Description
The Opportunity Imagine being the person who connects thousands of librarians, faculty, students, and researchers across North America with data that shapes real decisions. With 200+ academic institutions already relying on Passport, you won't be starting from scratch — you'll be building on a proven foundation, deepening relationships, and opening doors to new ones. This role sits at the intersection of sales, consulting, and education. You'll be part strategist, part trusted advisor, and part champion for a product that people genuinely find valuable. What You'll Actually Be Doing Your days won't look the same twice. One morning you might be leading a live demo for a research team at a major university; that afternoon you're working through a renewal negotiation with a library director you've built a real relationship with over two years. You'll dig into how academic institutions think, plan, and budget — and use that understanding to show them exactly how Passport fits into their goals. Concretely, you'll: Own and grow a territory of academic accounts across the US, driving renewals and identifying upsell opportunities in syndicated data and custom research solutions Build genuine, lasting relationships with librarians, faculty, and administrators who rely on your expertise Lead training sessions and product demos — in person and online — that turn casual users into passionate advocates Manage the full sales cycle, from prospecting new institutions to closing contracts, with support from a collaborative internal team Think like a consultant: uncover strategic gaps, understand what your clients are trying to achieve, and propose solutions that actually serve them Requirements What You Bring You're a self-starter who's comfortable navigating complex organizations and building trust atmultiple levels. You know that the best sales feel less like selling and more like problem-solving. Ideally you bring: Proven experience in account management or B2B sales, with a track record of securing renewals and growing accounts Strong communication and presentation skills — you can command a room or a Zoom call with equal confidence Familiarity with the academic or library market (a real advantage, not just a checkbox) Consultative instincts: you ask smart questions, listen carefully, and tailor your approach to each client Solid organizational skills to juggle a busy territory without dropping the ball Why It's Worth Your Time You'll be selling something that has genuine impact in the academic world, backed by a company that invests in its people and its product. If you want a role where your relationships and your judgment matter as much as your numbers, this is it. Benefits Why work for Euromonitor?
