disruptors to transform their commercial foundation. Our award-winning platform is used to manage over 15 million contracts in over 90 countries and 95 languages. Through strategic partnerships with companies such as SAP, Microsoft, Salesforce, Adobe, Accenture, Deloitte, and PwC, Icertis extends its reach and impact across the enterprise software landscape. Our recent deepened partnership with SAP — resulting in the launch of SAP Ariba Contract Intelligence by Icertis — exemplifies how we are embedding contract intelligence directly into the world’s most widely used enterprise applications to accelerate time-to-value and operational excellence.

As Vice President of Partner Marketing, you will lead the global partner marketing strategy and execution for Icertis, spanning our ecosystem of cloud platform partners, global systems integrators, and regional solution providers. You will develop integrated co-marketing programs, GTM strategies, and enablement initiatives that drive brand awareness, partner engagement, pipeline growth, and customer value. A critical aspect of this role is leading the partner marketing strategy for our deepening relationship with SAP — promoting our jointly-developed solution extension, scaling field activation, enabling our GSI partners, and amplifying customer success. This is a strategic and highly cross-functional leadership role reporting directly to the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), and it requires strong collaboration across marketing, product, alliances, and field sales. This position can work remotely within the US.  #LI-Remote #LI-RS1
