Support Partner Strategy: Collaborate closely with Channel Partners and Partner Managers to align on customer engagement and utilise partner resources to advance opportunities.

Reactivate Customer Relationships: Focus on re-engaging dormant or inactive customers by discovering new business use cases and identifying potential refresh and expansion opportunities.

Build Foundational Skills: Develop and deliver proposals and business cases that clearly demonstrate the value of Pure's solutions, supported by internal experts.

Maintain Sales Discipline: Diligently manage sales technology (Salesforce), deliver accurate forecasts, and maintain strong time management to thrive in a fast-paced, team environment.

What You Bring

Proven Sales Experience: Demonstrated success in direct, full-lifecycle B2B technology sales with a consistent record of meeting or exceeding sales metrics (KPIs).

Sales Drive & Motivation: A high degree of self-motivation, strong time management skills, demonstrates initiative and the drive to learn quickly and succeed across both transactional and early-stage strategic sales motions. 

Collaborative Mindset: Demonstrated success working with both internal teams and channel partners to ensure seamless customer engagement and shared goal achievement.

Digital Proficiency: Proficiency with core sales technologies, including Salesforce and G Suite, and an ability to use data to prioritise daily activities. 

Communication & Presence: Strong verbal and written communication skills suitable for engaging with business leaders and maintaining professional business relationships.

Resilience & Focus: A competitive, positive attitude combined with strong organisational and time management skills necessary to handle a dynamic, high-activity territory.

Language Skills: Business Level, written and spoken, German and English language skills required.

Nice to Have

Industry Knowledge: Prior knowledge of the storage industry and familiarity with how data solutions drive business outcomes.

Channel Sales Expertise: Understanding of channel-led sales motions and experience collaborating effectively within the broader partner ecosystem.
