Company Overview

Quest Software builds the foundation for enterprise AI with solutions in data governance, cybersecurity, and platform modernization. More than 45,000 companies — including 90% of the Fortune 500 — trust Quest to solve their most critical IT challenges. From securing identities and modernizing platforms to preparing data for AI, we help enterprises unlock their full potential.

As a Channel Account Manager, you are a critical contributor and collaborator in driving strategic business growth. You will lead territory and market analysis as part of the go-to-market (GTM) planning process to accelerate partner revenue, enablement, demand generation, deal execution, sales and delivery skill development, and customer advocacy.

You bring a strong sales-oriented skill set rooted in accountability, actionability, and persistence. Equally important, the partnership development aspect of the role demands exceptional relationship-building abilities and a service-oriented mindset—supporting partners effectively while ensuring Quest’s goals are achieved throughout the sales cycle. Success in this role requires a well-rounded skill set and experience that blends business acumen, continuous learning and tenacity.

Operating remotely from your manager, you must be a self-starter who makes decisions with clarity and confidence. You will thrive in a cross-functional ecosystem that includes Sales, Presales, Marketing, Global Alliances, Customer Support, Product Management, and other support functions. A deep understanding of Quest solutions is essential, along with the ability to clearly articulate business value and demonstrate how to drive transformation within our target markets.
