Jorge Iván perez
@jorgeivnperez
I’m a Key Account Manager specializing in consultative SaaS and cloud solutions that grow accounts in banking, government, and enterprise.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Key Account Manager with consultative selling experience across technological and professional services, focused on building, expanding, and protecting strategic accounts. I help clients translate business needs into tailored SaaS, software development, cloud, security, and IT services aligned with their objectives and value propositions.
I structure and close complex, multi-stakeholder opportunities end-to-end—using discovery, value proposition design, demos, negotiation, and closing—while coordinating commercial, technical, and delivery teams. I’m strong in pipeline control, commercial forecasting, and account profitability, and I’m SAP-trained with hands-on experience managing CRM and ERP-oriented commercial cycles.
My results come from a disciplined, consultative approach (BANT, Challenger Sale, value management) and from account expansion “land & expand.” I’ve opened and consolidated VIP accounts in banking, government, and corporate sectors, increased revenue per account through recurring SaaS and managed services, and delivered cloud migration/modernization projects—always oriented to operational excellence, ethics, transparency, and results.
