  • This role sits at the intersection of sales execution, technical fluency, and cross‑functional collaboration—and is critical to our growth in the Enterprise segment
  • Own your territory & build pipeline: Develop and execute a proactive outbound cadence (email, call, social) that generates ≥50% of your booked opportunities
  • Deep discovery & qualification: Uncover pain, business impact, budget, and decision criteria using frameworks like MEDDPICC so you chase only the highest‑confidence deals
  • Value storytelling & demos: Craft and deliver tailored narratives and live demos that map Elastic’s Search, Observability, and Security capabilities to measurable business outcomes
  • Mutual deal strategy & forecast accuracy: Collaborate with customers to build formal close plans and keep your CRM up‑to‑date, maintaining ≥90% forecast accuracy within ±10%
