- **Sales Process Execution**
- Navigate complex deal cycles including procurement, compliance, security, and legal
- Maintain high standards of CRM hygiene, forecasting accuracy, and sales documentation
- Collaborate cross-functionally with SDRs, presales, marketing, legal, and value engineering to close deals

- **Territory & Performance Management**
- Develop and execute a quarterly territory plan with measurable KPIs and revenue goals
- Track deal velocity, pipeline health, and quota attainment with a focus on continuous improvement
- Leverage AI-powered tools and sales enablement best practices to improve efficiency and outcomes
