Job Description: Role Purpose This role owns the CSLV relationship with major Distributors and the wider partner community, ensuring Services is a core part of every Channel conversation. The position operates at the Distributor and partner-community level, with a focus on Channel strategy and whitespace development: translating the overall CSLV strategy into actionable Channel strategies.   The role acts as the voice of the Channel within CSLV, identifying systemic barriers to Services growth and partnering with the appropriate internal teams to drive improvements that enhance the partner experience.   Success in this role requires strong collaboration and sales skills, good knowledge of the Channel, an understanding of the role Services plays in the broader deal mix, and a strategic approach that extends beyond the current quarter.
