Channel Account Manager - Dublin
Critical CloudBuild partnerships. Create opportunities. Help shape our growth in Ireland.
Critical Cloud is growing, and we're looking for a Partner Account Manager to help us develop existing strategic technology partnerships, create new commercial opportunities and grow existing customer relationships.
You'll be our first full-time commercial hire in Ireland. That means plenty of ownership, direct access to the leadership team and the chance to help shape how we build our partner-led business across the region.
What you'll do
- Develop strong, trusted relationships across our existing strategic technology partnerships.
- Create new opportunities through partner referrals, joint activity and account collaboration.
- Develop existing customer relationships and identify where Critical Cloud can add more value.
- Lead early-stage discovery and qualification, bringing in technical specialists when needed.
- Represent Critical Cloud at partner and customer events.
- Own your pipeline and maintain a clear, reliable view of opportunities and forecasts.
- Work closely with our leadership and delivery teams to turn opportunities into successful customer outcomes.
What we're looking for
- A minimum of 3 years of B2B technology sales experience.
- Experience generating revenue through partners, channels or alliances as well as direct customer relationships.
- A track record of building productive commercial relationships and turning them into qualified opportunities.
- Confidence speaking with senior technology and business stakeholders.
- A consultative approach: you listen first, understand the problem and sell the right outcome.
- Comfort working independently and taking ownership of a developing market.
- Based in Dublin, with the right to work in Ireland without sponsorship.
Useful, but not essential
- Experience in cloud, observability, managed services or technology consulting.
- Experience working with vendor or ecosystem partner programmes.
- Experience selling technical services rather than software licences alone.

- We expect you to spend at least one day each week on-site with partners and customers in Dublin.
- Some travel to the UK will be required to spend time with the wider Critical Cloud team.
