You will fill a key role in rapidly expanding our business with existing, high potential customers and acquiring new customers. Being a master of the entire sales process, you will use your creative prospecting skills to broaden our reach in existing customers and gain access to customers who are not currently working with us, but should be. You will work through complex, strategic sales cycles to deliver outcomes for our customers and Pluralsight.

Who you're committed to being:
  • You enjoy learning and are open to new ways of doing things.
  • You are not afraid to be yourself, experiment, make mistakes and learn from them, ask questions, or voice your concerns.
  • When communicating you are self-aware, insightful, and proactive.

  • Research and understand your customer's business objectives, technology priorities and talent initiatives. Align and communicate Pluralsight's value proposition and ensure we become their strategic tech skills development partner.
  • Master and consistently apply the Pluralsight sales framework to ensure successful outcomes.
  • Partner and collaborate with other functional teams such as business development reps, customer success reps, field marketing, product teams and sales engineers.
  • Own and successfully lead through the entire complex sales cycles and buying processes within large enterprise accounts.

Experience you'll bring:
