• Prepare accurate, comprehensive quotes that reflect customer needs and operational variables.
• Provide ongoing support to ensure customer requirements are met with speed, accuracy, and professionalism.

• Own the full sales cycle—from prospecting and discovery to onboarding and account growth.
• Develop strategic business development plans for each account to ensure sustained, profitable expansion.
• Lead discovery calls, opportunity reviews, QBRs, and partner meetings with clarity and precision.

• Communicate service updates and recommendations with accuracy and attention to detail.
• Leverage PCC's value proposition to deliver tailored solutions and identify cross-sell opportunities.
• Grow your network and utilize partner referrals to expand your pipeline and accelerate revenue.

• Participate in required sales training and ongoing education to become a subject matter expert on PCC services and market trends.
• Continuously refine your sales skills, industry knowledge, and consultative approach.

• Travel up to 50% for in-person meetings with prospects and partners, primarily within Oakland, Carson, Seattle, and Tacoma.

• Monday - Friday 8AM - 5PM
• On-site minimum of two (2) days per week
