Global Strategic Alliances Lead, Agentic Commerce and Retail Industry

Who we are

About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies - from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups - use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone's reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

The Global Alliances and Channels team drives growth by building and scaling go-to-market partnerships with world-class professional services firms—including global systems integrators and consultancies—alongside strategic technology leaders like AWS, Salesforce, and Adobe. Our mission is to provide users with a comprehensive ecosystem of technology and industry expertise while ensuring Stripe and our partners build high-growth, mutually beneficial businesses. We bridge the gap between Stripe’s platform and the specialized solutions our users need to scale globally.

What you’ll do

As the Agentic Commerce and Retail Lead, you’ll drive partner strategy for this industry while delivering the thought leadership and credibility needed to build executive relationships and GTM solutions across partner Retail practices, expanding the value of our joint business.

A priority focus for this role will be to align partners with the transformative shift towards AI-driven shopping, ensuring they view Stripe as a strategic partner in this evolving landscape. You’ll work in tight alignment with Industry GTM, Agentic Commerce GTM, Product, Sales, Solutions Architecture, and Product Marketing teams.

You will define and scale retail-specific Agentic solutions with select partners, embedding Stripe’s payments and billing infrastructure into the core of broader digital transformation initiatives. Success is measured by partner-led user acquisition and revenue growth across this cohort.

Responsibilities

  • Identify, prioritize, and engage key Retail partners to build a global ecosystem that strengthens Stripe’s leadership in the industry
  • Accelerate next-phase Agentic Commerce growth by developing joint partner solutions with our top partners
  • Facilitate effective co-selling strategies and execution with partners for agentic solutions
  • Own and execute the end-to-end partner plan across enablement, solutions, marketing, investments, and GTM programs
  • Influence and align senior product and GTM leadership on strategy, priorities, and roadmap direction
  • Embed platform capabilities into partner Retail solutions to generate incremental pipeline through partner routes to market.
  • Activate and collaborate with field teams to scale top-of-funnel and partner-led pipeline generation
  • Enable and equip partners to consistently deliver high-quality solutions and services
  • Evangelize our top partners internally across Stripe and externally with customers, analysts, and industry influencers
  • Support and advance enterprise deals in partnership with account teams through signature and activation
  • Partner and iterate with Product and GTM teams to capture insights and continuously refine industry-leading solutions

Hybrid work at Stripe

This role is available either in an office or a remote location (35+ miles or 56+ km from a Stripe office).

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.

Working remotely at Stripe

A remote location is defined as being 35 miles (56 kilometers) or more from one of our offices. While you would be welcome to come into the office for team/business meetings, on-sites, meet-ups, and events, our expectation is you would regularly work from home rather than a Stripe office. Stripe does not cover the cost of relocating to a remote location. We encourage you to apply for roles that match the location where you currently live or plan to live.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $172,900 - $259,300. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.
