About Working at envelio

Too easy is boring! Together, we are on a mission to drive forward the energy transition. We love what we do, and we are unafraid to dive in. We believe in taking ownership of our work and in continuously growing and evolving. In short: own it, love it, grow with it.

We are a humble team of coffee and maté lovers with over 20 nationalities. With our geek humor, our love for emojis and random facts is only natural. Over 200 envelians are already on board. Dive in and thrive!

Your Role

As International Strategic Partner Manager (all genders), you will help shape envelio’s international expansion by identifying where strategic partnerships can strengthen customer acquisition, implementation, delivery, and long-term customer success. As one of the first people dedicated to this area, you will turn the partner strategy into action: identifying, acquiring, and activating the right partners in selected international markets.

Your focus will be on creating the strategic, commercial, and operational foundations for partner-led growth: finding the right partners, defining how we work together, developing joint market opportunities, and establishing processes that can scale as the partner organization grows.

How You Make an Impact

  • You help translate envelio’s international expansion priorities into a focused partner strategy, identifying where partnerships can complement direct sales and other routes to market
  • You identify, assess, and acquire implementation and delivery partners with relevant market access, customer relationships, local expertise, or delivery capacity
  • You define clear mutual value propositions, responsibilities, commercial models, and activation plans for priority partnerships
  • You create joint go-to-market plans with partners and Sales, developing partner-sourced and partner-influenced opportunities where partners add clear value
  • You coordinate the path from initial partner qualification to active collaboration, aligning Sales, Customer Success, Product, and other internal stakeholders
  • You establish repeatable partner processes, playbooks, and performance reviews to evolve individual relationships into a scalable partner ecosystem
