• Proactively identify customer risk and reinforce the mission and operational value of Recorded Future’s solutions.
• Apply a consultative, insight-driven sales approach to uncover customer challenges and align solutions to IC mission priorities.
• Manage the full sales cycle end-to-end, from prospecting and discovery through negotiation and close, navigating federal funding cycles, IC procurement processes, contract vehicles, security reviews, and authorization requirements.
• Partner closely with Sales Engineers and internal teams, including Technical Account Managers, BDRs, Channel, and Field Marketing, to develop tailored solutions and progress complex opportunities.
• Maintain accurate territory and account plans, qualified pipeline, and forecasts in Salesforce and Clari, applying MEDDPICC and balancing new-business pipeline generation, account retention, and expansion growth.
