  • Leverage Team Support: Partner with your virtual team, including business development representatives, pre-sales, customer success, marketing managers, and partner managers, to drive success.

The qualifications you need:

  • Proven SaaS Sales Experience: A strong track record of success in enterprise SaaS sales, with a focus on securing new business and consistently achieving revenue targets.
  • Expertise in Complex Sales: Experience managing long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles within large enterprise accounts.
  • Industry Knowledge: Familiarity with enterprise business applications such as Analytics, BI, or ERP, with the ability to engage with C-level executives (e.g., CFO, COO, CSCO, CPO) at Automotive and OEM suppliers
  • Business Acumen: A solid understanding of business processes and key performance indicators across Life Sciences process domains
  • Strong Communication Skills: Exceptional presentation and storytelling abilities to confidently influence senior stakeholders and decision-makers.
  • Collaborative Mindset: A team-oriented approach, leveraging internal and external resources to achieve shared goals.
