Partner Marketing Data and Operations Manager

Parallels has an immediate vacancy for this role.

This role sits in our Partner Marketing team and owns the operational side of the partner programme from start to finish: Salesforce reporting, campaign data, MDF, the partner portal, and the training and enablement content our partners rely on. You’ll be the person who keeps all of it running, knows where every number comes from, and turns partner data into insight the team can actually act on. It’s a hands-on role with real ownership, so you’ll need to be highly organised and comfortable running several projects at once.

The top creative and technical minds could work anywhere. So why are so many of them choosing Parallels? Here are three reasons:

• This is the moment. It’s an exciting time at Parallels, with strong leadership, a refreshed brand, and a whole new approach to changing the way the world works. We’re at the forefront of a movement, and we want you to ride this wave with us.
• We want you to be you. Too often, companies tell you about their culture and then expect you to fit it. Our culture is built from the people who work here. We want you to feel safe to be who you are, take risks, and show us what you’ve got.
• It’s your world. We know you have a life. We want to be part of it, but not all of it. At Parallels, we’re serious about empowering people to work when, how, and where they want. Couch? Sweatpants? Cool with us. We believe that happy employees mean happy customers. That’s why we hire amazing people and get out of their way.
