Distribution Partner Manager (Singapore)

Figma’s distribution partnerships team is focused on unlocking new sources of revenue and hyper-scaling growth through the power of strategic alliances. This includes accelerating go-to-market (GTM) efforts, serving the needs of our customers, and bringing Figma’s platform to new organizations around the world. We are looking to hire an experienced business development and partnerships professional to scale our efforts with agencies, systems integrators, consultancies, and commercial partners (resellers) across APAC. This includes driving revenue growth and supporting customers in India, SE Asia, South Korea, and ANZ. . 

This is an exciting opportunity to join an emerging team at Figma where you will play an active role in shaping our long-term partner strategy. You will build new partner programs from scratch and scale our existing motions to new customers and partners across APAC.
