Manager of Strategic Partnerships

We are looking for a solution-oriented sales professional who will be tasked with generating leads and attaining a quarterly quota against a new book of business. This role will work with both startup and enterprise clients to align STRV’s services with client objectives, and you’ll join a team of knowledgeable and passionate individuals on our Design, Engineering, Product, and Marketing teams.

We’ve got a team of which we’re endlessly proud, and we need someone who’ll be just as all-in as we are when representing STRV in front of our clients and prospects.

You’ll be joining our sales team of 5 team members, most of whom are located in the US. Your main responsibility will be managing our business outside of the US & Canada, something that is a fairly new and fast-growing segment for us. You’ll have full autonomy in how you generate new business. You are in control of your own schedule. You leverage and expand your own network while taking on inbound leads coming from our marketing team, as well as referrals from within our network. In short: We are looking for someone we can trust to help STRV grow, and that’s where you come in.

STRV delivers top-tier design and engineering services provided by our expert teams, who sit in our headquarters in Prague and in our second Czech office in Brno. Alongside our Product Managers, you’ll be crafting engagement strategies and approaches, estimating timelines and budgets, assembling client proposals and, ultimately, giving our team a chance to deliver great results for our clients—which is the core of what STRV does, and it all starts with you.

Once a deal is closed, you will transition the client to the Product Manager or dedicated Account Manager. From there on, that person becomes the main point of contact, and you’re on to the next one.
