• Navigate the Eqvista Sales Process from initial Contact to Closed/Won, utilizing the Value Framework to qualify deals and review opportunities
• Leverage technical and cross-functional resources effectively to optimize success rates
• Collaborate across departments to advance Eqvista's objectives, fostering positive relationships internally and externally to enhance customer satisfaction and productivity
