• Full-Cycle Success: A demonstrated track record of success with a strong emphasis on hunting (prospecting and closing new logos), alongside experience in farming (strategically cross-selling and upselling to existing accounts).
• Deep Vertical Knowledge: Strong understanding of higher education and business sectors, including their unique purchasing processes, RFP cycles, challenges, and decision-making frameworks.
• Strategic & Influential Communication: Exceptional presentation and negotiation skills. Ability to clearly articulate complex software solutions to diverse stakeholders and persuasively influence internal company initiatives.
• Tech-Savvy & Self-Motivated: Highly driven, results-oriented, and comfortable independently learning and demonstrating new educational technology platforms in a fast-paced environment.
• Education & Travel: Bachelor’s degree in business, education, or a related field (preferred). Willingness to travel as needed to meet with clients and attend industry events.
