🎯 Mission

You're joining Vizzia at a defining moment. The Partnerships division doesn't exist yet and that's exactly the point. Integrators are starting to bring us deals, engineering firms aren't prescribing us yet, and our internal organization is based on direct sales.

Your role: define the strategy, own it in the field, and build the partnerships engine Vizzia needs to scale, starting by convincing internally just as much as externally.

💡Context

You'll work with three types of players:

• National integrators (Ineo, Derichebourg, Sigrénea) — early conversations have happened. You inherit them, structure them, and turn them into real partnerships.

• Engineering firms that write technical specifications (CCTP) for public tenders — they don't prescribe us yet. Some work with our competitors. That's the gap you'll close.

• Public procurement platforms (UGAP, VONUM) — essential access for public-sector clients that can't purchase directly from us.

A few things worth knowing before you apply:

• Vizzia brings real business to integrators - commissions, installation, maintenance. The leverage is there. The job is to use it with intelligence, not blunt force.

• Engineering firms are currently looped in at the end of deals, to formalize a CCTP that's already written. We want them at the table from the start.

• Our internal organization wasn't designed for a partner channel. Changing that is part of the role and one of the exciting challenges.

🚀 Responsibilities

Strategy & build

• Define and validate the 12-month partnership strategy with milestones that are clear, realistic, and yours to own

• Identify, qualify and sign the 5 priority strategic partnerships in year 1

• Build partner onboarding, activation and tracking processes from scratch

Field activation

• Activate local agencies of nationally-signed integrators - create real buy-in where deals actually happen, not just at HQ

• Shift the engineering firm relationship from transactional (post-deal CCTP) to upstream prescription

• Negotiate commercial terms with integrators - defend Vizzia's margin by making the value case, not by making concessions

Internal transformation

• Make Vizzia genuinely partnership-friendly: Sales, CS, Ops, Finance, RevOps — map the friction, fix it, and do it without a reporting line over anyone

• Build a reliable partner pipeline report that gives leadership full visibility, no surprises

📊 Year 1 goals

• 5 strategic partnerships signed

• €2.5M in detected revenue via partners

• 8 qualified leads per month (we'll define this together during onboarding)

• Internal deliverables: partner CRM + commission process + deal attribution rules

✅ What we're looking for

Must-have

• Experience in an integrator / engineering firm / public procurement ecosystem - video surveillance, security, smart city, access control, connected lighting, or adjacent

• An existing network in this world - relationships you've genuinely built, not just names in a CRM

• Public procurement fluency: CCTP, BPU, framework agreements, UGAP/VONUM - you speak the language

• Builder mindset: you thrive without process, without a team around you at first - and you build anyway

• Commercial backbone: you defend a margin, argue on value, and don't reach for the discount lever by default

• Ability to align people across Sales, Ops, Finance - without a hierarchy to lean on

• Track record of building and managing a team

• Professional proficiency in English

Nice to have

• Public sector / local government experience

• Having already built a partnerships function inside a scale-up
