In this high-impact, outbound hunter role, you will pioneer a new vertical by delivering real-time maritime intelligence directly to C-suite decision-makers, underwriters, and claims leaders across the US insurance corridor. By translating complex vessel and geospatial data into actionable underwriting profitability and loss-prevention strategies, you will directly influence how global trade risk is evaluated and managed.
Drive full-cycle sales growth: Prospect, consult, demonstrate, and close new business opportunities across marine underwriters, P&I clubs, cargo insurers, and brokerages.

Maintain forecasting rigor: Manage sales activity within CRM to consistently deliver predictable quarter-over-quarter quota performance and achieve 90%+ commit accuracy.
3+ years of proven full-cycle quota-carrying sales experience in B2B SaaS, data, or analytics solutions with an active hunter mindset.
Strong executive presence and comfort conducting regular, in-person meetings across target account hubs (up to 30-40% travel within NY/CT and Texas).
Demonstrated ability to navigate complex, multi-stakeholder selling environments and close deal sizes ranging from $30K to $150K+ ARR.
