POSTED ON 1/2/2026

We are seeking a Channel Account Manager to own and expand Anecdotes’ strategic relationships with Guidepoint and additional alliance partners. This is a high-impact, strategic role reporting directly to the CEO, responsible for developing the partnership, driving pipeline and revenue through the channel, and ensuring close alignment between Anecdotes’ sales, marketing, and partner teams.

This is a U.S.-based, remote role with a strategic focus on key markets, including the San Francisco Bay Area, Chicago, and Texas. The Channel Manager will work closely with partners and internal teams across these regions to drive pipeline and revenue growth.

The ideal candidate is a relationship-driven professional with experience managing strategic partners, enabling joint go-to-market motions, and translating partner relationships into measurable business impact.

Our story:

We’re Anecdotes; a dynamic B-round startup founded in June 2020, who’s revolutionizing the Compliance Automation landscape for hyper-growth companies. At the heart of our mission is the belief that credible, visible, and actionable data should empower every GRC team's decision-making. Imagine a world where enterprises seamlessly collect and standardize data from hundreds of SaaS tools, cloud infrastructures, private networks, databases, and more. We bring that vision to life, providing continuous, real-time visibility into their Security Compliance posture.

What You'll Do:

  • Own the end-to-end relationships with strategic channel and alliance partners, including Guidepoint, Defy, and others
  • Build strong relationships with key partner stakeholders across sales, partnerships, and leadership
  • Serve as the primary point of contact between Anecdotes and strategic alliance partners
  • Develop and execute joint go-to-market strategies with alliance partners
  • Drive pipeline generation and revenue through partner-led and co-sell motions
  • Enable partner teams on Anecdotes’ value proposition, use cases, and differentiation
  • Support joint sales cycles, including deal strategy and closing
  • Create and maintain partner enablement materials and sales playbooks
  • Track partner pipeline, performance, and key success metrics
  • Collaborate closely with internal sales, marketing, and product teams on joint initiatives

Requirements:

  • 5 years of experience in channel management, partnerships, business development, or alliances
  • Experience working with consulting firms, advisory firms, or strategic B2B partners - Guidepoint is a must.
  • Strong understanding of B2B SaaS sales and partner-driven GTM motions
  • Proven experience working with customers or partners in at least one of the following U.S. markets: San Francisco Bay Area, Chicago, or Texas
  • Willingness and ability to travel within the United States as needed for in-person partner and customer engagement
  • Proven ability to build and manage senior stakeholder relationships
  • Strong communication, negotiation, and presentation skills
  • Highly organized, data-driven, and comfortable working cross-functionally

Nice to have:

  • Experience in GRC, security, compliance, or risk-related domains
  • Background in high-growth SaaS or startup environments
  • Experience working with enterprise customers
