  • Solution-Led Strategy: Pivot partners away from transactional, feature-based selling.
• Sales & Revenue Generation:
  • Target Ownership: Take full ownership of sales targets by directly supporting partners.
  • Pipeline Management: Work closely with partners to build, track, and accelerate joint business plans.
• Continuous Learning & Enablement:
  • Technical Mastery: Demonstrate a strong willingness to learn the deep technical aspects of hardware-based cybersecurity.
  • Partner Coaching: Train partner sales teams on how to uncover deep-seated client needs.

Candidate Requirements

• Experience & Mindset: 5 to 8 years of high-performance experience in B2B sales, channel partner management, or business development, preferably within the cybersecurity sector.
