Lead extended team in solutioning and scoping, and proposal development
Execute value-based selling methodology for Impact, Implementation Services, and Training opportunities.
You will demonstrate a passion for the job and lead by example by putting Databricks and our customers first to achieve the sales and delivery mission.
You will work with the sales counterpart and engage early in the sales process to understand our customer's needs, their business, how success is defined, and ensure that we are exceeding expectations in delivery and developing valued solutions.
Identify opportunities for new services by understanding and addressing potential new use-cases and the ability to articulate the business value in the upsell, or extension of services.
You will perform as the SAE/EM in the assigned area and for meeting/exceeding Professional Services and Training bookings and revenue targets.
Consult with clients to understand and analyze engagement scope, requirements, time, cost and benefits. Responsible for estimating, scoping and developing the statement of work documents as necessary.
Help resolve delivery challenges, address resource contentions, scoping issues and manage expectations.

What we look for:

Experience operating in or alongside a Professional Services organisation, with strong commercial acumen and exposure to services sales, delivery, or program leadership.
Extensive experience in customer-facing roles that require a mix of influencing, validating, negotiating, understanding and execution.
Comfort operating with incomplete information and evolving customer requirements.
Strong judgement in prioritisation, trade-offs, and escalation.
Data and AI domain experience working with customers to realise business value through to production implementations.
Excellent customer-facing skills including working with Executives and other team members.
Experience articulating the value-based selling mode
Experience identifying customer needs and implementing solutions.
Service delivery and program management skills with the ability to summarize customer success outcomes into well-structured program plans.
