Senior Education Sales Manager

At Snowflake, we are powering the era of the agentic enterprise. To usher in this new era, we seek AI-native thinkers across every function who are energized by the opportunity to reinvent how they work. You don’t just use tools; you possess an innate curiosity, treating AI as a high-trust collaborator that is core to how you solve problems and accelerate your impact. We look for low-ego individuals who thrive in dynamic and fast-moving environments and move with an experimental mindset — who rapidly test emerging capabilities to discover simpler, more powerful ways to deliver results. At Snowflake, your role isn't just to execute a function, but to help redefine the future of how work gets done. The Mission The Global Revenue Enablement (GRE) organization exists to equip every audience in our ecosystem — field sellers, technical specialists, and partners — with the clarity, content, and skills they need to execute with speed and consistency. But enablement doesn't stop at the field. The fastest path to consumption is a customer who knows exactly how to use what they've bought. That's where Customer Activation comes in. We're building a function that embeds education directly into the account motion — not as a post-sale afterthought, but as a deliberate strategy to accelerate time-to-value, reduce friction in expansion conversations, and protect consumption in accounts that matter most. The Customer Activation Partner for Japan & Korea will embed education into the account motion across a defined set of top accounts in both markets. This is not as a support function, but a deliberate strategy to accelerate adoption, reduce time-to-value, and surface the expansion signals that matter to the business. You'll operate with significant autonomy, working directly with account teams, customers, and regional delivery resources to build education plans that drive measurable consumption outcomes. And you'll serve as the primary voice connecting what's happening on the ground in Japan and Korea back to the global curriculum and enablement organization. Key Responsibilities Account Education Ownership: Build and maintain education relationships with a defined set of strategic accounts across Japan and Korea. Develop account-level learning plans in partnership with account teams and ensure customers derive measurable value from their training investments Pre-Sales Advisory: Engage early in deal cycles where education is a differentiator or a friction point; scope and solution education packages that accelerate customer confidence and deal progression Localization & Cultural Fit: Partner with curriculum and delivery teams to ensure training content, delivery style, and instructional framing resonate with enterprise audiences in Japan and Korea — flagging gaps proactively and advocating for market-specific adaptations Voice of Customer: Synthesize patterns from customer interactions — common customization requests, recurring knowledge gaps, support themes — and feed structured, actionable intelligence back to curriculum owners on a regular cadence Voice of Partner: Gather ongoing feedback, training requests, and operational insights from regional partners and field stakeholders, synthesizing this intelligence into quarterly "Voice of the Japan and Korea Partner" reports to directly inform GRE strategies, align cross-functional priorities, and shape global content roadmaps. Expansion Signal: Identify and flag education-adjacent indicators of upsell or expansion opportunity; translate high support volume, out-of-scope training requests, or onboarding bottlenecks into account intelligence for the broader GTM team Sales Motion Integration: Build credibility with Japan and Korea field teams as a trusted resource; position education as part of the core account strategy rather than a transactional add-on Program Delivery & Management: Scale and execute global partner enablement initiatives by managing regional delivery cadences, maintaining central
