- Snowflake is seeking a proven Sales Leader to head up our Enterprise Acquisition team, based out of Melbourne.
- You will support and lead a team of Enterprise Acquisition Account Executives based out of Melbourne, Perth, and Adelaide in a build and rebuild mandate.
Responsibilities
- Lead, coach, and build a team of enterprise Account Executives focused on acquiring net-new logos across the Australian market.
- Instil MEDDPICC-based qualification across the district and coach AEs on their top pursuits with deal control and genuine urgency.

- Drive a focused lighthouse account strategy aimed at opportunities that grow into multi-million dollar consumption relationships.
- Orchestrate multi-layered enterprise engagements across Sales Engineering, Professional Services, and the partner ecosystem.

- Attract, hire, and retain top sales talent, differentiating performance and acting decisively on underperformance.
Requirements
- 10+ years in enterprise or field sales, including proven success leading and coaching quota-carrying teams.
- A clear point of view on acquisition selling and how it differs from expansion, with the ability to drive it across a district.
- Fluency in MEDDPICC or a comparable value-based qualification methodology.
- Experience orchestrating complex, multi-stakeholder deals through commercial and legal negotiation with procurement, legal, and business stakeholders.
- A track record of displacing incumbent and legacy technology in cloud or software sales.
