You will develop in-depth knowledge of our vendors’ solutions and use this expertise to advise customers on the technologies that best support their business goals.

- Own the end-to-end commercial process, from pricing and quotations to deal follow-up and order management
- Proactively communicate on product availability, lifecycle changes, and special offers
- Collaborate closely with internal stakeholders and contribute to sales initiatives across Ingram Micro
What we’re looking for

- At least 4 years of experience in IT sales, distribution, account management, or inside sales, preferably within SMB, field sales, or business development
