Strategic Partnerships
Partner Management
Business Development
ADT Health Growth & Strategy
Partner Operations & Performance
Go-to-Market Strategy
Placement is based on business needs, skillsets, and academic background. Project work may include supporting product and business partnerships, researching markets and growth opportunities, developing go-to-market plans, tracking partner or business performance, analyzing customer feedback, coordinating cross-functional initiatives, and preparing recommendations that improve customer experiences and business outcomes.
