- Collaborate with Google Cloud FSRs, AEs, CEs, and partner teams on joint account planning and co-sell motions.
- Manage the full sales cycle with support from solution and leadership teams: discovery, shaping solution approach, coordinating proposals, commercials, and closure.
- Position a defined set of Google Cloud offerings and our services playbook rather than “everything to everyone,” focusing on a prioritized solution set.
- Keep CRM, pipeline, and forecasts accurate and up to date.
- Represent the company at select Google Cloud events and targeted industry forums to generate leads and build relationships.
Required Experience & Qualifications

- At least 3–5 years of Google Cloud–related sales experience (or mix of 2–3 years very strong GCP plus prior cloud services sales), with evidence of meeting or exceeding quota.
- Solid working knowledge of key Google Cloud areas: infrastructure, security, data & analytics, databases, and AI/ML/Gen AI, with the ability to bring in specialists when needed.
- Proven hunter profile: demonstrates ability to open new accounts, land initial deals, and then expand footprint.

- Strong communication and presentation skills; comfortable presenting to director, VP, and some C-level stakeholders with guidance where needed.
- Good account and territory planning discipline, with a structured approach to prospecting and pipeline building.

Google Cloud Ecosystem & Industry Focus
- Existing working relationships with Google Cloud sales and technical teams (FSRs, AEs, CEs, partner managers) in at least one US region, or clear evidence of rapidly building such relationships.
- Demonstrated experience participating in co-sell motions with a hyperscaler or Google Cloud (joint account planning, deal reviews, solution workshops), even if not yet at “top-tier” strategic level.
- Prior exposure to retail, CPG, or other consumer-centric segments is highly desirable; direct ownership of a few accounts or deals in these industries is a strong plus but not mandatory.
