The Software Enterprise Sales team is a group within Motorola Solutions, Inc. that provides industry-leading, next-generation citizen engagement, computer-aided dispatch, records management, jail management, public service 311, and analytics software applications to the public safety and public service markets.

We are seeking a top-performing, technical sales professional who understands the unique approach to selling our company's public safety software solutions to prospective customers, while developing and maintaining excellent customer/client relationships.

Customer relationships are developed by phone contact, personal visits, tradeshow attendance, onsite discovery, software demonstrations, oral presentations, and through attending regional user group meetings. Sales responsibilities are assigned by region or major geographical area and territories are sized by total customers operating as a "host" agency.
