Technology Sales at IBM is evolving its way of working to break beyond boundaries with innovative approaches. Preferring to 'show' vs. 'tell' we're looking for graduates who want to combine their deep technical education with the people skills needed to co-create with customers, partners, and colleagues - face-to-face, on solutions to our clients' most complex business challenges.
In a world where technology moves at speed, it's essential that we stay ahead of the curve to provide tailored solutions that meet our clients' needs. It's not enough for us to have the technical expertise. We need to be great with people, too. To empathize. To understand. To collaborate on technical solutions that will improve lives all over the world.
Excellent onboarding and an industry leading learning culture will set you up for positive impact and success, whilst ongoing development will continually advance your career. Our sales environment is collaborative and experiential. Part of a team, you'll be surrounded by bright minds and keen co-creators – always willing to help and be helped – as you apply passion to work that will compel our clients to invest in IBM's products, services, and people.
We get it. Navigating your career can be challenging. So many roles; all with subtle differences; which ones do you apply for? To help make your life easier, this job post provides everything you need to know if this type of role is right for you, generally speaking. Think you have some of what we're after but not all?
