Your Role:

The Manager, PAR Ecosystem Enablement is a senior cross-functional leadership role within the PAR Business team. This person will own and lead FF’s dealer/partner (FF Par) enablement function end-to-end — architecting the enablement strategy, building and scaling the program infrastructure, and driving measurable improvements in dealer readiness, productivity, and satisfaction. Working at the intersection of business, legal, content, and multiple sales pillars, this role sets the direction for how FF equips and develops its external partner ecosystem.

This is a strategic yet hands-on leadership role requiring strong program ownership, cross-functional influence, and excellent bilingual communication skills in both English and Mandarin Chinese. The ideal candidate brings proven experience leading multi-stakeholder programs in a B2B or channel context, and the ability to operate effectively at both the strategic and execution levels. Work location is El Segundo, CA; domestic and international travel may be required to support dealer engagements and partner events.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Enablement Strategy & Program Ownership

• Define and own the overall PAR dealer enablement strategy, establishing a clear vision for how FF develops and sustains a high-performing dealer ecosystem.
• Lead the design, launch, and continuous improvement of structured enablement programs covering dealer onboarding, product training, go-to-market readiness, and commercial capability building.
• Translate business objectives from PAR leadership into executable enablement roadmaps with defined milestones, resource requirements, and success metrics.

• Build strong working relationships with functional leaders and subject matter experts to ensure enablement programs reflect the latest product, commercial, and compliance requirements.

1. Dealer Development & Ecosystem Growth

• Lead the design of scalable dealer development frameworks that enable FF’s partner network to grow in capability, coverage, and commercial performance over time.
• Oversee dealer-facing communications strategy, ensuring consistent, professional, and bilingual messaging across the PAR network.
• Drive the planning and execution of dealer development events, training programs, and partner engagement initiatives — from strategy through logistics.
• Build feedback loops with the dealer ecosystem and translate insights into program improvements and strategic recommendations for PAR leadership.

1. Legal, Compliance & Policy Integration

• Work closely with Legal and Compliance to ensure all dealer-facing enablement materials, onboarding processes, and partner communications meet FF’s regulatory and governance standards.
• Own the compliance dimension of dealer enablement, including qualification checkpoints, certification tracking, and audit-readiness of program documentation.
• Lead the update process for compliance-sensitive enablement content, ensuring materials remain current with regulatory changes and internal policy updates.

1. Content & Knowledge Management Leadership

• Direct the development of bilingual enablement content — including training curricula, product guides, sales playbooks, and partner portal resources — in partnership with the Content team.
• Establish and maintain content governance standards, version control processes, and distribution channels to ensure the dealer network always has access to accurate, up-to-date resources.
• Build internal knowledge management systems for the PAR Enablement function, enabling institutional knowledge to scale with the team.

1. Performance Management & Continuous Improvement

• Define, own, and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) for dealer enablement programs, including onboarding completion, training engagement, partner readiness scores, and program ROI.
• Present regular program performance reviews to PAR leadership with data-driven insights, trend analysis, and clear recommendations for program evolution.
• Foster a culture of continuous improvement within the enablement function, regularly benchmarking against industry best practices and incorporating learnings into program design.

1. Team & Capability Building
