Senior Channel Partner Manager, Strategic Advisory

About the Role

Ramp is building institutional partnerships with top global strategy consulting firms that shape finance transformation and technology decisions for the CFOs and CEOs we serve. These firms influence clients before a buying process begins, advise on the operating and technology decisions that define transformation programs, and can help clients move from strategy to live operational capability.

Ramp has an opportunity to build relationships that create value for the firm, its clients, and Ramp, across executive engagement, thought leadership, co-sell, and shared client work. This role will own those relationships and turn them into an institutional go-to-market motion: building credibility with firm leadership, identifying the right client and practice wedges, developing firm-specific plans, leveraging Ramp’s data to amplify firms’ thought leadership, and creating repeatable paths to joint client outcomes.

This is a build from the ground up. Ramp's relationships across this ecosystem are early and largely informal today, and this person will be responsible for the relationship, the partnership thesis, and the operating motion that makes a firm a meaningful Ramp partner over time. It is a broader remit than a typical partnerships role.

What You'll Do

- Own Ramp's relationships with a portfolio of top-tier strategy and advisory firms (e.g., McKinsey, Bain, BCG), serving as the primary relationship owner and building credibility with senior firm leadership

- Turn executive introductions into structured partnerships, developing the partnership thesis, relationship map, executive sponsor plan, target practices and client wedge for each firm

- Negotiate and close the first formal agreements between Ramp and these firms

- Build market-facing proof points with Ramp's leadership, marketing and product teams, including executive events, thought leadership and shared client stories

- Coordinate execution across Ramp, bringing the right Account Executives, Customer Success Managers, Product, AI Solutions and executive sponsors into each firm relationship

- Establish and maintain the operating cadence: relationship maps, firm plans, account maps and next steps

What You Need

- 4+ years of experience at a leading strategy consulting firm (e.g., McKinsey, Bain, BCG)

- Exceptional executive presence. You can hold a room with senior leaders, earn trust quickly, and be trusted to represent Ramp in meetings without support

- Proven ability to run many work streams and complicated stakeholder management

- A builder's instinct. You are energized by an empty page, comfortable without a playbook, and bring structure to ambiguity

- Excellent written and verbal communication, and the judgment to calibrate between an executive conversation and a working session

- Willingness to travel approximately 25% and to be based in a major metro. New York preferred
