- Collaborate with marketing to leverage account-based marketing (ABM) campaigns, using these as a complement to direct outreach efforts.
- Partner with BDRs to research, qualify, and engage prospects effectively
- Manage and drive the full sales cycle from prospecting to close, navigating complex deals within enterprise-level organizations.
- Work closely with the internal alliances team and GSIs and Salesforce account teams to align on mutual objectives, co-sell effectively, and drive shared customer success.
- Develop multi-threaded relationships within target accounts, engaging stakeholders across technical, business, and executive teams.

- Use your curiosity to map the Salesforce ecosystem, identifying strategic co-sell opportunities that drive genuine value for both our partners and our customers.
- Stay updated on Salesforce ecosystem trends, tools, and certifications to position Gearset effectively within customer environments.
- Share insights, learnings, and best practices with peers to continuously improve the sales organization.
- Demonstrate a strong understanding of DevOps practices and how Gearset’s solutions enable Salesforce teams to achieve their goals.
- Embrace Gearset’s collaborative culture, contributing to the success of the broader team
