The Executive, Strategic Global Partnerships & Ecosystem will be responsible for defining, building, and scaling the company’s global revenue partner ecosystem. This executive will architect and steward a world-class network of strategic partners, including global systems integrators, technology platforms, hyperscalers, services firms, and ecosystem leaders that materially extends OpenAI’s reach, accelerates enterprise and public-sector adoption, and drives durable, long-term revenue growth. This role operates at the intersection of strategy, revenue, product, and external ecosystem leadership. Beyond executing partner motions, this leader will shape how OpenAI goes to market globally through partners - deciding where partnerships matter most, which partners fundamentally change OpenAI’s trajectory, and how ecosystem leverage becomes a sustained competitive advantage. The Executive will work in close partnership with the CRO, Chief Commercial Officer, Product leadership, and executive team to ensure partnerships are fully embedded into OpenAI’s GTM, product roadmap, and long-term growth strategy.
