  • Traveling within territory one to two times per month to engage customers in person and advance strategic deals

Required Qualifications:
  • Significant enterprise technology sales experience with a track record of managing complex sales cycles and exceeding quota
  • B2B SaaS or cloud enterprise sales experience with a consultative, solution-based selling approach
  • Deep understanding of sales operations, incentive compensation, and GTM strategy

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience selling sales productivity, incentive compensation, or sales operations technology
  • Salesforce experience or administrator certification
  • Background in GTM strategy, sales operations, or revenue operations
  • Experience will be evaluated based on core competencies for the role (e.g., extracurricular leadership roles, military experience, volunteer roles, work experience, etc.)
