Enterprise Account Executive - Mexico

This role is based in-country with local Fastly resources supporting the Mexico market.

Fastly has already disrupted CDN technology and has quickly expanded to become a recognized leader in the security and edge compute markets.

What You'll Do

• Accountable for driving Enterprise ($1B+ in Customer Revenue) new business and logos across multiple verticals (Commerce, Hightech, Fintech, and Financial Services) in Mexico, while meeting or exceeding quota goals, leading all aspects of the sales cycle including prospecting, sales campaigns/meetings, discovery, qualification, negotiation, path to closure, and account management.
• Work closely with internal resources and individually to build a successful pipeline to meet and exceed your individual sales quota.

• Build and manage a partner/channel selling motion alongside direct engagement — identifying, enabling, and co-selling with local and regional channel, reseller, and systems integrator partners to extend territory coverage and accelerate deal velocity.
• Prepare a territory plan and use all available tools to prospect effectively, achieving activity metrics provided by Sales Managers and sales operations. Adhere to territory assignment and pass off conversations that fall into other reps' areas of responsibility.
