About HeyGen

At HeyGen, our mission is to make visual storytelling accessible to all. Over the last decade, visual content has become the preferred method of information creation, consumption, and retention. But the ability to create such content, in particular videos, continues to be costly and challenging to scale.

Role Overview

HeyGen is looking for a Strategic Revenue Partnerships Manager to build and scale our revenue partnership motion.This is a quota-carrying, deal-closing role. It is not a traditional alliances role focused only on partner relationships, logos, or co-marketing activity.

You will be responsible for sourcing, structuring, negotiating, and closing revenue-generating partnerships with technology platforms, agencies, system integrators, and enterprise ecosystem partners. The goal is to create partnerships that directly produce pipeline, revenue, distribution, and enterprise adoption for HeyGen.

You will operate like a strategic AE with a partnership lens: identifying high-value opportunities, building the business case, aligning internal teams, negotiating commercial terms, and getting deals signed.

What You’ll Do
  • Source and close strategic partnership deals
    Identify, qualify, negotiate, and close high-impact partnerships that create measurable revenue for HeyGen.
  • Own partner revenue targets
    Carry a partner-sourced and partner-influenced revenue number. Build and manage a clear pipeline, forecast accurately, and deliver against quarterly targets.
  • Structure commercial agreements
    Lead commercial discussions, define partnership models, negotiate terms, and work with Legal, Finance, Product, and Sales to get deals across the finish line.
  • Build repeatable GTM motions
    Work with Sales and Marketing to create co-sell plays, referral motions, joint campaigns, webinars, and account-mapping programs that convert into qualified pipeline.
  • Drive product and integration opportunities
    Partner with Product and Engineering to identify high-value integrations using HeyGen’s API, workspace, and enterprise platform capabilities.
  • Manage executive-level partner relationships
    Act as the business owner for key partners, managing relationship strategy, contract execution, performance tracking, and executive alignment.
  • Build the function from zero to one
    Create the operating system for HeyGen’s revenue partnership motion, including partner qualification, deal structure, pipeline tracking, enablement, and success metrics.
What We’re Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience
    Experience in strategic partnerships, business development, channel sales, enterprise sales, or platform partnerships within SaaS, cloud, AI, or marketing technology.
  • Proven closing ability
    You have independently sourced, negotiated, and closed complex commercial deals. You are comfortable owning the full deal cycle from first conversation to signed agreement.
  • Revenue ownership mindset
    You are motivated by pipeline, bookings, and revenue impact. You do not measure success by meetings, partner announcements, or relationship activity alone.
  • Strong commercial judgment
    You know how to evaluate whether a partnership can become real revenue. You can separate nice-to-have ecosystem relationships from high-impact commercial opportunities.
  • Executive communication skills
    You can build trust with senior partner stakeholders, lead commercial conversations, and represent HeyGen clearly and credibly in strategic discussions.
  • Cross-functional leadership
    You can work effectively with Sales, Product, Engineering, Marketing, Legal, Finance, and executive teams to move complex deals forward.
  • Builder mentality
    You are autonomous, resourceful, and comfortable operating in ambiguity. You can build a new function from the ground up while still closing near-term revenue.
Why This Role Matters
  • Partnerships will be a key growth lever for HeyGen as we expand into enterprise customers, platform integrations, and partner-led distribution.
  • The right person will not just manage partnerships — they will close deals, create revenue, and define how HeyGen scales through the broader ecosystem.
  • Opportunity to win a category and build an ecosystem in the most dynamic part of the industry (AI video)
  • Opportunity to architect deals with most influential companies in software
