Develop and execute territory plans that prioritise high-potential accounts, industries, business challenges, partners, and use cases.

Collaborate with sales engineering, marketing, sales development, leadership, and channel partners to accelerate opportunities and improve conversion rates. Develop productive relationships with value-added resellers, systems integrators, cloud providers, and technology partners to generate joint pipeline, coordinate account strategies, and expand market reach. Maintain accurate CRM records, disciplined forecasting, effective deal management, and a clear understanding of pipeline coverage, deal velocity, and territory performance. Identify opportunities to expand initial customer engagements into additional teams, business units, workloads, and use cases. Requirements: At least 5 years of successful B2B enterprise technology sales experience in a customer-facing role, including in-person meetings, onsite discovery, executive presentations, and strategic account engagement.

Experience managing a high-velocity commercial sales environment with multiple active opportunities and disciplined follow-through. Ability to sell across multiple business functions and buying centres, develop executive relationships, identify decision-makers, and build strong internal champions. Experience working with channel partners to generate opportunities, develop joint account strategies, and accelerate sales. Working knowledge of cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, containers, virtualization, or related infrastructure technologies. Familiarity with AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud; exposure to GPU computing and AI infrastructure is highly desirable.
