As a Senior Enterprise Account Executive, you will be responsible for selling directly to and managing relationships with named end user accounts with 2501+ users across North California, NV, and UT leveraging our channel partners. Your key objectives will include generating and pursuing leads to meet sales quotas. You will collaborate closely with customers to develop and execute strategic engagement plans aimed at achieving enterprise-wide deployment of Sophos products and services.

This role requires generating enterprise account sales pipeline, qualifying opportunities, and accurately forecasting pipeline. You will manage the sales process through the closure of the sale, continued development, and retention.

You should have an understanding of the enterprise sales cycle, buyer personas, and decision-making processes, and how to successfully navigate them. Being seen as a trusted advisor to senior executives in large organizations and able to build strategic account plans is essential. Exceptional opportunity discovery and deal qualification skills, value proposition presentation, negotiation, and closing skills are required. Solid technical acumen able to explain the benefits of different technologies, strong cybersecurity knowledge is an advantage. Experience of selling through and with channel partners, and ability to thrive in a team selling environment is also necessary.
