• Identify whitespace opportunities and engage stakeholders at all levels with a consultative approach.
• Build and sustain relationships with senior decision-makers, including CxO-level, aligning Colt’s solutions to evolving customer outcomes.
• Drive strategic account planning and executive briefings to strengthen long-term partnerships.
• Use insights and analytics to prioritize opportunities, develop value propositions, and shape winning strategies.
• Own and manage pipeline and forecasting accuracy using modern sales methodologies (e.g., Challenger, MEDDPICC, SPIN).
• Drive incremental revenue by expanding Colt’s footprint within existing underperforming enterprise accounts.
• Identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities across Colt’s portfolio including cloud connectivity, SD-WAN, security, and voice.

• Act as a trusted advisor and mentor to less experienced account executives and support peer enablement.

What we're looking for

• Recent and relevant enterprise sales experience in B2B environments, ideally within digital infrastructure, telco, IT services, or SaaS.
• Demonstrated ability to revive dormant accounts, activate whitespace, and consistently exceed growth targets.
• Proven track record managing complex, multi-divisional enterprise accounts with international presence.
• Deep experience in executive stakeholder management and strategic opportunity creation.
• Exceptional commercial acumen, negotiation skills, and the ability to balance long-term vision with short-term execution.
• Ability to translate customer outcomes into commercially viable solutions across networking, cloud, and digital transformation domains.
• Highly autonomous, entrepreneurial, and driven by outcomes – not activity.
• Strong command of pipeline discipline, forecasting accuracy, and CRM hygiene (e.g., Salesforce).
• Proficiency in consultative and insight-led selling methodologies.

Education

• A bachelor’s or master’s degree in business administration, marketing or a relevant field (or equivalent experience).

What We Offer You
