Responsibilities :

  • Build and maintain strong, long-lasting customer relationships with strategic clients. Act as the main point of contact and advocate for client needs within the company.

  • Achieve and exceed sales quotas within assigned portfolio by identifying and closing business opportunities.
  • Conduct research and analysis to understand industry trends, competitive landscape, and client feedback to inform strategic planning and identify new business opportunities.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (including marketing, product development, and customer service) to ensure a cohesive and comprehensive approach to market.
  • Provide accurate forecasts and track key account metrics. Report on the status of accounts and transactions, and monitor sales performance against goals.
  • Lead contract negotiations, ensuring favorable terms for both the client and the company.

Qualifications :

  • 5+ years experience selling to large, complex F100 businesses, demonstrating a successful track record of meeting or exceeding targets, preferably in a similar industry or role.

  • Begin to establish relationships with key internal stakeholders, including sales, marketing, product, and customer support teams. Understanding their roles and how they can contribute to the success of strategic accounts is crucial.
  • Start to get acquainted with the portfolio of strategic accounts, including reviewing account histories, previous interactions, and current contracts or agreements. Initial meetings with some key clients may also take place to introduce yourself as their new point of contact.
  • First 90 Days :

  • Develop detailed strategic plans for each key account, identifying opportunities for growth, potential challenges, and strategic objectives. This should be done in collaboration with clients and internal teams.
  • Establish clear KPIs for success within your accounts, aligned with both client expectations and company goals. Begin tracking these metrics closely.
  • Start actively pursuing new business opportunities within strategic accounts, which may involve negotiating terms for contracts or renewals. Efforts to cross-sell or up-sell should also be underway.
  • Implement a process for regularly gathering and acting on client feedback to improve service delivery and client satisfaction.
  • One-Year Outlook :

  • By the one-year mark, you should have met or exceeded the initial sales targets set for your strategic accounts. This includes successfully closing new deals and expanding business within existing accounts.
  • Demonstrated growth in strategic accounts through increased engagement, higher revenue, and enhanced partnership levels. Your strategic planning and execution should result in tangible benefits for both the clients and your company.
  • Established deep, trust-based relationships with key stakeholders within each strategic account. You're seen as a strategic advisor rather than just a sales contact.
  • Identification and implementation of process improvements based on lessons learned over the year to increase efficiency, customer satisfaction, and sales effectiveness.
  • Continued professional growth, possibly including leadership development, advanced sales strategies, and industry knowledge enhancement to better serve strategic accounts and contribute to the company's objectives.
  • Success in an Account Executive Strategic role is measured not just by sales figures but by the depth of relationships built, the strategic value delivered to clients, and the positive impact on the company's long-term growth.
