The Team
The AWS Cloud Sales Team is responsible for driving and shaping the future growth of cloud by rapidly acquiring customers and accelerating our customers’ cloud journeys. We do this by creating long-term business relationships based on value and trust. AWS works backwards from our customers, focusing on mission critical use cases and defining how our broad set of technology solutions can help them achieve their digital transformation and innovation goals.
The Role
As an Cloud Sales Manager, you will have the opportunity to lead a sales team of Inside Sales Representatives (CSRs) who focus on acquisition, adoption, and expansion of our full-service portfolio across net new and existing customers within the Enterprise Segment. You will own and positively impact core acquisition metrics for your business including; number of net new customers acquired, number and value of services adopted, and revenue growth. You will manage the career growth and development of CSRs, and you will coach your team on new customer acquisition motions, account acceleration tactics, executing sales plays, and territory and partner strategy. You will act as both an executive sponsor on key customer engagements and an owner of internal go-to-market initiatives that will enable the organization to scale.
About Us
Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon’s culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 16 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust.
Work/Life Balance
Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. It isn’t about how many hours you spend at home or at work; it’s about the flow you establish that brings energy to both parts of your life. We believe striking the right balance between your personal and professional life is critical to life-long happiness and fulfillment. We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives.
Mentorship & Career Growth
Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship.
