Sales Manager
About The Position
Did you know that sensor location data from aircraft and satellites are highly inaccurate on the order of 10s to 100s of meters? Now, imagine what that means for teams operating a mission in a hostile environment.
At Edgybees, we are a small (and growing!) company on the fast track to bring clarity and accuracy to lifesaving and exploratory missions. We provide accurate georegistration and augmented reality of satellite imagery and aerial video in real-time, enabling defense, public safety, and critical infrastructure decision makers to successfully complete their missions.
Are you looking for your next challenge? We need a sales manager that is passionate about technology and passionate about their customers! Our Sales Team is at the front end of finding opportunities for our technology and products in the market. As Sales Manager you will be responsible for identifying, cultivating and closing new business opportunities within the commercial and defense markets. The ideal candidate is an independent self-starter with a technical understanding of geospatial imagery products.
Your success will be determined by your ability to close deals, meet targets and accurately manage and forecast the pipeline of new opportunities.
