Your Responsibilities and Impact

  • Partner with account executives on technical strategy and sales process for accounts in your territory.
  • Be the technical solution expert across platform capabilities, including AI, data modeling and planning applications.
  • Lead discovery sessions that move beyond features and functions to uncover critical business needs.
  • Design and deliver tailored, narrative-driven demos that directly address customer pain points and showcase a clear vision for their future.
  • Execute proof-of-concept workshops that prove Anaplan's value in the customer’s own context.
  • Serve as the voice of the customer to our product management teams, ensuring your insights from the field shape the future of the Anaplan platform.
  • Coordinate and align specialist and product teams to help position multi-product solutions and mature complex opportunities to close.
  • Develop a multi-year technology vision and roadmap with your customers in cooperation with the Anaplan Customer Success team.

Your Qualifications

  • 7+ years of experience in a presales, solution consulting, corporate finance (FP&A), or business transformation role (SaaS/enterprise software preferred).
  • Know how to collaborate with account executives and own the technical sales process, including account strategy, discovery, demos, solution roadmaps and other technical validation steps.
  • Strong grasp of value-based selling and storytelling, not just showing features and functions.
  • Skilled with problem solving at the intersection of technology and business.
  • Proven ability to make complex ideas sound simple, clear, and persuasive with experience in public speaking.
  • Knowledge of enterprise AI platforms, GenAI, Agentic frameworks, machine learning, and data integration.
  • Hands-on experience with enterprise planning processes and solutions (e.g. Finance, Supply Chain, Workforce, Sales Performance) preferred
  • Deep expertise in core financial planning and analysis (FP&A) processes, including budgeting, forecasting, and long-range strategic planning.
  • Familiarity with EPM, CPM, BI, or ERP systems is a strong asset.
  • Prior experience in a specific industry (e.g., Financial Services, Manufacturing, Retail) is a plus.
