Job description
from Dell Technologies careersAccount Executive, Direct Sales
Do you have the higher education expertise and strategic acumen to shape markets, create demand, and establish Dell Technologies as the leading partner for digital transformation in U.S. colleges and universities?
Higher education is undergoing profound transformation, shaped by artificial intelligence, changing student demographics and engagement patterns, staff burnout, heightened cybersecurity risk, and new opportunities to reimagine teaching, learning, research, and community engagement in a digital economy. Dell Technologies collaborates with colleges and universities to advance their missions of recruiting, retaining, educating, and graduating students by providing secure, scalable, and cost-optimized multicloud and modern infrastructure solutions that span the campus data center, public cloud, and edge environments.
Institutions increasingly turn to Dell to establish a modern digital foundation, enhance the student experience, accelerate research, modernize constituent services, and enable institutional innovation and agility.
Role Overview
The Higher Education Strategist shapes markets, creates demand, and positions Dell as a thought leader in U.S. colleges and universities through strategic advisory work, executive relationship-building, and thought leadership. This role identifies and qualifies opportunities at the top of the funnel, provides market intelligence, and establishes Dell's credibility with senior institutional leaders.
This is a strategic advisory and market-shaping role, not a sales support or deal execution role.
