Senior Partner Solutions Sales and Adoption Manager

The Role

The purpose of this role is to accelerate adoption and commercial value creation across Collinson’s partner-facing products, tools and services. Acting in a business development-style capacity within Partnerships, the role will identify, shape, sell and drive opportunities for partners to adopt digital products including (but not limited to) Lounge Management Solutions (LMS), Waitlist, Partner Portal, Data Services, Integrations and other partner-related capabilities that enhance operational efficiency, partner engagement, customer experience and portfolio performance.

The role will work closely with regional Partnership Managers, wider regional Partnerships teams, Product, Value Proposition, Commercial, Operations, Data, Technology, Marketing and other relevant functions to build a clear pipeline of opportunities, support partner conversations, develop compelling propositions and coordinate implementation plans that drive measurable adoption and usage across the global partner portfolio.

A key focus will be translating product and service capabilities into partner-relevant value propositions, ensuring that opportunities are prioritised based on commercial impact, partner need, operational readiness and strategic fit. The role will also help establish repeatable approaches, engagement materials and adoption frameworks that can be deployed consistently across regions, whether through a regional, centralised or global operating model, while feeding regional requirements, partner feedback, market insight and adoption barriers into Product and Value Proposition teams to help evolve Collinson’s digital product roadmap.
