We are specifically looking for individuals or organizations who are comfortable working on a performance-based commission structure, where earnings are driven by the business they successfully generate and close. The commission structure may vary depending on factors such as: Type of engagement Deal value Gross commercial value Revenue realization One-time vs. recurring engagements Software/hardware sales Consulting projects Training and cybersecurity programs Resource/talent placements Managed or long-term engagements The objective is to create a mutually beneficial commercial relationship: the stronger the business generated and revenue delivered, the greater the partner's earning potential.
