About the role

Encompass is seeking an experienced and motivated Orbit Account Executive to drive net-new sales for Orbit, Encompass' sales execution solution for beverage alcohol suppliers. Orbit helps producers improve field sales execution, strengthen distributor partnerships, manage retailer and distributor programs, and gain real-time visibility into sales, inventory, depletion, and market performance. The Orbit Account Executive will be responsible for identifying, developing, and closing net-new Orbit opportunities. This role will manage the full sales cycle from account activation, pipe creation & progression (value articulation, demo, proposal, contract) and deal closure; and transition to post-sale teams. The Orbit Account Executive will sell Orbit only and will focus on new producer/supplier customers rather than broader Supplier Cloud sales. This role will collaborate closely with Marketing on campaigns and demand generation, with Product on customer and market feedback, and with Customer Success and Implementation to ensure a smooth handoff after close. The Orbit Account Executive will accurately represent Orbit capabilities, clearly set customer expectations, and document relevant requirements before transition to the teams responsible for adoption, launch execution, and enablement. Travel is expected for select industry trade shows, conferences, customer meetings, onsite demos, and Encompass events.

Sales Cycle Ownership: Own the sales process from initial engagement through demo, proposal, negotiation, contract close, and handoff to post-sale teams.

Product Feedback: Provide timely and constructive feedback to Product Managers based on customer conversations, prospect objections, competitive insights, and recurring needs identified during the sales cycle.

Marketing Collaboration: Partner with Marketing to support Orbit campaigns, email outreach, webinars, trade show materials, sales sheets, blog content, customer communications, and event follow-up.

Handoff to Post-Sale Teams: Collaborate with Customer Success and Implementation to ensure expectations, requirements, commitments, and customer context are accurately documented before transition.

Metrics and Reporting : Track and report on target accounts, sales activities, qualified opportunities, pipeline progression, close rates, bookings, and other Orbit sales metrics.
