In the posting’s own words
You will be the single owner of each partner relationship on the Anthropic side. The partner's global alliance leadership will look to you for the joint plan, the commercial construct, and the escalation path. Their in-country practices will look to you, working with our country account teams, for how a deal gets registered, priced, transacted and supported. Our internal teams will look to you for what the partner is doing in the market, where partner sourced pipeline is building, and where direct and partner motions are colliding. Managing potental direct versus partner conflict at scale, across many regions and account teams at once, is a core part of the job.
