About the position

Lumen is seeking a dedicated and results-driven individual to take on the role of Regional Enterprise Sales Account Developer. This position is pivotal in driving sales growth within an established geographic territory, focusing on a moderately complex set of products and services. The successful candidate will engage in a variety of prospecting activities to identify and develop new sales opportunities with prospective enterprise customers headquartered in the region. This role requires a proactive approach to sales, utilizing cold calling, premise visits, networking, lead generation, proposal submissions, and customer appointments to build a robust sales pipeline. In this role, you will be responsible for providing accurate and detailed weekly forecasts of identified and proposed opportunities, ensuring that sales quotas are met or exceeded. You will develop comprehensive account plans and strategies aimed at winning new business from new accounts. This includes identifying, bidding on, negotiating, and closing new sales opportunities, while also providing valuable insights to sales management regarding trends and changes within customer organizations.
