Your goals are to earn the team’s trust through self-motivation, learning at a high-pace, and engaging with customers and prospects on many levels.

You want to be challenged while exceeding expectations, always seeking to develop and grow new relationships within existing accounts or pursuing new logo business that will result in revenue.

We need you to embrace this changing landscape by working daily with BDRs, Marketing, RevOps, AE peers, SEs, and the VP to execute at the point of attack. We have built the foundation for your success; this role requires you to land firmly within the team, focus on learning the problems we solve and the impact to our customers, and take action to be successful!
