This hybrid role will have you hunting new business while also maintaining and growing some of Scale’s largest accounts. . 

You will have:

  • You’re a creative thinker and have good business sense: This role requires a high degree of sales and business knowledge within global accounts that allows you to autonomously run your business including, but not limited to: Forecasting and reporting, account and territory planning, pipeline creation, project scoping, complex negotiations and account management. 
  • Possess a high degree of EQ that allows you to be effective with a wide variety of personalities and cultures. You know when to push and when to pull back and can read non-verbal cues well.

You are effective in speaking with day-to-day stakeholders up to VP and C-level executives. 
  • A strong track record of selling highly technical products into very large and complex accounts.
