• You think beyond the current motion. Expansion into new verticals within Strategic is a core part of your mandate — you identify where the segment's addressable market can grow and build the go-to-market motion to capture it.
• You operate at the executive level as a matter of course. You are a visible sponsor on the segment's largest and most complex opportunities, and you shape how Strategic's strategy connects to and influences the other segments across NAMER.

- Serve as executive sponsor on the segment's largest and most strategic accounts, engaging directly with C-level buyers and shaping deal strategy at the highest level.
- Hire, develop, and hold accountable a team of L2s, and ensure those L2s are doing the same for their front-line managers — building coaching and accountability discipline through two layers of management.
- Shape cross-segment strategy, influencing how Strategic aligns with Key, Commercial, and Enterprise on pricing, coverage, account movement, and go-to-market priorities.
- Represent the segment in executive and board-level reporting, delivering credible, well-substantiated forecasts and business narratives to GTM leadership.
- Drive rigorous forecast discipline and pipeline hygiene across the NAMER Strategic org, delivering accurate and credible business reporting to GTM leadership.
- Partner with Business Development, Solution Engineering, Advisory, Marketing, and Zip's Partner network to build and accelerate pipeline across the segment.
- Identify structural gaps in coverage, capability, or capacity across the segment and close them through hiring, org design, or process change.
