• Redirect requests to other HPE teams for tasks not in scope for SOS

• Maintain an Excel based tracker of requests and prepare monthly scorecards

• May serve as a process expert for one or more processes supporting SOS teammates

About you:

• 2-4 years of experience in sales, sales support, or sales process roles preferred

• Bachelor’s degree in business management or equivalent experience preferred

• Exceptional customer service focus with sharp attention to detail
