I assume that many of the companies popularly discussed on Blind that offer high TC tech roles also offer high TC sales and business development opportunities. What companies and sales/BD roles offer the highest TC (focused on minimum $500K TC annually, but ideally above $1M) for sales and BD? Seeking to identify the upper echelons of individual contributor roles, as well as management positions. Product categories I have previous experience selling/am interested broadly in are IoT, SaaS, AI, Cloud, Telecom Infrastructure/Services, Security, Hardware, Managed Services and other related categories. Based in US and seeking to continue working remotely. Happy in my current role, but always interested to see what I might level-up to.
A few years old, but here is a somewhat related Reddit thread: https://reddit.com/r/sales/comments/46cdo4/highest_earning_potential_sales_jobs/
This is obviously a troll post, but the real answer to it is global account executives at the major enterprise software companies - Microsoft, Amazon, Oracle, SAP. Many of these guys manage a portfolio that is $200M+/year and get compensated proportionately
How is this a troll post?
Just starting out as a Tam with gcp. Is this a good way to grow into the above roles
AWS enterprise field sales (I’d assume same or similar for Azure with GCP further behind) On the biz dev side you’re also looking at Partner level at VCs. Really most enterprise field seller roles will get you 300K+ then look at the industry leaders to find the top billers.
