They grow through ecosystems: networks of partners who extend their reach, deepen customer relationships, and deliver outcomes no single company can achieve alone.</p> <p>Braze is building that ecosystem, and EMEA is one of the regions where that motion has to work across the widest range of market maturity in the business – from the UK and DACH to the Nordics, Southern Europe, and channel-led markets like Eastern Europe and South Africa. Partner-engaged opportunities at Braze close at a significant multiple of the rate and deal size of direct-only deals, and Channel partnerships extend Braze’s commercial reach into markets and segments our direct teams cannot cover alone.</p> <p>As AVP, Partner Sales EMEA, you own the full partner sales motion across EMEA – both direct and indirect. This is a true ownership role: you set the regional strategy for how Braze goes to market through partners, define how the function operates across a fragmented set of markets and languages, and are accountable for the commercial outcomes whether they flow through co-sell or an indirect ecosystem route to market. You report to the SVP, Partnerships and operate as a peer to the VP Sales for EMEA, embedding partner-led as a structural part of how that revenue team operates and succeeds.</p> <p><strong>What You’ll Own</strong></p> <p>A regional team spanning direct partner sales and indirect channel across EMEA:</p> <ul> <li>Par
