Mission

What you will drive

Own and run a fast-paced, high-volume sales cycle

  • Manage 50–80 opportunities when your pipeline is at full strength, running multiple calls per day across different deal stages.
  • Lead structured discovery and qualification, ending every meeting with clear next steps, and respond quickly to inbound questions and proposal requests.
  • Use templated proposals to move fast while managing more complex RFP responses with care.

Partner closely with your BDR and Solutions Engineer

  • Collaborate daily with your dedicated BDR on outbound strategy, sequencing, and pipeline creation, coaching them to improve meeting quality and funnel conversion.
  • Work with a shared SE to coordinate demos, technical sessions, and evaluations.

Guide inexperienced SaaS buyers through a clear, confident process

  • Help utilities understand how SaaS procurement works, bringing procurement into the cycle early and multithreading across small stakeholder groups.
  • Create structured buying paths that reduce complexity for first-time SaaS buyers.

Drive urgency, clarity, and deal progression

  • Hold alignment sessions, value discussions, and onsite workshops, leveraging in-person meetings to accelerate late-stage opportunities.
