The Enterprise Sales Executive is a quota-carrying, national-coverage role responsible for driving new revenue within a focused set of strategic, industry-aligned accounts organizations typically representing $5B+ in annual company revenue. This role owns the full account and opportunity lifecycle, from strategic account planning through executive-level negotiation and close, across SAP consulting, migration, and Day 2/managed services engagements. The ideal candidate is a consultative, quota-proven seller who can navigate highly complex, politically decentralized buying groups and reposition legacy managed-services conversations as agentic AI-enabled transformation. This role requires 30-50% travel and reports into our VP of Sales, Steve Winslow.
Enterprise-Specific Requirements- 10+ years of quota-carrying transformation and operations/Day 2/Managed Services sales experience
- Proven track record carrying a $5M+ quota, with demonstrated history of exceeding quota (top 10% of company) in prior roles
- Strong technical and relationship-based domain expertise in regulated industries such as Aerospace & Defense, Energy/Utilities, Oil & Gas, Industrial Manufacturing, Transportation, Telecommunications, or Pharmaceuticals
- Demonstrated ability to target, engage, and manage a focused set of industry-oriented strategic accounts (typically $5B+ in annual revenue) on a national basis — navigating multiple buying groups, highly complex political maps, decentralized buying motions, long sales cycles, and multi-year contract structures
- Proven track record identifying, engaging, sustaining, and closing large, complex annuity-based deals in excess of $5M TCV

- Drive new revenue at prospective and existing accounts, selling across the SAP consulting, migration, and managed services marketplace
- Own the entire account and opportunity sales cycle end-to-end, for both short- and long-term engagements
- Build and execute a predictable closing plan; negotiate and close complex managed services engagements at the executive level
- Maintain rigorous CRM hygiene and leverage automation for timely, accurate pipeline and sales-cycle management
- Qualify key clients and opportunities against a well-defined ICP
Strategic Account Management
- Develop and maintain strategic account plans, Win Themes, political/relationship maps, and competitive landscaping for complex, multi-stakeholder engagements
- Operate with an account-focused sales approach rather than a transactional/opportunity-driven one

- Build business cases grounded in future-state efficiency and knowledge continuity, appropriate to selling an emerging solution category, rather than point-in-time cost comparisons
- Structure both combined migration-and-Day-2 engagements and standalone migration deals designed to convert into long-term managed-services relationships via an embedded AI-driven capability
Cross-Functional Collaboration & Ecosystem
- Co-sell with SAP and hyperscaler alliance teams (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) to align on current market differentiators, partner capabilities, and joint offerings
- Build and manage pipeline through a blend of self-sourced enterprise prospecting, partner-led (SAP/hyperscaler) co-sell opportunities, and Marketing-supported inbound
- Leverage AI tools (Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, etc.) to accelerate internal and external sales processes, deliverables, and value propositions
- Use account intelligence platforms (Draup, ZoomInfo, etc.) to understand key account initiatives, constraints, and core strategies, and convert that intelligence into strategic account plans
- Working technical fluency in SAP ECC-to-S/4HANA migration concepts, Day 2 managed services, and applied AI/automation — sufficient to engage IT and enterprise architecture stakeholders as a credible technical counterpart
- Strong knowledge of SAP, Red Hat, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and ServiceNow
- Thrives with autonomy; operates with the highest level of integrity while thinking big and embracing ambiguity and challenges
- Excellent executive presence and negotiation skills in high-stakes, multi-stakeholder settings
- Medical/dental/vision - 100% paid for employees, 50% paid for dependents
