About the role
We are looking for a driven, curious, and impact-focused Account Executive to join our growing team. You will drive revenue growth across mid-market and enterprise accounts by helping organizations automate their ERP processes with AI.
Responsibilities
- Create and execute a territory and account plan covering target accounts, stakeholders, sequencing, and multi-threading strategy.
- Maintain disciplined pipeline hygiene and forecasting, operating a repeatable, metrics-driven cadence and reporting proactively on progress, risks, and what you need from the organization.
- Challenge the customer's initial framing and introduce a sharper point of view on where value is trapped: exceptions, approvals, master data, controls.
- Run executive discovery to uncover operational bottlenecks and decision friction, then translate it into a crisp target-state narrative, urgency, and mutual action plan.
- Build internal alignment across CFO and CIO led buying committees, including champions, economic buyers, IT and security, and process owners.
- Own the business case, pricing strategy, proposals, negotiation, and contracting. Quantify and communicate value in terms executives act on: capacity release, cycle time reduction, working capital improvement, control and compliance, stack simplification.
- Drive deals to closure with clear next steps, strong deal governance, and accurate forecasting.
- Run your own discovery workshops, demos, and technical conversations in the early phase before Solutions Engineering coverage is in place.
- Customize decks and collateral by segment, persona, and use case, and feed the patterns that work back into marketing and product.
- Partner with Solutions Engineers to run workshops and demos and de-risk technical concerns around security, integration, and rollout as the function comes online.
- Align with Customer Success on implementation readiness, success criteria, and expansion paths. Ensure clean handoffs from close to kickoff, maintaining continuity of the value narrative and outcomes.
- Position BLP against point tools and fragmented stacks (OCR, IDP, workflow automation, RPA, copilots) with an end-to-end, exceptions-first narrative. Anticipate and neutralize competitive plays with crisp differentiation and proof.
Requirements
- 5 to 10+ years of enterprise B2B SaaS selling experience, or equivalent complex solution sales, with a consistent track record of hitting and exceeding targets.
- Genuine self-starter: comfortable owning source to close without scaffolding, and energized by building the systems rather than inheriting them.
- Proven ability to run insight-led enterprise sales cycles. You can respectfully push back, quantify impact, and mobilize buying committees.
- Strong executive presence with CFOs, CIOs, and Heads of Shared Services, and comfort navigating enterprise procurement.
- Ability to manage complex, multi-threaded deals: mutual action plans, MEDDICC-style qualification, forecasting discipline.
- Strong collaboration with pre-sales and post-sales teams. You sell what can be delivered.
- Strong plus ERP or SAP exposure (S/4, ECC, Public or Private Cloud), or selling into finance, procurement, and shared services transformations.
- Experience selling automation platforms and winning against incumbents.
- Experience with global enterprise rollouts and multi-country stakeholders.
