About The Position

Sales Support enables the commercial organization by owning repeatable sales-completion and administrative activities that allow sellers to spend more time selling and customers to receive fast, accurate execution. The role supports Inside Sales, Territory Sales, Strategic Accounts, Channel Sales, and other commercial resources through quoting, order processing, new-account setup, fulfillment administration, and related sales support. Sales Support is distinct from Inside Sales. It does not own customer growth, lead qualification, account strategy, or opportunity selling. Its purpose is to execute commercial administration accurately, consistently, and efficiently and to create clean handoffs across Sales, Customer Service, Finance, Operations, and customers.
