Position Summary

Marketing at SPS Commerce is evolving — and this is your chance to be part of something big. As our business scales and our global reach expands, we’re building a marketing organization that does more than create awareness — we drive demand, deepen relationships, and deliver measurable impact across every stage of the customer journey.

We’ve reimagined how we work, combining functional expertise with deep customer insight. Our team is structured around key areas like Brand, Demand Generation, and Product Marketing, and we collaborate through cross-functional pods focused on distinct customer segments — from Retailers and Suppliers to Revenue Recovery & Analytics and Core.

We’re seeking a strategic and hands-on Partner Marketing Manager to execute and scale our partner marketing function at a pivotal moment of growth. In this role, you will have a hand in everything from creating joint value messaging and go-to-market assets, to driving demand and enablement programs across the entire spectrum – from strategic to scale partners.  You’ll get to flex your product marketing and programmatic marketing skills across all channels. And you’ll be a critical contributor to building the systems to scale our channel business impact.

What You’ll Do

• Own the foundational joint go-to-market assets for strategic partners from concept to completion, quarterbacking the process with input from channel sales, product, product marketing, and partners.
• Collaborate closely with SPS integrated marketing to design and execute co-branded campaigns, events, and webinars that increase lead volume and accelerate deal velocity.
• Design and implement repeatable joint marketing motions including coordinated campaigns, co-created content, digital activations, and integrated communications that scale efficiently across multiple partner relationships.
• Create content and campaign templates that enable partners to activate co-marketing independently while maintaining SPS brand standards and messaging consistency.
• Leverage digital channels, partner portals, and marketplace placements to maximize the visibility and reach of joint marketing programs.
• Track, report, and continuously optimize ecosystem marketing performance using data-driven insights, ensuring programs deliver strong ROI and clear attribution to pipeline.
• Help develop positioning compelling experiences for potential partners to understand why and how to join our ecosystem.

Where You’ll Work

This role is remote or hybrid, based on the candidate’s location. For hybrid office locations (Minneapolis, MN), we Succeed Together through in-person collaboration, balanced with remote work to provide flexibility. The role will require occasional travel for onboarding, training, team or company meetings, etc., - estimated around 5%.

What You'll Bring

• 2+ years of experience in product marketing, preferably in a B2B SaaS environment
• Proven track record of delivering successful messaging, campaigns, and business impact within technology ecosystems and marketplaces.
• Exposure to and appreciation for the complexity of driving partner marketing with multiple stakeholders across organizations.
• Exceptional written, verbal and visual communication skills, including the ability to distill complex partner value propositions into compelling narratives.
• AI aptitude with examples of how you’ve leveraged LLMs and agents to accelerate and optimize your work.
• Demonstrated cross-channel integrated marketing experience, activating campaigns across digital, content, events, etc.
• Data-driven mindset with experience setting partner marketing KPIs, building dashboards, and reporting on program ROI.
• Experience in supply chain, retail technology, or a related industry is helpful but not required
