What is the opportunity?

As the Assistant General Counsel and Director, Global Partner Program, reporting to the Deputy General Counsel – Global Commercial Lead, you will lead Omnissa’s legal support for our global partner ecosystem. You will serve as the senior legal leader across all partner routes to market - including distribution, resale, and managed service providers — and work closely with Omnissa’s partner business and operational teams. Here is a breakdown:

• Serve as the senior legal advisor and primary escalation point for Omnissa’s worldwide channel partner programs, spanning all routes to market.
• Own the strategy for scaling legal support of the partner ecosystem, including playbooks, templates, and contracting processes that drive efficiency and consistency.
• Identify and lead new initiatives to drive automation and efficiency across the team’s work.
• Bonus points if you have experience using AI tools in your daily legal work or to design processes that leverage AI‑enabled workflows.
• Manage the drafting, review, and negotiation of complex and high‑visibility channel partner agreements and guide the team on the same.
• Partner with Omnissa’s partner business leaders and cross‑functional stakeholders (sales, finance, operations, compliance) to align legal strategy with business objectives and Omnissa’s strategic goals.
• Review and assist in maintaining Omnissa’s program terms to ensure they are clear, scalable, and enforceable (program guides, participation agreements, and incentives).
• Provide practical, risk‑based guidance on partner ecosystem matters, including contract interpretation, partner disputes, and enforcement of program terms.
• Collaborate with colleagues across the Commercial Legal Team and the broader Omnissa Legal Team on cross‑functional matters and initiatives.

What will you bring to Omnissa?

• Minimum fifteen (15) years of experience practicing law, including significant experience supporting a global channel partner ecosystem across multiple routes to market.
• Proven experience building channel partner programs and legal infrastructure — not just maintaining existing ones.
• Excellent drafting and negotiation skills, with the ability to communicate complex legal and commercial concepts clearly and concisely.
• Strong business judgment, with the ability to identify and mitigate legal and business risk while providing practical, actionable solutions that support Omnissa’s strategy.
• Demonstrated leadership presence and the ability to act as a trusted advisor to senior business stakeholders.
• Prior experience building and/or leading a partner legal team (or other group within the legal organization), with a demonstrated ability to hire, develop, and manage legal professionals as an organization grows will be considered a strong plus but not an absolute requirement.
• Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, evolving environment, managing multiple priorities and competing demands with attention to detail.
• Collaborative mindset with a track record of building strong cross‑functional relationships internally and with external partners.
• Intellectual curiosity, sound judgment, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves and tackle new and undefined issues.
• A sense of humor — we like to have fun, and it’s an important part of every day.
