アマゾンウェブサービスジャパン合同会社のSenior Strategic Partner Sales Manager in Japan, Partner Sales Japan, AWS Partner Field APJ求人

We are not just selling cloud — we are building the future of Japan's digital economy.
Our Partner Sales team sits at the intersection of AWS's world-class technology and Japan's most ambitious enterprises, orchestrating transformative outcomes through strategic partnerships.
We believe that when partners succeed, customers succeed, and when customers succeed, society thrives.
We are looking for someone who shares our aspiration: to elevate Japan's competitiveness through technology, to energize industries through innovation, and to enjoy the challenge of building something that has never existed before.
At AWS, we collaborate deeply with System Integrators, Distributors, Value Added Resellers, and other services providers to deliver end-to-end digital and business transformation value to our customers.
Our strategic partners have holistic businesses including IT and consulting services, software products, re-selling, and other related businesses with IT infrastructure requirements.
These partners typically have large customer bases, multi-year contracts, long-term relationships with our customers, and a mix of business units providing different value propositions.
As a Senior Strategic Partner Sales Manager, you will be a trusted advisor who shapes customers' long-term partner ecosystems — not simply attaching partners to existing deals, but engineering the conditions for both partners and customers to win together.
You will translate customer needs into partner-led opportunities, architect the right partner mix for the right outcomes, and drive co-sell motions early in the sales cycle to build momentum.
This role requires someone who can think big, operate with a high level of strategic ambition, and execute with discipline.
You will own the partner sales strategy for a defined territory of Japan's most important enterprise accounts, working backwards from customer business outcomes to determine how partners can accelerate value delivery.

A day in the life
Your morning starts with a pipeline review — spotting where a partner's expertise can accelerate a customer's transformation.
You then recommend the right partner mix in an account planning session, and pitch the Win Room to secure funding for a competitive displacement.
In the afternoon, you align with partners on strategic customer approaches and next steps.
You wrap up by using an Agent to auto-generate a sales report from meeting notes — quick review, done.
Every day moves fast. But one thing never changes: you create the momentum, shape the ecosystem, and drive relentlessly toward customer success.
