The Opportunity

We’re looking for an exceptional Global Director of Strategic Partnerships to help us accelerate our next phase of commercial growth.

This is an exciting, newly created role with the opportunity to shape our global partnership strategy from the ground up.

In this high‑impact, commercially focused role, you’ll shape and scale our global ecosystem of strategic partnerships; from financial information providers and technology platforms to media organisations and industry networks. Your work will ensure Euromonitor data is seamlessly embedded wherever our customers operate.

You’ll design innovative commercial models, lead VP/C‑suite conversations, and deliver partnerships that expand our reach, grow revenue, and embed our insight into partner workflows across the world.
This role reports to the VP of Partnerships and works closely with Product, Technology, Sales, Research, Marketing, Legal and Finance.

What You’ll Lead

• Build and manage a high‑value global partner pipeline
• Design scalable commercial models (licensing, embedded data, APIs, AI/LLM content use cases)
• Lead negotiations involving data rights, IP, attribution, and revenue shares
• Oversee partnerships end‑to‑end — from deal shaping and contracting to onboarding, activation, and renewal
• Embed Euromonitor content into partner platforms to grow brand visibility and data usage
• Align with cross‑functional teams to drive joint business cases, GTM plans, technical integrations, and commercial success metrics

What You Bring

• Deep experience building and scaling multimillion‑pound partnership portfolios
• Strong commercial acumen: building pipelines from scratch, closing high‑value deals, and scaling global partnerships
• Expertise in licensing, embedded data, APIs/MCP, and AI/LLM use cases
• Senior‑level influencing skills (VP/C‑suite)
• Strong negotiation skills in complex IP and data‑driven environments
• Familiarity with ecosystems such as financial data providers, cloud/marketplace platforms, media organisations, and industry associations

Who You Are

• A builder who thrives on creating new revenue streams and partnership frameworks
• Commercial, structured, and highly strategic
• Brand‑aware and comfortable shaping market perception
• Curious, experimental, and data‑driven
• A clear communicator and highly collaborative operator across commercial, tech, and research teams

Why Euromonitor?

• A globally diverse team across 16 offices
• A culture centred on inclusion, curiosity, growth, and collaboration
• Competitive benefits, flexible working, generous holiday allowance
• CSR commitment with volunteering days and charitable contributions
• A place where your impact is visible — and celebrated
