Sr Business Development Manager, Cloud Economics Scale

Are you motivated by solving business challenges of organizations? Would you like to be part of a cross-functional team focused on guiding enterprises on their journey to the cloud? Do you have deep business acumen, strong analytical and communication skills, and the ability to break down, structure and solve complex problems?

Join our team and be at the forefront of cloud economics as a Sr. Business Development Manager. Ideally, you’re someone who has worked with enterprise customers and helped them benchmark, understand, and improve the business value that cloud technology can bring to their business. Now you’re looking to amplify this capability by building programs and initiatives to scale through stakeholders and to drive impact to a greater number of customers. You will be the Center of Excellence that enables and influences internal and external resources to improve their effectiveness and efficiencies. You will pilot new business value focused initiatives with customers by collaborating with cross-functional teams including Sales, Business Development, and Cloud Economics.

The ideal candidate is energized by ambiguity and uses strong business judgment to build new programs or initiatives with minimal guidance. You are customer-obsessed; you habitually work back from the customers’ needs and pain points in defining and prioritizing your work. You are comfortable with complex queries using SQL, analyzing and diving deep into data, and communicating clearly and concisely to senior leaders or customer executives. You measure success by outcome and continuously inspect both approach and output to incrementally raise the bar over time.
