About the Role

We are hiring a B2B Marketplace Operations Manager to serve as the operational architect for Deel’s transition to a curated B2B ecosystem. This role is at the center of our "one-marketplace" experience, ensuring app discovery, license management, service referral and software resale motions operate in one connected flow. You will lead the effort to turn marketplace activity into a high-impact revenue stream while ensuring a frictionless experience for Deel’s customers.

Key Responsibilities

Marketplace Operations

• Own day-to-day operations of Deel’s app resale and marketplace infrastructure (web + in-platform).
• Maintain accurate partner and app listings including positioning, pricing context, service model (managed vs. self-managed), and geographic coverage.
• Ensure the marketplace operates as a trusted single source of truth for internal GTM teams and customers.

App Resale Motion Enablement

• Support execution of app resale motions across priority partners/vendors and categories.
• Operationalize workflows for license provisioning, transfers, and renewal routing.
• Help distinguish and operationalize managed vs. self-managed resale offerings in collaboration with Ops/GTM stakeholders.
• Coordinate with Procurement and partner/vendor stakeholders as resale workflows evolve from manual to API-assisted operations.

Quality, Curation & Partner Tier Governance

• Apply and maintain a high bar for client-facing marketplace quality.
• Prioritize differentiated B2B solutions over low-signal, non-strategic offerings.
• Implement tiering and filtering logic so high-fit partners receive high-fit lead flow.
• Own the continuous evaluation of partner relevance by segment, use case, and market demand.

Lead Flow, Monetization, & Commercial Tracking

• Manage lead distribution and track reciprocal value exchange from resale and marketplace partners.
• Support governance of discounts, margin logic, and commercial terms visibility.
• Track key monetization KPIs and partner performance with RevOps and Partnerships.
• Own operational reporting on outbound referrals, conversion, and resale contribution.

Internal Enablement & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Serve as the go-to resource for AEs, CSMs, and OBMs for partner and app referral routing and general inquiries.
• Create clear internal guidance on partner and app selection, alternatives, and customer-fit use cases.
• Surface field feedback to inform roadmap, partner prioritization, and marketplace UX improvements.
• Collaborate with Product Partnerships and Partner Marketing on campaigns and bundles to build initial and sustained long-term adoption of the web and in-platform marketplaces.

Requirements

• 3–6 years in B2B marketplace, partner, ecosystem, GTM operations, or a related SaaS/tech role.
• Experience supporting resale, licensing, procurement-adjacent workflows, or partner commercial programs.
• Strong operational execution across data integrity, process design, and cross-functional coordination.
• Solid understanding of B2B software categories (HRIS, ATS, security, finance, productivity, IT ops).
• Ability to define and enforce quality/tiering standards in partner ecosystems.
• Comfort with revenue-share / discount mechanics and performance tracking.
• Strong communication and documentation skills for partner positioning and GTM enablement.
• Bonus: experience with marketplace and app store operations.
