Job Summary

Partnering closely with Field Account Executives, you'll research target accounts, engage decision-makers, qualify interest, and book meetings that build a healthy sales pipeline.

  • Decision-Making: Evaluates prospect fit and prioritizes outreach efforts to maximize pipeline impact.
  • Interpersonal Skills: Builds rapport quickly and establishes credibility with prospects and internal partners.
