  • Orchestrate the extended team (Solutions Engineering, Security/Compliance, Industry Advisors, Customer Success, Marketing, Legal, Finance, and Partners/SIs) to deliver compelling, value-based solutions
  • Become fluent in Box’s platform and integrations, as well as insurance-specific use cases (loan origination, underwriting, advisor productivity, regulated content governance)
  • Maintain rigorous pipeline hygiene, forecasting accuracy, and activity management in CRM; report on leading indicators and execute to plan
  • Contribute to building scalable, repeatable Insurance industry sales plays, customer stories, and partner motions that raise the bar for the team

  • Strong executive presence and ability to engage C-level stakeholders across IT, Security, Risk/Compliance, Digital, and line-of-business functions
  • Highly organized operator with excellent territory planning, pipeline management, and forecasting discipline; adept in Salesforce or similar CRM
