Partner Development Manager – AWS 

It's fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what they're doing!

Job Description:

As Partner Development Manager (PDM) for AWS at Ingram Micro, your primary focus will be to   identify , recruit, and activate new AWS resellers   across the Nordic region. You will drive the expansion of our partner ecosystem by targeting high-potential cloud players and onboarding them into Ingram Micro’s AWS framework. Beyond acquisition, you will work with selected partners to build strategic growth plans, support go-to-market   alignment, and   accelerate AWS adoption.

This is not a “business as usual” role. You will be part of building something new — shaping how we grow   AWS   in your local market, together with a Nordic setup behind you.

Key Responsibilities

- Identify , recruit, and onboard new AWS-focused resellers aligned with Ingram Micro’s strategic growth goals.

- Build tailored development plans for each partner — aligned to AWS growth frameworks, co-sell readiness, and specialization opportunities.

- Lead quarterly business reviews (QBRs) to track partner progress against KPIs (revenue, certifications, GTM activations).

- Guide   partners through AWS programs   — ensuring full leverage of available benefits.

- Act as the strategic liaison between AWS, Ingram Micro, and the partner — ensuring alignment and visibility across all motions.

- Collaborate with technical teams to support partner enablement, customer   engagements , and solution-led sales.

- Support marketing activations and co-funded campaigns to build partner   brand   and generate AWS   pipeline .

- Track partner activity in CRM and internal dashboards, ensuring clean visibility into   pipeline , programs, and progression.

- Serve as the voice of the partner internally, influencing go-to-market, program design, and execution.

What   we are looking for  
You are a seasoned professional who thrives as an individual contributor, comfortable working independently while exercising sound judgment with limited supervision. In this role, you take ownership of key projects, programs, and business initiatives, applying creativity and ingenuity to drive them forward. You may also lead and coordinate projects or processes, ensuring progress and alignment along the way.

You enjoy sharing your   expertise   by coaching and supporting more junior colleagues, helping to review and elevate their work. The challenges you take on are often complex and require both analytical thinking and a solution-oriented mindset. Through your experience, you   are able to   influence others and contribute to shaping policies, practices, and procedures in a constructive and collaborative way.

Skills & Requirements

- 3–5 years in partner development, channel sales, or cloud ecosystem roles — ideally with AWS exposure.

- Strong understanding of cloud business models, AWS partner frameworks, and the Nordic reseller landscape.

- Proven ability to manage partner relationships, build strategic plans, and drive execution across teams.

- Excellent communication and collaboration skills; fluent in English   and   Norwegian   ( other   Nordic languages are a plus).
