Job Summary

As a Services Account Executive, you are the face of the Professional Services (PS) organization to our clients and our account teams. Your ultimate responsibility is to evangelize and sell our key PS offerings, focused on Consulting and Managed Services solutions. You will work daily with solution architects, clients and account teams to identify customer needs, map appropriate solutions, deliver customer proposals, and secure contracts for these services. We are looking for aggressive and experienced sales professionals who feel comfortable speaking with customers on topics such as hybrid cloud, Automation, AI/ML, DevOps, data management and data security.

This role requires a self-starter. There is ample support in the form of contracts, scoping, and technical teams, but the SAE needs to build strong relationships with key clients and with NetApp account teams. This can be, at times, a highly unstructured role, so having the ability to manage your own work schedule and work flow is critical. This is a quota-bearing role with semi-annual or annual targets.

Our solutions include sku'd services and custom contracts for our services. Experience developing custom contracts (with the support of a contract review and legal team) is preferred for this role

The role is part of a true team. We are seeking an individual who wants to participate with the team. If you are a lone wolf, this is likely not the best fit. We are a collaborative PS Sales org! Job Requirements

* Strong Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint capabilities
