Title: Commercial Account Manager
New York, NY, US, 10001
Job Summary
NetApp’s Commercial Sales team is looking for a dynamic Commercial Account Manager to own and grow a large set of accounts across the New York territory. This is a high-impact, quota-carrying role with a strong emphasis on hunting new business, building whitespace, and expanding existing customer relationships. You will manage a high volume of accounts, partner closely with our value-added resellers (VARs), and leverage NetApp’s portfolio to solve customer challenges across infrastructure, data center, and cloud.
This role is ideal for a hunter at heart who thrives in a fast-paced, activity-driven environment, and wants the variety and opportunity that comes with managing a broad territory.
What You'll Do:
- Drive new business: Prospect, qualify, and close new customers within your assigned commercial territory.
- Expand existing accounts: Once you win a customer, you own them—renew, expand, and grow those relationships.
- Leverage partners: Build and maintain strong relationships with VARs to drive joint sales motions and maximize pipeline coverage.
- Manage high volume: Organize and prioritize across a large account set; stay on top of weekly activity, pipeline, and forecast.
- Sell consultatively: Apply MEDDICC methodology to uncover pain points, identify champions, influence economic buyers, and drive deals forward.
- Own your business: Operate with strong sales discipline—end each week with clarity on what’s next, and maintain a repeatable process for success.
- Collaborate cross-functionally: Work closely with sales engineers, channel managers, and NetApp leadership to deliver customer outcomes.
Job Requirements
- Proven sales experience: 5+ years of successful IT solution sales experience, preferably in infrastructure, data center, or related technology.
- Hunter mentality: Demonstrated success in building new business and driving whitespace opportunities.
- Commercial sales acumen: Ability to thrive in a territory with varied accounts (large logos to SMB), fast sales cycles, and high activity levels.
- Organized and disciplined: Skilled at managing multiple accounts, opportunities, and partner relationships simultaneously.
- MEDDICC fluency: Experience applying structured qualification and discovery methods to drive deals.
- Strong partner relationships: Ability to effectively leverage VARs and channel ecosystem to amplify reach and impact.
- Results-oriented: Track record of achieving or exceeding quota.
- Team player: Comfortable collaborating with peers and leadership while owning your personal number.
