Your day at NTT DATA
As a Senior Networking Technology Sales Specialist at NTT DATA, you will use your expertise to pursue and secure qualified leads, working closely with our Client Management team and other departments. As a Sales Specialist, you are also responsible for generating your own pipeline and opportunities within your assigned client base. You'll identify new opportunities within existing accounts and present tailored solutions that meet client needs, showcasing our value propositions and innovative revenue models.

In this role, you will spend a significant amount of time directly engaging with clients at various levels within their organizations, as well as collaborating with our internal subject matter experts.

To thrive in this role, you need to have:
  • Proven success in achieving and exceeding sales and financial goals
  • Excellent ability to deliver engaging sales presentations
  • Proficiency in a team-selling approach to maximize opportunities
  • Thorough knowledge of competitors and the ability to employ successful sales strategies
  • Advanced negotiation skills to craft beneficial solutions for customers, partners, and the organization.
  • Extensive sales experience in a technology or services environment, especially in IT Managed Services.
  • Strong skills in building and nurturing meaningful customer relationships up to the senior leadership level.
  • Ability to define and execute sales strategies with a client-centric approach.
  • Flexibility to adapt to new missions or urgent deadlines quickly.
