CEG AMS Partner Portfolio Excellence Lead

CEG AMS Partner Portfolio Excellence Lead

Job Description

The Role

The CEG Americas (AMS) Partner Portfolio Excellence Lead owns the operational execution of the AMS partner portfolio and co-sell motion. The role aligns strategic partners to qualified account opportunities, converts AMS demand into actionable portfolio and capacity requirements, and helps ensure Partner commitments are deployed against the highest-value customer and business needs.

Working across AMS sales, account, services, delivery, operations, GPC, and partner teams, the Senior Manager maintains a clear view of pipeline, allocation, utilization, and portfolio health. The role removes execution blockers, leads partner business reviews, and connects in-market demand with global portfolio governance so that partner investments translate into measurable pipeline, customer outcomes, and return.

The role serves as the CEG geo interlock point for partner portfolio execution, connecting CEG demand, delivery fit, and partner capacity with GPC’s partner enablement and ecosystem readiness work while maintaining clear ownership boundaries between CEG delivery excellence and GPC partner capability-building.
