Role
Who you are
- The ideal candidate has strong, existing relationships with strategic VARs in the East, a deep understanding of partner sales motions, and a proven ability to exceed KPIs and revenue targets
- While not a technical role, familiarity with identity and access management (IAM) solutions and established connections with identity-focused partner contacts are essential
- 3+ years of experience in channel account management or partner sales within cybersecurity, SaaS, or identity-related industries
- Strong relationships with top-tier VARs in the West U.S
- Familiarity with partner ecosystems and co-selling models
- Proven track record of achieving and exceeding sales targets and KPIs
- Working knowledge of identity and access management (IAM) solutions preferred
- Excellent communication, interpersonal, and organizational skills
- Self-starter with the ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment
What the job involves
- C1 is expanding our channel team and seeking an experienced Channel Account Manager to drive strategic partner relationships and onboard key Value-Added Resellers (VARs) within the West region
- This role will play a pivotal part in accelerating pipeline growth through partner-led activities and expanding our presence across the identity ecosystem
- Own and manage relationships with key VAR partners in the West region to drive mutual success and revenue growth
- Enable and support partners in effectively positioning and selling C1’s solutions
- Drive partner-led demand generation initiatives and pipeline acceleration programs
- Evangelize C1 across partner sales, technical, and identity teams to expand mindshare and influence
- Work closely with internal teams (Sales, Marketing, Product) to align partner strategy with company goals
- Collaborate with the Field and Partner Marketing function to execute co-branded marketing initiatives that generate leads and upsell opportunities
- Track, measure, and report on partner performance, pipeline contribution, and ROI
Our take
C1 is an identity security company that helps IT and security teams by automating privileges and compliance. It automates identity security, thus enabling companies to understand what is happening across their operations and what actions could impact someone’s program access permissions.
Originally know as ConductorOne, the company rebranded in 2026. This change accompanied the broadening of its platform to address identity governance for AI tools and agents. Regarding the past success of its Access Request product - which saved IT teams the time they would spend provisioning - we expect this extension to bring similar value to C1's clients.
C1 is well-funded, having raised substantial investment from the likes of GreyCroft and CrowdStrike. This has supported the company in accelerating growth and scaling operations, and gave it a solid foundation from which to address what identity looks like in the post-AI for business era.
