• Lead the full sales cycle: discovery, solution design, presentation, negotiation, and close.
• Partner with Laketec’s engineers, project managers, and support teams to deliver customized solutions.
• Represent Laketec at local industry events and networking functions.
• Consistently meet and exceed sales targets.

What You Bring

• A proven track record of hunting and winning net-new business.
• Strong knowledge of IT solutions and comfort with complex, multi-solution deals.
• Excellent communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.
• Self-motivated, organized, and energized by building a new territory.
