- Performance & Insights: Track, measure, and report on key account engagement, pipeline creation, and deal acceleration metrics—continuously testing, optimizing, and applying insights to evolve Sprout's regional ABX approach.

Preferred qualifications for this role include:
- Direct experience marketing to diverse EMEA audiences and supporting Enterprise/Strategic multi-threaded sales cycles
