About the role

  • Hunt & Close (New Business): Your primary drive is net-new revenue. You will identify, navigate, and close deals with customers who fit into our target ICP.
  • Communicate Value: Move beyond feature dumping. You will diagnose a prospect's technical bottlenecks and quantify how our solution improves their efficiency, reduces risk, or increases their revenue.
  • Land & Expand (Account Growth): You own the relationship. Once you close a deal, you will foster that partnership, identifying new opportunities within the account to increase wallet share.
  • Orchestrate the Deal: Act as the "Quarterback," coordinating Solution Architects, Procurement, and Legal to manage complex sales cycles from discovery to signature.
  • Pipeline Integrity: Maintain transparent pipeline coverage in Salesforce, ensuring accurate forecasting for both new logos and account growth.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

  • Deep B2B sales experience specifically within the IaaS, Hosting, Data Center industries, or adjacent types of solution sales.
  • Understanding of the ecosystem (Bare Metal, Public Cloud, Connectivity).
  • Ability to explain complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
  • 5-7+ years of experience in a closing role with demonstrable new business deals you sourced and won.
  • Demonstrated understanding of modern IT environments: How infrastructure, storage, managed hosting, private cloud, and customer-owned environments integrate to support business outcomes.
  • Strong foundation with growth mindset.
  • At least ~60% of the required technical and commercial expertise and the drive to continuously learn, refine, and expand capabilities in a complex sales environment.
  • Experience managing the full customer lifecycle, balancing the aggression needed for hunting with the empathy needed for account management.
  • Energetic, competitive, and thrive in an entrepreneurial environment where you are fully responsible for your own book of business.
