Together they span some of the fastest-growing areas of cybersecurity and networking, and for each one you will be NEXTGEN's owner of the relationship: accountable for the forecast, the pipeline and the commercial result. The portfolio covers a broad range of cybersecurity and networking solutions, including microsegmentation and Zero Trust, endpoint protection and extended detection and response (XDR), operational technology (OT) and IoT security, email and data security, identity governance, application and API security, encryption, and cloud and data centre networking.

Work closely with cross-functional teams, including sales, technical, marketing and operations, both within NEXTGEN and at your assigned vendors. This includes the NEXTGEN Sales team, the Technical team and assigned Systems Engineers (SEs). This role has no direct reports, so you will lead through influence: setting direction, aligning priorities and driving shared outcomes. Own the planning, execution and delivery of the sales and technical plans for each assigned vendor, working cross-functionally with the NEXTGEN Sales team and technical SE team. QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE | About you The ideal Vendor Manager: 3–5 years in the IT channel across sales, vendor management or business unit management, for example as a vendor or business manager, channel or partner account manager, or in business development at a distributor, vendor or reseller. A proven track record of owning a forecast and pipeline, and hitting quota.

Experience with software licensing and subscription models, MDF and joint business planning. Confidence presenting to, and influencing, senior stakeholders. A tertiary qualification in Technology, Commerce, Business or a related field is desirable. Commercially minded and numbers driven, with a clear focus on revenue and margin. Proactive rather than reactive: you anticipate issues and come with solutions. A natural owner who drives accountability and collaboration across teams you don't manage directly. Highly organised, with a strong eye for detail and a sense of urgency. An excellent communicator and relationship builder, face-to-face and remotely.
