About This Job Family

People in this job family build relationships that create new business opportunities—partnerships, integrations, channels, and strategic alliances. They find the deals that wouldn't happen through normal sales motions and structure the agreements that make them work.

What You'll Do

New Market Development professionals identify and pursue expansion into new markets—geographic, vertical, or segment. They validate opportunities, develop entry strategies, and build the relationships needed to succeed in unfamiliar territory. Success means successful market entries that become meaningful revenue contributors.

  • Support market entry initiatives with guidance
  • Conduct market research and opportunity assessment
  • Develop market entry proposals and business cases
  • Build initial relationships in target markets
  • Coordinate pilot programs and early customers
  • Track market entry metrics and progress

Every responsibility is an accomplishment waiting to happen. The question is: will you own the outcome, or just do the task?

AI as an Accelerator

AI isn't a skill we call out. It's invisible in the accomplishment but easily visible in the velocity and scale of your outcomes. Here's how people in this role are accelerating their work with AI:

  • Building market assessments
  • Analyzing entry barriers
  • Creating presentation materials

**Your Career Record. Your Portable Proof.**

The Competencies That Matter

Skills fill your toolbox. Competencies are how you wield them. Three matter most at this level:

1. BUSINESS DEV & PARTNERSHIPS (3) Strong Business Dev & Partnerships skills required at this level.

2. STRATEGY (2) Strong Strategy skills required at this level.

3. MARKETING (1) Strong Marketing skills required at this level.

The radar shows the full picture. These three are where you need to be undeniable.

Your Journey From Here

Going up? Your next Tour of Duty:

→ Senior Market Development Rep - New Market (L3) "Lead a market entry to initial revenue"

The L2 → L3 gap is about OWNERSHIP: • From executing tasks → owning outcomes • From writing code → designing systems • From asking questions → answering them

These are your stretch accomplishments. Start doing L3 work now. When you can prove it with accomplishments, you're ready.

Going sideways? That's valid too.

Up isn't the only direction. It's your career. You own it.
