This is a $3-4 billion target market so there will be no shortage of opportunities to make your mark.

• Executive Relationship Building: Cultivate and maintain relationships with senior decision-makers including CIOs, LOB leaders, CFOs, CEOs, and other stakeholders.
• Complex Deal Orchestration: Lead multi-BU transformation deals combining hardware, software, services, and partner solutions. Manage governance cadence, mitigate risk, oversee timelines, and drive pilots/POCs to validate value.
• Solution Shaping: Reframe customer priorities and sequence investments for maximum impact — focusing on outcomes, not just SKUs.
• Team Leadership: Coordinate cross-functional teams including HPE business units, partners, presales, and implementation resources to deliver successful outcomes.

Key Qualifications

• Strong business acumen: Ability to frame customer challenges, quantify impact, and connect to HPE solutions with clear financial fluency (TCO/ROI).

• Self-driven, confident communicator with a track record of exceeding revenue and growth targets.

Required Experience

• Led multi-year account strategies for major enterprise customers, delivering measurable business outcomes.
• Sold integrated hardware, software, and services solutions; demonstrated ability to focus sales approach on business cases rather than product lists.
• Regular engagement with senior executives (CIO/CFO/COO/agency heads); able to develop relationships across lines of business, IT, procurement, finance, and program/mission owners.
• Closed complex, partner-intensive deals involving hardware, SaaS, and services; experience driving customer transformation initiatives.
• Background in complex technology sales across multiple solution areas; experience with HPE’s portfolio (including Networking) and hybrid cloud solutions preferred.
• Industry experience in financial services beneficial but not required.
