If you thrive on winning new business, enjoy building trusted relationships and have the drive to own your sales outcomes, this role puts you in the driver's seat. A day in the role: - Take the lead in developing and executing your territory strategy, identifying priority accounts, uncovering new opportunities and building a strong pipeline across the public sector and beyond. - Drive opportunities from the first conversation through to negotiation and close. Understand customer challenges, position the right solutions and turn complex sales opportunities into successful outcomes. - Develop strong relationships with Microsoft, systems integrators, resellers and other channel partners.
