Senior Partner Enablement Manager

Every sales play, program change, funding update, and PRM release we build across MongoDB's partner ecosystem only creates value if the people who need to use it actually know how. We're looking for a Senior GTM Enablement Manager to drive this end to end. This is a dual mandate: enabling our external partners (SIs, ISVs, and cloud partners) to sell, deliver, and support MongoDB effectively, and enabling our own internal partner organization (Sales Plays & Offerings, Partner Programs, Cloud & Hyperscaler Programs, and everyone else in the ecosystem function) to stay current on products, programs, and the frequent changes that come out of a fast-moving partner strategy. You'll report to the Global Head of Partner Enablement and build the Japanese enablement function supporting the entire Japan partner organization. We are looking to speak to candidates who are based in Tokyo for our hybrid working model. What You'll Do Enable external partners • Develop and own the local Partner Enablement strategy in alignment with the Global Partner Enablement strategy across all key external partners (SIs, OEMs, Resellers, ISVs, cloud/hyperscaler partners) • Deliver end to end Partner Enablement for the Japanese Partner ecosystem - partner onboarding, certification pathways (including MongoDB's SI Associate and SI Architect tracks), and ongoing training content that keeps partners current on MongoDB products, sales plays, and programs • Design and run delivery mechanisms — workshops, on-demand training, partner summits, webinars — that fit how different partner types (SI, ISV, cloud) actually consume enablement • In partnership with L&D and Sales Plays & Offerings teams, ensure local training assets are suitable for local market priorities and enablement approaches • Identify key local metrics to support ecosystem growth, completing impact analyses with key stakeholders to ensure progress and ROI tracking Enable the internal partner organization • Develop and deliver a standing internal enablement cadence that keeps the Japan internal partner org — Sales Plays & Offerings, Partner Programs, Cloud & Hyperscaler Programs, Digital Process & AI Operations, and the PRM product team — current on product updates, program and funding changes, and platform releases • Treat every significant change coming out of Partner Programs (new tiers, incentives, funding models) or the PRM roadmap as an enablement event, not an email — make sure the internal team knows it's coming, what it means, and how to talk about it before partners ask • Leverage internal enablement formats (briefings, quick-reference guides, office hours) sized to a fast-moving team rather than a heavyweight training program that are localised for the Japan market Local Alignment • Voice of the Partner & Feedback Loops: Capture insights, localized needs, and enablement gaps directly from Japanese partners, channeling feedback back to global enablement and product teams to refine global offerings • Cross-Functional Regional Alignment: Partner closely with Japan sales leadership, APJ alliance directors, and local field marketing to align enablement initiatives with regional pipeline generation and co-selling motions What You'll Bring • 7+ years of experience in partner enablement, channel enablement, or sales enablement at a B2B SaaS or infrastructure/data company, including experience leading a team • Fluency in both Japanese and English (business level or above) • A track record of delivering enablement for external partners (certification, onboarding, content) across various mechanisms (virtual, in-person, on-demand) and demonstrated experience enabling internal revenue or partner functions • Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills; comfortable working with Sales
