  • Help find, recruit, and onboard new implementation partners in France to grow and expand a local partner network

  • Own the day-to-day relationship with existing partners and make sure they hit Lightspeed’s quality, certification, and performance standards

  • 2+ years in partner management, channel management, or a similar role in SaaS, POS, or hospitality tech

  • Fluent in both, French and English; additional European languages are a plus

  • Comfortable working with ticketing systems and operational tools (e.g., Jira, Salesforce, or similar)

Big plus:

  • You've recruited, enabled, and grown third-party partners or reseller networks before
