  • Negotiate and close enterprise-level contracts with sophisticated procurement teams, demonstrating command of complex deal structures, pricing models, and implementation timelines.
  • Collaborate with our technical, implementation, customer success, and channel partner teams to ensure seamless onboarding and adoption, serving as the voice of the customer internally and advocating for their strategic priorities.

What you bring
  • 5+ years of direct enterprise sales experience in agriculture, food chain, cold chain, or related industries, with a proven track record of closing complex, multi-million dollar multi year contracts with Fortune 500 and major logo accounts and consistent quota attainment (150%+ performance preferred).
  • Demonstrated ability to build and maintain trust-based relationships with C-suite executives (CEOs, COOs, CFOs, VPs of Operations), speaking their language and understanding their strategic priorities; proven success as a trusted advisor who influences strategic purchasing decisions.
  • Proven experience with enterprise data workflows, EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) integration, and SaaS solutions in complex, regulated environments.
  • Advanced consultative selling expertise-ability to diagnose complex operational challenges, translate them into compelling ROI-driven solution narratives, and position TELUS Agriculture as the strategic partner of choice in competitive bidding situations.
  • Exceptional negotiation and deal-closing acumen, with demonstrated success managing sophisticated procurement processes, complex contract structures, value-based pricing strategies, and navigating multi-stakeholder buying committees.
  • Polished professional presence and executive-level communication skills-ability to confidently engage with and influence senior leadership in boardroom settings and command respect at the C-suite level.
  • Expert-level proficiency with Salesforce or similar CRM platforms, with demonstrated ability to manage complex pipelines, forecast accurately, maintain disciplined sales processes, and drive predictable revenue outcomes.
  • Strong financial literacy and P&L acumen-ability to understand customer margins, budget constraints, and demonstrate measurable ROI impact in proposals and negotiations.
  • Proven ability to develop and execute multi-year account strategies, create mutual action plans (MAPs) with clients, and balance aggressive new business development with proactive account retention and expansion.

  • Certification or training in advanced sales methodologies (Challenger Sale, MEDDIC, Sandler, etc.) demonstrating commitment to continuous sales excellence.
  • Experience mentoring junior account executives and coordinating cross-functional teams (product, marketing, customer success) to align on strategic partnerships with prospects.
