Job description

At Ensono, our Purpose is to be a relentless ally, disrupting the status quo and unleashing our clients to Do Great Things!  We enable our clients to achieve key business outcomes that reshape how our world runs. As an expert technology adviser and managed service provider with cross-platform certifications, Ensono empowers our clients to keep up with continuous change and embrace innovation.

 

We can Do Great Things because we have great Associates. The Ensono Core Values unify our diverse talents and are woven into how we do business. These five traits are the key to achieving our purpose:

 

Honesty, Reliability, Curiosity, Collaboration, and Passion.

 

About the role and what you'll be doing: 
 

The Business Development Executive is a senior, proactive hunter who independently owns new logo acquisition for Ensono. Unlike a supporting role, this position sits at the forefront of Ensono's growth strategy — leading the full early-stage sales motion from market identification through pipeline development, executive engagement, and deal closure. This role is ideal for a driven, strategically minded seller who thrives on building relationships with enterprise-level clients and delivering meaningful, measurable revenue impact.

Key Responsibilities:

  • New Logo Acquisition: Proactively identify, target, and pursue net-new enterprise clients across defined territories and verticals. Own the business development motion from initial identification through qualified opportunity hand-off or close, driving measurable revenue growth for Ensono.
  • Strategic Pipeline Development: Independently build and manage a robust, self-sourced pipeline of high-value opportunities. Develop and execute territory and account plans that align with Ensono's growth priorities and market positioning.
  • Executive-Level Relationship Building: Establish and deepen trusted relationships with C-suite executives, board members, and key decision-makers within target organizations. Position Ensono as a strategic partner and long-term adviser across managed services, cloud, and hybrid IT.
  • Market Intelligence & Go-to-Market Strategy: Conduct ongoing analysis of market trends, competitive dynamics, and emerging client needs. Translate insights into actionable prospecting strategies and proactively surface new areas of opportunity for Ensono's leadership and GTM teams.
  • Cross-Functional Leadership: Lead and coordinate across sales, marketing, product, advisory, and solution teams to develop compelling, client-specific value propositions. Drive alignment across internal stakeholders to ensure a seamless and effective pursuit experience.
  • Deal Participation: supporting complex, multi-stakeholder deal cycles including solution scoping, proposal development, commercial negotiation, and contract discussions. Partner with legal, finance, and delivery teams to bring opportunities to close.
  • Performance Accountability: Own individual revenue and pipeline targets. Consistently monitor, report, and reflect on key performance metrics, providing transparent updates to sales leadership with a continuous improvement mindset.
  • Mentorship & Elevation of the Team: Serve as a senior resource and informal mentor to Business Development Representatives and junior sales colleagues. Contribute to the elevation of team capability, best practices, and a culture of proactive selling.
