SBA Regional Sales Manager jobs in Lawrence, MA

JOB BRIEF

The Regional Sales Manager (RSM) will play pivotal role within the Axiomtek team, reporting directly to the Senior Vice President (SVP) of the Eastern USA Business Unit. This primary position is a technical Outside Sales role, strategically focused on tier one prospecting, qualifying, and closing business. The RSM will be responsible for both acquiring new accounting and maximizing sales opportunities within existing strategic accounts in the designated geographic region outlined in” Appendix A”.

ROLE OBJECTIVE

This is a Primary role with direct report to the Axiomtek SVP of The Eastern USA BU.  The Regional Sales Manager (RSM) role is a technical Outside Sales position focused on targeted tier one prospecting, qualifying, and closing business in new accounts and up-selling in existing strategic accounts within the assigned “focused” geographic region in “Appendix A”.  Any accounts discovered by self-directed prospecting outside of the focused region will need to be approved for assignment by the SVP.   Local travel within the focused region will be expected.

Although it is expected that almost all sales activity will occur in the focused region, on occasion, leads may be directed by the SVP on a “named-account” basis outside of the focused region based on logistical or strategic business reasons.  Sales credit splits may be involved.  If so, it will be done on a fair and equitable manner with a heavier weight towards “design origination”.

It is expected that the RSM will spend a high percentage of his/her time on accounts with a potential to generate >$100K/yr.   The guideline for any <$100K/yr. opportunities is to either delegate the account to the regional inside sales person for management or to involve an authorized Channel Partner.

The RSM role involves superior knowledge of the sales cycle, creative prospecting and large account development.  It is further expected that the RSM is skilled with penetrating target accounts and developing relationships at a high level within those accounts. Although leads will be provided to the RSM through marketing and web site sources, it is expected that at least 40% of the new opportunities be generated by organic methods such as cold calling, upselling, trade show attendance, industry networking, self-directed email blasts, channel networking and other business development efforts.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES include the following. Other duties may be assigned.
