About the team

Alloy's Mid-Market Banking & Credit Union segment addresses the high demands of fraud prevention, identity risk, and customer expectations, which are core to modern banking experiences. We sell directly and through channel partners (account opening, loan origination, and digital banking platforms), and we're expanding our ecosystem to reach more banks and credit unions through trusted referral relationships.

The Partner Development Manager reports to the Director of Channel Partnerships and owns the early partner lifecycle: sourcing and signing new referral and reseller partners, building joint business plans, coordinating technical integrations and documentation, and generating pipeline from new and select existing partners.

Work with Product, Technical Solutions, and partner technical teams to scope and document integration specs.

Define GTM processes with each partner, including referral flow, lead routing, handoff to Sales, and attribution.

Create early enablement materials, such as positioning, referral guides, and talk tracks.

Generate referral pipeline with new and select existing partners through joint outreach, campaigns, and introductions to target financial institutions.

Hand qualified referrals to Account Executives with clear context, and track them through close.

Maintain Salesforce hygiene for partner records, referral tracking, and attribution, and report on sourced partners, signed partners, and referral pipeline.

Collaborate with Marketing, RevOps, and Partner Ops on co-marketing, enablement, and reporting.
