Account Executive: Strategic Managed Services

Automated System Design

Job Description

Job Description

Account Executive: Strategic Managed Services

The Role: Hunter, Architect, Pioneer

The Opportunity: Build, Hunt, Scale

As a Founding Account Executive for IT Managed Services, you are not simply selling support—you are selling operational peace of mind and strategic advantage to multi-location enterprises. We are seeking a high-energy hunter who thrives on the chase, excels at identifying 'greenfield' opportunities, and converts them into high-contract-value (HCV) managed service partnerships. This role requires an individual who can architect the sales process from the ground up while leveraging a deep technical background to establish immediate credibility with C-suite decision-makers.

Minimum Qualifications:

  • Proven Quota-Crusher: Documented track record of meeting or exceeding a substantial annual quota in a B2B environment selling managed services to multi-location industries (Senior Living, Hospitality, Retail).

  • C-Suite Access: Extensive experience selling to and building relationships with C-suite executives and Directors of Operations.

  • Translating Power: Proven ability to translate complex technical specifications (Service Desk, Infrastructure Management) into clear, compelling business outcomes and Return on Investment (ROI) for non-technical leadership.

  • Technical Credibility: Strong foundational knowledge of Information Technologies to effectively lead high-level discovery sessions and architect custom solutions.

Responsibilities: 

Strategic Program Development/ Build Go-to-Market 

Pioneer the Sales Playbook: Design and execute the "Go-To-Market" strategy for our Managed Services branch, identifying and prioritizing high-yield territories and targets within key verticals.

  • Build the Pipeline from Zero: Take full ownership of top-of-funnel activity, transitioning the program to a robust, revenue-generating engine through aggressive prospecting, networking, and cold outreach.

Technical Solution Architecture

  • Consultative Discovery: Leverage your deep technical background to lead high-level discovery and analysis of complex client IT environments to uncover critical pain points and hidden inefficiencies.

  • Design for Business Outcomes: Bridge the gap between technical complexity and business value. Architect custom service packages that align with client business objectives and clearly demonstrate a quantifiable ROI.

Revenue Generation & Market Expansion

  • Own the Full Sales Lifecycle: Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles from initial engagement and technical deep-dives to final contract negotiation and closing.

  • Strategic Relationship Management: Cultivate a "trusted advisor" status with key decision-makers at multi-location enterprises, leveraging existing strongholds to expand our market footprint.

Collaboration & Leadership

  • Quarterback Internal Resources: Act as the bridge between the client and our technical teams, ensuring that the solutions you sell are scalable, profitable, and seamlessly onboarded for long-term customer success.

Market Intelligence: Act as the "eyes and ears" on the ground, providing strategic feedback to leadership on competitor analysis and emerging tech trends to ensure our offering maintains a competitive edge.
