  • Collaborate with leadership to create the sales strategy for the EU territory, focusing on companies with annual turnover above $30M.
  • Desire to own projects and exceed expectations, with ability to find solutions and deliver results within a rapidly changing, entrepreneurial, technology-driven culture.
  • Ability to identify and solve client issues strategically and manage upper level-management and C-suite relationships.
