• Demonstrated success owning full sales cycles — from prospecting through negotiation and close — alongside a history of growing and retaining existing accounts.
• Consultative, value-based selling approach with the ability to build a business case and align a solution to a customer's specific objectives and operational realities.
• Comfort maintaining CRM hygiene, Mutual Action Plans, and multi-threaded account strategies.
• Willingness and ability to travel regularly to meet customers, prospects, and partners in person.
• High integrity, strong collaboration across internal teams, accountability, and a winning mindset.
• Excellent presentation and negotiation skills, with the ability to research key accounts and assess business opportunities within their market.
• Develops and maintains a thorough understanding of Bitsight's products and the broader security and risk landscape, updating sales presentations as specifications evolve.
