- Identify, prioritize, and sequence target accounts in coordination with the Growth (Account Management) and Solutions teams.

Team Leadership & Process Ownership:

- Provide market intelligence from prospect conversations - deal blockers, competitive signals, market gaps to inform product and GTM strategy.

- Proven track record of exceeding outbound pipeline targets in B2B enterprise environments; prior experience selling to IP, legal, or R&D leaders is a strong differentiator.

- Strong command of outbound sales tools and platforms: LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, Outreach, HubSpot, Salesforce, or equivalents.
