In short

Synopsys is seeking a Senior Associate Sales Account Representative in Sheffield, England. This role involves managing existing customer relationships, driving renewals, and identifying expansion opportunities within a defined territory. The ideal candidate will have experience in technical sales or customer-facing roles, with a strong ability to build rapport and demonstrate business value.

Responsibilities

  • Own a defined territory or set of named accounts in the UK, managing renewals and identifying expansion opportunities.
  • Conduct face-to-face and remote sales conversations with engineers, technical leaders, and procurement teams.
  • Build and maintain account plans that track customer profiles, usage patterns, whitespace opportunities, and competitive positioning.
  • Write clear, compelling proposals and quotations.
  • Coordinate across internal teams including sales engineering, legal, finance, and technical support.
  • Deliver accurate revenue forecasts for both new business and renewals, updating pipeline status weekly in CRM.
  • Represent Synopsys at trade shows, customer sites, and technical seminars.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, business, or a related technical field with at least 1 year of professional experience, or 3+ years in a customer-facing or sales role without a degree.
  • Fluency in English, both written and spoken.
  • Willingness to travel up to 50% of the time across your territory.
  • A working understanding of technical or engineering workflows, or the ability to learn them quickly.
  • Experience managing multiple opportunities at once using a CRM or pipeline tracking system.
  • Demonstrated ability to write proposals, coordinate across internal teams, and close deals without constant oversight.

Desired Qualifications

  • You can sit in a technical conversation with an engineer, ask the right follow-up questions, and walk out with a clear picture of what they need and why it matters to their business.
  • You treat your pipeline like a living document, updating it without being reminded because you know forecasting matters and surprises hurt the team.
  • When a deal stalls or a customer stops responding, you do not wait for someone else to fix it, you pick up the phone, send the email, or schedule the visit.
  • You coordinate well across teams, pulling in sales engineering when you need technical depth, looping in legal when contract terms get complicated, and keeping everyone informed without creating unnecessary noise.
  • You are comfortable presenting to small groups, whether that is a product demo, a business case review, or a renewal discussion with a procurement lead.
  • You understand that customer relationships are built on follow-through, if you say you will send something or check on an issue, it gets done.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive range of health, wellness, and financial benefits.
  • Total rewards include both monetary and non-monetary offerings.
