Enterprise Solutions Account Manager

Important: Current industry experience is essential

Please note: we are only considering applications from candidates who are currently working within the IT infrastructure / technology solutions industry in a relevant sales role.

You must have current, demonstrable experience selling enterprise IT solutions, ideally within a VAR, IT reseller, MSP, systems integrator or enterprise technology vendor environment.

Experience of selling HPE, VMware, Veeam or equivalent vendors delivering solutions within the same enterprise infrastructure, virtualisation, data protection and data centre solution spaces is essential. Experience with the named vendors is not required where you have relevant experience selling comparable solutions from other vendors. For example, experience in compute, storage, networking backup and virtualisation is equally relevant . Unfortunately, we are not looking for candidates seeking to transfer into the technology sector from another sales industry.
