Senior Business Value Consultant

MongoDB’s mission is to empower innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries by unleashing the power of software and data. We enable organizations of all sizes to easily build, scale, and run modern applications by helping them modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our industry-leading developer data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available in more than 115 regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas allows customers to build and run applications anywhere—on premises, or across cloud providers. With offices worldwide and over 175,000 new developers signing up to use MongoDB every month, it’s no wonder that leading organizations, like Samsung and Toyota, trust MongoDB to build next-generation, AI-powered applications.

Business Value Consulting (BVC) is a critical, client-facing role where the consultant will work closely with the MongoDB Sales team, playing a key role in driving the business forward. In a pre-sales perspective, BVCs engage with clients to capture and communicate the potential business value that our solutions provide. For post-Sales, BVCs consult with customers to ensure they are seeing value and identify new growth opportunities. You will work across all industries, evaluating the business benefits and financial value to companies primarily in our Enterprise market.

The ideal candidate is excited to help the team scale up with an adaptable and critical thinking mindset, with a combination of sales and business acumen, technology skills (ideally, application development and data oriented) and comfortable communicating quantitative and qualitative value messaging. 

This role will be focused in the Americas, primarily supporting West with flexibility to support Mid-West and South regions as needed. The opportunity for remote customer engagements allows us to support multiple Sales regions.
