First it was the network, then the endpoint, then identity. Now it’s the AI and SaaS decisions employees make every day: the tools they adopt, the data they connect, and the agents they build. Nudge Security is the workforce security platform for AI, SaaS, and identity, built for this new perimeter.\nFind it. Govern it. Fix it. We discover every app, account, and AI agent, approved or not. We set guardrails for how they’re used. And where most tools stop at an alert, Nudge works directly with employees to fix the risk without slowing them down.\nMore than 250 organizations trust Nudge, and over 95% of them stay. Founded in 2021 by Russell Spitler and Jaime Blasco, we’re backed by Ballistic Ventures, Forgepoint Capital, Cerberus Ventures, and Squadra Ventures, and we closed a $22M Series A in November 2025.\nSummary\nAs a Channel Account Manager, you'll help scale Nudge Security's North American partner ecosystem and drive partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline and revenue. This individual contributor role combines strategic planning with hands-on execution across partner recruitment, joint business planning, enablement, and co-selling.\nYou'll own relationships across a defined territory or partner portfolio, working closely with Sales, Sales Engineering, Marketing, Product, and Customer Success.

Partner with Sales Engineering for deeper technical enablement and evaluations.\n\nCollaborate with Marketing on joint campaigns, events, workshops, and demand generation; manage market development funds where applicable and measure resulting pipeline and return on investment.\n\nMaintain accurate deal registration, forecasting, partner activity, and CRM records, with a consistent operating cadence and clear visibility into partner performance.\n\nBring partner feedback and market insights to Sales, Marketing, Product, Sales Engineering, and Customer Success to improve partner execution and the customer experience.\n\nRepresent Nudge Security at partner meetings, executive briefings, industry events, and security conferences.\n\nWhat You'll Bring\n7+ years of experience in channel sales, partner management, or alliances, including direct experience at a cybersecurity SaaS company.\n\nEstablished, active relationships with key cybersecurity partners such as GuidePoint Security, Optiv, World Wide Technology (WWT), AHEAD, and Trace3, with demonstrated success turning those relationships into pipeline and bookings.\n\nAbility to provide a professional reference from at least one key channel partner who can speak to your partnership, execution, and business results.\n\nA proven record of meeting or exceeding channel revenue targets and building repeatable partner-led pipeline within an assigned region or portfolio.\n\nStrong hands-on partner enablement skills, including the ability to independently deliver sales training and coach partner sellers on messaging, discovery, qualification, and objection handling.\n\nExperience recruiting and activating partners, developing joint business plans, leading QBRs, and executing co-selling and joint marketing initiatives.\n\nAbility to learn and clearly communicate Nudge Security's value across AI and SaaS security governance, Shadow AI, and workforce technology risk.\n\nStrong commercial judgment, executive presence, presentation skills, and relationships across partner leadership and field sales teams.\n\nA data-driven approach to forecasting, pipeline management, and partner performance, with experience using CRM and partner management tools.\n\nComfort building processes and taking ownership in a fast-paced startup environment.
