Job description

The Senior SAP Sales Professional is a seasoned, outcomes-driven sales leader responsible for owning and winning competitive SAP opportunities from Phase 0 through contract execution. This individual serves as the primary commercial and solutioning anchor across the full Accenture organization — bridging Sales, Delivery, Technology, Industry, and Alliance teams — while cultivating a high-impact external SAP ecosystem. The role demands equal parts strategic vision, executive influence, and competitive tenacity to craft differentiated solutions that exceed client business case expectations.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead client discovery and executive alignment sessions to define the business case, articulate ROI, and position Accenture's SAP capabilities ahead of the competition

• Translate complex business challenges into compelling SAP-enabled transformation narratives tied to measurable outcomes

• Ensure the proposed solution and commercial construct exceed the client's stated business case and strategic objectives

Cross-Organizational Collaboration

• Mobilize and orchestrate resources across the full Accenture organization — including MU/Geographic sales, GCP/GTP delivery, Finance, Legal, and Alliances — to assemble the most competitive pursuit team

• Act as the connective tissue between sales, presales, and delivery functions to maintain deal momentum and solution integrity throughout the pursuit

Ecosystem & Alliance Management

• Cultivate and leverage relationships with SAP and key ecosystem partners (hyperscalers, AI Partners, and system integrators) to strengthen deal positioning and access co-sell resources

• Engage SAP account executives and regional leaders to align on pipeline, co-investment strategies, and joint go-to-market plays

• Drive partner-sourced leads and joint proposal collaboration to enhance win probability

Client Value & Outcome Delivery

• Anchor every pursuit in measurable client outcomes — operational efficiency, revenue growth, risk reduction — rather than product or technology features

• Champion a value-selling methodology throughout the organization and embed business case rigor into every proposal stage

Travel may be required for this role. The amount of travel will vary from 25% to 100% depending on business need and client requirements.

Required

• Experience within a Tier 1 systems integrator or consulting firm

• Familiarity with pursuit methodologies, deal governance, and commercial frameworks

• Established relationships within the SAP ecosystem (SAP AEs, hyperscaler alliance teams, and AI partners)
