TEAM OVERVIEW

This is your opportunity to join a dynamic company with a team that works very well together and has solid organized structures in place. Supra has become a Microsoft Direct (Tier-1) CSP Partner and is investing in its Microsoft practice across Modern Work, Security, Azure, and Copilot. You will be part of a growing team and an evolving company, working closely with leadership in Canada and India.

YOU ARE!

You are someone who knows the Microsoft partner ecosystem inside out. You have lived in Partner Center, you know how CSP direct billing works, and you can explain incentives, designations, and co-sell motions without opening a manual. You take pride in turning Microsoft’s programs into real, measurable business value.

You are a relationship builder. You are comfortable engaging Microsoft account teams, distributors, and internal executives alike. You chase actions, keep cadences alive, and make sure nothing Microsoft offers Supra is left on the table.

You’re not just joining a team—you’re becoming the face of Supra’s Microsoft alliance , in a company that values collaboration, continuous improvement, and a shared commitment to excellence.

The Microsoft Relationship Manager is responsible for owning and growing Supra’s direct Microsoft relationship following our transition to Microsoft Direct (Tier-1) CSP Partner status. This role owns the complete operating rhythm around Partner Center, CSP program compliance, Microsoft Commerce Incentives, co-op/MDF funding, Solutions Partner designations, certifications, co-sell motions, and executive reporting. The Microsoft Relationship Manager acts as the bridge between Microsoft, distributors, and Supra’s sales, technical, finance, and leadership teams. The role reports to the  Director of Product Management , based in Canada.

This is a hybrid role based in India. Delhi NCR or Chennai is preferred; strong candidates from other locations across India will also be considered. As the reporting manager is based in Canada, this role requires regular working-hours overlap with morning EST (approximately 6:30 PM – 10:30 PM IST).

• Manage relationships and commercial terms with distributors and Microsoft for licensing motions, including New Commerce Experience (NCE) transitions.

• Identify and capture co-op/MDF funds, workshop funding, and other Microsoft partner investments.

Designations, Certifications & Enablement

• Manage co-sell readiness: referrals, solution listings, marketplace presence, and Microsoft field alignment.
• Track co-sell opportunities, campaign activity, solution plays, and Microsoft-funded customer workshops.
