About the Role

Veeam is seeking a high-performing Sr. Account Executive ( based in Montreal ) to drive growth within the Commercial segment in an assigned territory.

Success requires consultative selling, accurate forecasting, and the ability to lead cross-functional teams in a channel-driven model.
