• Plan and execute the sales strategy to meet or exceed targets.
• Effectively engage with other teams: SE, Channel, Solutions Sales teams and Executives on the development and implementation of customer account plans.
• Use the CRM system effectively, responsible for the development, management and closure of forecasted opportunities.
• Manage and drive revenue through complex, multiple go-to-market strategies.
• Execute complex sales and effectively manage the sales process and activities.
• Meet or exceed sales quota.

Experience you can bring:

• Experience working with channel partners and building strong relationships.
• Relationship management and new business sales experience.

• Previous experience with accounts with 2000 employees or more.
• Good analytical and forecasting skills.
• A proven sales background of consistent achievement against quota.
