About the role:
The Alliance Sales Director is a deal-focused specialist with expert understanding of how the Alliance Partner goes to market and is responsible for originating, qualifying, shaping and supporting the successful conversion of sales opportunities, while driving the growth of the Alliance and all related metrics, with a focus on converting qualified pipeline into commercial outcomes and wins.
