  • Work with Marketing to execute and improve targeted campaigns, including tradeshow follow‑ups
  • Collaborate with ISEs and TSMs on strategic territory development initiatives
  • Prepare and submit detailed graduation requests to the Director of Sales after first deal closure
  • Participate in weekly team meetings and 1 : 1 sessions with Sales Leadership
  • Create and manage all new account and contact entries in the CRM, ensuring complete and accurate data
  • Submit weekly performance summaries outlining outreach activity and progress
  • Attend designated trade shows and industry events as required for lead generation and networking
