Key Responsibilities:

• Territory Ownership: You will be responsible for key Enterprise accounts (CAC 40) across several verticals in the territory, alongside other large strategic prospects.

• Qualification Discipline: Apply MEDDPICC from first call through close, validating metrics, paper process, and mutual success plans at every stage. No Champion? No deal
• Forecast Accuracy: Inspect deals weekly in Salesforce, Gong and Outreach; commit within ±10% each month
• Executive Engagement: Build C‑suite and board‑level relationships that turn risk‑reduction conversations into multi‑year platform agreements
• Internal Orchestration: Lead cross‑functional teams (Sales Engineering, Product, Legal, Marketing, Channel) while remaining the single‑threaded owner from discovery to signature.
• Overachievement: Consistently meet or surpass new‑logo ARR targets; leveraging uncapped accelerators and President’s Club trips
• Protect the security and privacy of Absolute and its customers 

What Success Looks Like:

• Achieve 100% or more of annual quota with 3 to 4 flagship wins in year one ideally in the CAC 40 list, alongside large long term strategic deals
