Strategic Deal Coordinator About our Team You’ll be at the forefront of transforming how science gets done — putting cutting-edge AI tools and world-class research databases into the hands of faculty, researchers, and university leaders who are driving the world’s most important discoveries. This isn’t a routine sales role. It’s a chance to shape the future of research. About the role Embedded with a Regional Sales Director, the Deal Coordinator owns the end-to-end execution of mew business and renewal deals from Agree to Closed-Won. You act as a member of the sales team: your pipeline is the deals after case creation, and your job is to get them across the finish line, on time.
