- Expertise in managing complex sales cycles, gaining access to senior executives, and closing multi-stakeholder deals.

- Demonstrated success in both new business acquisition and growing existing accounts.

- A consultative, client-first mindset - able to uncover strategic needs and translate them into actionable solutions.

- Exceptional communication, negotiation, and executive presence.

- An entrepreneurial spirit: self-driven, adaptable, and eager to grow with a dynamic team.

Of course, what is outlined above is an ideal set of expectations, but things may shift based on business needs, and other projects and tasks could be added at the discretion of your manager.
