Company Description

Dropbox is a leading global collaboration platform that's transforming the way people work together, from the smallest business to the largest enterprise. With more than 700 million registered users across more than 180 countries, our mission is to design a more enlightened way of working. From our headquarters in San Francisco to eight dedicated Studios and a worldwide team of employees who choose where they work best, our Virtual First approach is leading the way into the future of work.

Team Description

The Dropbox Business Development team develops and manages 3rd-party relationships on behalf of the company to deliver high-impact partnerships that generate material revenue and enable our product strategy. We work with a variety of partners, including hardware and software providers, strategic partners, and distribution partners.

Role Description

Dropbox is looking for a senior leader to drive the creation of a new telco distribution channel for Dropbox, end-to-end. We believe there's a $100M+ opportunity in having Dropbox services resold, bundled, and/or otherwise distributed via telcos. We want you to develop the strategy, pitch it to leading telcos, stand the initial partnerships up, and prove out this hypothesis, so we can make the appropriate investments to grow it to become the nine-figure opportunity it deserves to be.

You should know the space really well, have a rolodex of contacts you can call on, and most importantly, have the 0-to-1 mentality and drive to make something happen where it didn't already exist. You've got to have strategic vision and then the gusto, salesperson-ship, persistence, and grit to make it a reality. We're looking for someone who knows how to make magic happen.

We already have most of the distribution APIs you'd need to do this. You'll also already have a senior-level operations manager to help you stand the initial partnerships up, and we've got a product suite that should be very attractive to telcos. Specifically, while you likely only think of Dropbox as File, Sync, and Share (FSS), we have expanded into a robust suite of tools that are extremely attractive to our large consumer, prosumer, and SMB customer base, including: e-Signature, Backup and Restore, Password Management, Screen Recording, Large File Delivery, Universal Search, and so much more!

We provide a very competitive comp and benefits package and are a virtual-first company, meaning you get to work from anywhere. If you can deliver on the above objectives, we can compensate you well and provide an excellent lifestyle.
