How would you bring in new deals and develop Keepit’s position in Northeast?

Keepit is looking for an SMB Account Executive to join our Sales team and target customers in Northeast.

We are growing fast as a company, and we are set on using our momentum to bring our SaaS cloud-based backup services to a global audience. As part of our expansion, we have brought in talented sales professionals across the US. Now we are looking for a SMB Account Executive to join our sales team in the US and work with customers and partners in Northeast along with our team in that area.

As SMB Account Executive at Keepit, you will play a vital role in our ambitious expansion plans. You will work closely with the Partner and Channel ecosystem and take ownership of the complete sales cycle for small and midsized customers up to 1000 seats: From identifying and reaching out to prospective clients, to facilitating demo-meetings, and ultimately closing deals.

Key Responsibilities as SMB Account Executive:

• Own the complete sales cycle, including nurturing contacts, conducting screen share or in-person demos of Keepit’s SaaS solution.
• Establish and nurture strong relations with customers and key decision-makers to sell Keepit’s platform and software solution.
• Systematically managing your pipeline and forecasting accurately on a monthly and quarterly basis.
• Collaborate closely with the Regional Partner Manager in the region.
• Leverage your network of potential customers and partners to help us grow a thriving partner-eco system in the region.
• Work creatively to hunt for new business and build new relations with potential customers by thinking outside the box and brainstorming new ideas with sales leadership in the US.

You will be joining our team in the US and report to our VP of Sales for the Americas, Fahad Qureshi. We expect you to work from within the region, ideally from the Boston area or a similar business hub as we expect you to meet with our customers and partners.

We will focus on the following:

1) SaaS sales expertise: The candidate we are looking for has a comprehensive understanding of direct sales within the Cloud industry or back up/ infrastructure solutions.

Therefore, it is important that we work united by a shared commitment to reaching ambitious goals, overcoming challenges, and creating value together. It is crucial that you thrive in being a team player and share ideas and align your efforts with the team.

3) Developing our partner ecosystem: For this role it is crucial to have a deep understanding of the partner ecosystem and how to effectively collaborate with VARs in the region to generate business opportunity with the Regional Partner Manager.
