What You’ll Do:

• Distributor relationship management: Serving as the primary point of contact for Resi's distribution partners, including leadership alignment, line card positioning, quarterly business reviews, and day-to-day operational coordination.
• Distributor enablement: Building and running enablement programs in partnership with the Channel Solutions Engineer — inside sales training, outside rep ride-alongs, sales tools, and battle cards.
• Dealer recruitment and activation: Driving recruitment and activation across the entire distribution base, including both the existing dealer population and newly recruited dealers.
• Dealer base segmentation: Analyzing the dealer population by transaction activity and reason for inactivity, prioritizing effort where it is addressable, and routing product-driven gaps to Product Management as market intelligence.
• Revenue ownership: Carrying and reporting hardware and software performance separately, and managing to each rather than to a blended revenue figure.
• Customer handoff motion: Building the dealer-to-Customer Success introduction motion that supports the renewal conversation for distributor-sourced customers.
• Distribution expansion: Developing the playbook, readiness criteria, and onboarding process required to bring on additional distribution partners.
• Market analysis: Staying informed about market trends, competitor activity, distribution dynamics, and customer needs to adjust channel strategy accordingly.
• Event representation: Representing Resi at industry, distributor, and integrator-facing events throughout the year, including events that are not channel-specific but draw the integrator community.
• Collaboration with internal teams: Coordinating with sales, marketing, product, engineering, customer success, and support to ensure aligned messaging and smooth channel operations.

What You’ll Bring:

• Two-tier distribution fluency: Understanding the distinction between sell-in and sell-through, and how distribution economics, inventory, and line card priority work.
• Influence without authority: Comfort producing results through a partner's sales organization rather than selling directly; the day-to-day work is enabling and influencing people who do not report to Resi.
• Enablement and presentation ability: Able to train and present credibly to a room of sales reps; enablement is a continuous part of this role rather than an onboarding phase.
• Analytical skills: Ability to interpret dealer-level and revenue-type data, segment a large partner base, and act on what the data indicates.
• Negotiation skills: Ability to structure and manage distribution agreements, program terms, and partner expectations.
• Industry understanding: Familiarity with broadcast and production technology, and the systems integration business.

Education and Experience:

• A high school graduate (or holder of an equivalent degree) with BS/BA preferred
• 3+ years of indirect or channel sales experience
• Experience working with or for a two-tier distributor, or at a manufacturer selling through distribution, strongly preferred
• 3+ years experience in the production/live event space and/or professional AV industry
• Experience carrying a recurring revenue or subscription number is useful but not required
• Strong computer skills
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Travel expected
