  • A bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and relevant industry experience.
  • Proven success managing long-cycle, multi-stakeholder solution sales involving software, hardware, operational change, or capital approval.
  • A record of generating new pipeline and converting complex opportunities into revenue.

  • Consultative selling skills, including discovery, value quantification, business-case development, negotiation, and executive-level closing.
  • Ability to distinguish genuine customer commitment from general interest and to disqualify opportunities that lack need, sponsorship, or a decision path.
  • Persistence and creativity in creating demand for operational technology that may compete with other hotel investment priorities.

  • Proficiency with CRM and prospecting tools, including Salesforce and LinkedIn Sales Navigator.

  • Sell HID InvoTech Uniform Management and HID Acuity and Invotion Linen Management solutions according to each customer's operational needs, priorities, and readiness to act.
  • Lead discovery discussions with hotel operations, finance, procurement, ownership, and other stakeholders to quantify labor, linen and uniform loss, inventory, and laundry process improvement opportunities.
  • Reach economic buyers, establish decision criteria and approval processes, and maintain mutually agreed-upon next steps and close plans for qualified opportunities.
  • Develop ROI models, proposals, demonstrations, site assessments, and pilot approaches to reduce barriers to customer adoption.
  • Coordinate solution design, technical validation, pricing, contracting, implementation planning, and customer handoff with Product, Operations, Customer Success, and other teams.
  • Develop regional commercial laundry and linen supplier relationships within the assigned territory, sell HID RFID textile tags, generate partner-led hotel opportunities, and coordinate designated national and multi-region accounts with Sales leadership.
  • Maintain accurate leads, opportunities, activities, forecasts, next steps, and close dates in Salesforce while delivering revenue against an assigned quota.
  • Represent HID at relevant hospitality events, monitor competitors and market developments, and translate customer insights into actionable recommendations.

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with uniform operations, linen management, laundry processes, RFID, inventory systems, or workforce technology is advantageous but not required.
