It’s an exciting time to be at Infoblox. Named a Top 25 Cyber Security Company by The Software Report and one of Inc. magazine’s Best Workplaces for 2020, Infoblox is the leader in cloud-first networking and security services. Our solutions empower organizations to take full advantage of the cloud to deliver network experiences that are inherently simple, scalable, and reliable for everyone.

We are looking for a Territory Account Manager to join our Australia team. You can be based remotely in Perth, Brisbane, Canberra, or Melbourne, and will report to the country manager of Australia and New Zealand. In this role, you will own revenue growth and expand the Infoblox footprint across the Australian market by driving new logos, building a robust pipeline of opportunities, and increasing “stickiness” with existing customer accounts through cross-selling and upselling.

You’re the ideal candidate if you pursue results relentlessly, always seek to understand customers’ “what, why and how?” and enjoy the thrill of doing deals and making things happen. You’re a motivated self-starter who is curious about finding solutions. To be successful in this role, you marry the discipline of a planner with the instincts of a shark—you never stop moving and you’re ready when you smell an opportunity.

Direct and drive sales growth across both the Enterprise and Commercial spaces

Hunting and driving new logos, platform expansion, and install base upsell. Continuously build a sales pipeline, and cultivate new business opportunities

Cultivate relationships and collaborate closely with solution architects and Channel and Engineering teams to identify and address customers’ business needs, challenges, and technical requirements

Leverage external partners to drive solution development in new areas/prospects

Coordinate with the Business Development team to strategize lead and sales opportunity qualifications

Create innovative solutions that address the customer value chain and business requirements

What you’ll bring:

Strong understanding of complex technical problems in the networking and security and/or cloud industry

Experience selling SaaS technology with a strong track record of hitting and exceeding targets

Strong business acumen, results-oriented mindset, ability to build a strong business pipeline, and accurate deal-closing skills

Strong relationship-building skills and experience selling at the executive level

A “roll up your sleeves” and a “can-do” attitude

A willingness to collaborate across teams both internally and externally to drive positive outcomes

Agility, velocity, sense of urgency, and flexibility

Discipline and the ability to structure activities against time, pipelines, and desired outcomes

A customer-centric focus and the ability to build relationships with customers

What success looks like:

After six months, you will…

Confidently communicate Infoblox technology offering and our value proposition

Be building new quality pipelines, ramping up, and executing activities driving towards deal closures

Develop go-to-market (GTM) strategies and account business plans for key and named accounts

Maintain good sales operational hygiene – forecast accuracy, discipline, and know your accounts/business

Build and deepen relationships with stakeholders, both internally (ie. Solutions Architect, Channel Sales, Marketing, Renewals, etc.) and externally (ie. Partner network and ecosystem) to build economies of scale and momentum

After twelve months, you will…

Further refine GTM and long-term pipeline growth, improving competency across our key offerings (B1DDI, TD, etc.)

Deliver consistent or exceed quarterly results

Expand your customer portfolio across key strategic verticals within 12-18 months

Successfully execute your 12-month plan and integrate with other teams/stakeholders (PS, Channels, PSS, etc.)
