What Notion sells

One place for docs, projects, and AI help

Teams today juggle endless apps and tabs just to find their docs, notes, and projects. Notion gives them one place for all of it, with an AI helper that finds answers and handles routine work. People spend less time hunting for things and more time on the work that matters.

Worth asking about

Green flags

  • Publishes OTE. It tells you the on-target earnings up front. Most postings don't.

Based only on what the posting says. Flags are a starting point for your first call, not a final judgment.

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    This role has been open a while. What's made it hard to fill?

    The answer tells you what candidates saw that made them walk.

  2. 2.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  3. 3.

    What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?

    Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.

  4. 4.

    Has the comp plan changed in the last 12 to 18 months? What changed?

    A plan that changes every year means the goalposts keep moving.

  5. 5.

    Who sits with reps and reviews calls each week?

    Coaching is often what's behind a good or bad attainment number.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.

WHO WE ARE Notion is the collaborative AI workspace where teams and agents think together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkpYpWfEK5s. We're building one place where your knowledge, projects, meetings, and AI tools live side by side, so work is faster, clearer, and less fragmented. Millions of individuals, small teams, and large companies run their work on Notion. Notinos (our employees) are customer zero in bringing this future of work to life. We care about craft, building things that last, and the belief that great work is still fundamentally human. Our goal isn’t to ship the next feature. Each and every team of Notinos is working to set the standard for how humans work together in the AI era. From building a business’s system of record to making and managing AI agents to automating away the busy work, we care deeply about giving our customers more time for their life’s work. ABOUT THE ROLE Notion is building the connected workspace that teams everywhere use to think, plan, and ship — and our partner ecosystem is central to how we grow in the UK market. As Regional Partner Manager for UK, you'll own our partner relationships across the region, working closely with our London sales team to drive revenue through value-added resellers, hyperscaler ecosystems, and local services partners. This is a builder role for someone who thrives in a dynamic, high-growth environment. You'll be the architect of Notion's UK partner motion — standing up programs, forging relationships, and converting partner activity into measurable pipeline. You'll operate across multiple partner types simultaneously and serve as the connective tissue between our ecosystem and our sales team. The ideal candidate brings a hunter's instinct to partnerships: proactive, commercially sharp, and energised by the challenge of building something meaningful in a market with real momentum. You'll work cross-functionally with sales, marketing, and regional leadership — and you'll be a visible face of Notion in the UK partner community. WHAT YOU’LL ACHIEVE - Own and grow Notion's UK partner ecosystem across value-added resellers, cloud/hyperscaler partnerships, and local services partners - Build and execute joint go-to-market programs with regional VARs and solutions partners - Manage Notion's hyperscaler partnerships in the UK, overseeing cloud marketplace deal flow and co-sell motions - Align partner activity directly to the UK sales team's pipeline — facilitating introductions, mapping accounts, and driving resell and co-sell opportunities to close - Coordinate joint initiatives that bring together reseller partners and hyperscaler ecosystems for combined enterprise programs - Develop and maintain strong executive relationships with partner leadership across the region, becoming a trusted extension of their go-to-market teams - Track and report on partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline; present program performance to internal stakeholders and EMEA regional leadership - Support services delivery by local partners on an ad-hoc basis, helping maintain quality and partner satisfaction - Identify and qualify inbound partnership opportunities, and proactively surface new partner relationships that can expand Notion's reach in the UK - Collaborate with Notion's global and EMEA partner teams to adapt programs to the local market and share learnings across regions SKILLS YOU’LL NEED TO BRING - 10+ years of experience in partnerships, channel sales, or alliances in the enterprise SaaS or cloud software industry - Demonstrated experience managing both VAR/reseller programs and at least one cloud or hyperscaler partnership — comfort across both partner types is essential - A builder's track record: you've stood up partner programs and can point to outcomes you drove - Strong demand generation orientation - Commercially sharp with the ability to connect partner activity to revenue outcomes - Highly collaborative and effective working alongside direct sales teams — you understand what reps need, and you make their lives easier - Executive presence and strong relationship-building skills; you're as comfortable presenting to a partner CRO as you are coordinating logistics with a partner marketing manager - Experience working in or alongside hyper-growth or startup environments — you're comfortable with ambiguity and moving fast without a complete playbook - Based in London with existing knowledge of the UK technology market; willingness to travel across EMEA and occasionally across EMEA - Strong organisational and operational discipline — you manage multiple active partner relationships without dropping balls, and you communicate proactively NICE TO HAVE - Experience with cloud marketplace programs and hyperscaler co-sell motions - Familiarity with product-led growth (PLG) or bottoms-up SaaS go-to-market models - Existing relationships with UK-based VARs, systems integrators, or hyperscaler partner teams - Cross-market EMEA experience — e.g. managing partnerships across EMEA regions simultaneously Notion is committed to providing highly competitive cash compensation, equity, and benefits. The compensation offered for this role will be based on multiple factors such as location, the role's scope and complexity, and the candidate's experience and expertise, and may vary from the range provided below. The estimated range for total on target earnings (including base salary and on target incentive pay) for this role is £162,000 - £190,000 per year.
