About this role

Apollo.io is hiring for a Director, Data & Distribution Partnerships role. See the official posting for full details.

Requirements

  • 8+ years in business development, partnerships, or channel roles, with meaningful experience originating and closing complex, first-of-their-kind commercial agreements — not just running an existing partner program
  • Experience managing or coaching a quota-carrying team (AEs, BDRs, or partner managers) while personally closing the deals your team can't yet handle alone
  • Comfortable operating in both modes this role requires: high-volume, SKU-based commercial structures (published pricing, repeatable paper) and heavy, bespoke one-off negotiations with named counterparties
  • A track record of building something that didn't exist before — a new channel, commercial model, or category of partner — rather than optimizing an established motion
  • Experience with data licensing, API/data-reseller businesses, or platform marketplaces (Snowflake, Databricks, or similar data-cloud ecosystems)
  • Experience with point-of-formation or embedded distribution models (legal tech, business-formation platforms, fintech, or similar)
  • Background scaling a partner or channel P&L from early-stage
