🏢 About Walkme

WalkMe is a leading digital adoption platform (DAP) that helps organizations navigate complex software and workflows. The company is uniquely positioned at the intersection of technology and user experience, making it a compelling choice for those passionate about driving efficiency and adoption in regulated industries.

About This Role

As the Regulated Industries Partner Business Manager, you will lead strategic alliances with government agencies, educational institutions, and ecosystem partners across North America. Your work will directly impact pipeline and revenue growth in the public sector, making this role critical to WalkMe's expansion in regulated markets. You'll be at the forefront of building relationships that drive digital transformation in government and education.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might involve a morning call with a federal systems integrator to align on a joint proposal, followed by a virtual meeting with a state education department to discuss digital adoption for remote learning. Afternoon could be spent analyzing partner pipeline data, preparing for an upcoming RFP response, and collaborating with WalkMe's product team on compliance requirements for a new government client.
