  • Present tailored CSP solutions that align with customer goals and budget constraints.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor on Microsoft licensing, cloud economics, and support models.
• Collaboration & Enablement

  • Collaborate with Microsoft field teams and Partner Development Managers to align on joint opportunities and incentives.
• Operational Excellence
  • Maintain accurate pipeline and forecast in SalesForce.
  • Ensure compliance with CSP program requirements and internal processes.
  • Support automation initiatives to streamline quoting, provisioning, and billing.

Required Skills And Professional Experience

• Strong understanding of Microsoft licensing models (EA, CSP, MCA) and cloud platforms (Azure, Microsoft 365).
• Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets.
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.
• Familiarity with tools like ServiceNow, CRM platforms, and Microsoft Partner Center is a plus.

Preferred Skills And Professional Experience
