The Role

Syndio’s partner ecosystem is a core growth driver, and the relationships we’ve built with strategic partners require dedicated marketing investment to realize their full potential. We’re hiring a Strategic Partner Marketing Manager to own the co-marketing function across our strategic partner portfolio.

This role sits within the product marketing function and operates cross-functionally across the broader marketing team. You’ll be the primary marketing liaison between Syndio and our partners, ensuring that our joint value story is clear, our messaging is consistent and accurate, and that co-branded programs are built to drive real pipeline.

This role operates in two modes: ongoing co-marketing management — marketplace upkeep, accuracy audits, asset refreshes — across the full partner portfolio, and periodic launch-style pushes (marketplace listings, seller enablement, launch events) for partnerships at that stage.

This is a builder role. You’ll extend existing partner programs and create new ones where nothing exists yet, working directly with senior stakeholders on both sides, and setting the standard for how Syndio approaches partner marketing at scale.

Our partner portfolio spans different categories of platforms — HR and workforce systems, communication and collaboration tools, and others — each with its own language, buyer, and marketplace dynamics. You’ll need to adapt the value story and asset approach to fit each one.

What You’ll Do

Serve as the primary marketing liaison to strategic partners

• Own the day-to-day marketing relationship with Syndio’s strategic partner portfolio
• Build trusted working relationships with counterpart marketing contacts at each partner organization
• Represent Syndio marketing in partner planning calls, quarterly business reviews, and co-marketing syncs
• Bring executive presence to senior-stakeholder settings — comfortable representing Syndio one-on-one with senior leaders at partner organizations, without needing Syndio leadership in the room
• Coordinate across multiple external stakeholders when programs involve more than one partner organization at once

Own partner program navigation

• Understand each partner’s program structure and stage — enrollment, certification/build status, GA — and calibrate marketing claims and asset readiness accordingly, so we never market a partnership ahead of where it actually stands
• For partnerships that follow a full launch motion (marketplace listing, seller enablement, launch event, periodic refresh), lead that process end to end as a bounded project

Build and maintain a shared source of truth

• Develop and manage a co-marketing hub that gives both Syndio and partner teams a single place for joint messaging, approved assets, and campaign materials
• Ensure messaging across all partner-facing materials accurately reflects Syndio’s product capabilities a…
