Role overview
Nasuni is seeking a Strategic Account Manager to own and grow a portfolio of named enterprise accounts across the East region.

This is a field-oriented enterprise sales role for someone who can build momentum in large accounts, engage senior business and technology leaders, and work effectively across direct, channel, and cloud alliance motions.

You will operate with autonomy while collaborating across Nasuni’s go-to-market organization to develop account plans, identify whitespace, engage the partner ecosystem, and advance strategic opportunities.
