Full job description

About the role:   Microsoft 365 has become the dominant collaboration platform across Government and Education in Australia. The problem is that  it’s  inherently driven by the business users. Where information is created, how  it’s   created,  who it gets shared with, how long it  remains  relevant, and how valuable it is all becomes impossible to manage at scale. Factor AI into the mix, and it can rapidly expose sensitive data and  contribute to the rising cost of storage.    It’s  a problem all agencies and institutions are looking to solve.   As the Enterprise Account Executive, you  are responsible for  helping these agencies realise the value of the AvePoint Confidence platform to solve these core problems. You will create, qualify,  pitch  and close all new revenue from organisations upwards of 2000 employees into Australian Public Sector  and Education  and manage a portfolio of existing organisations .     Using  an account team, it  is expected that you will build positive relationships and ensure the successful  acquisition  of our software to solve our customers’ business problems .     An Enterprise Account Executive’s role is to grow the AvePoint customer base through the development and execution of GTM motions in line with market trends.
