• Lead full-cycle deal execution including solution positioning, proposal development, commercial alignment, and negotiation with customer decision makers to close new business agreements.
• Partner with specialists and pre-sales teams to shape solution architecture and validate value propositions while maintaining ownership of the sales strategy and closing process.
• Maintain accurate CRM data on stages, next steps, and forecasts to support sales governance.
• Prepare detailed post-sale handoffs to Customer Success for smooth onboarding and early adoption.
• Meet or exceed established performance goals for pipeline generation, new customer acquisition, and sales revenue.
