The Opportunity

We’re looking for a Strategic Account Executive to join our team remotely in the United States. In this role, you will own and grow a focused portfolio of Planview’s largest and most complex accounts. You’ll build durable executive relationships, shape multi-year account strategies, create new demand, and bring together the right teams to deliver transformational outcomes for customers and meaningful, sustained growth for Planview.

What You’ll Do

• Own and grow a focused portfolio of strategic accounts, developing deep knowledge of each customer’s business, priorities, organization, and decision‑making landscape.
• Build and execute multi-year account strategies that connect customer priorities to Planview’s platform and Value Framework, creating a path to measurable customer value and durable growth.
• Serve as a trusted advisor to C‑suite executives—including CIOs, CFOs, and CTOs—as well as other senior decision‑makers; develop executive sponsors throughout the customer relationship.
• Create demand by uncovering whitespace, engaging new stakeholders, and identifying unmet needs and strategic initiatives rather than relying only on existing projects or formal RFPs.
• Lead complex enterprise sales cycles and close large, transformational, multi‑product and platform deals, as well as major renewals and expansion opportunities.
• Lead commercially sophisticated negotiations and structure substantial, multi‑year agreements that balance customer value with sustainable business outcomes.
• Address complex customer challenges and orchestrate internal and external contributors—including executive leadership, Product, Customer Support, Services, Legal, Finance, and partners—to shape solutions and deliver account outcomes.
• Maintain a clear view of account health, growth plans, risks, and sales forecasts; adapt account strategy and forecast opportunities accurately to support sustained expansion.
• Share insights from strategic customer relationships, market trends, and competitive positioning to influence Planview’s sales strategy and go‑to‑market direction; advise senior leadership on account strategy and market direction.
• Serve as a subject matter expert and mentor to the broader sales organization, sharing best practices in strategic account management and enterprise selling.

What You’ll Bring

• 8+ years of enterprise SaaS sales experience and a demonstrated record of materially growing strategic customer accounts over time—not only closing a single large deal.
• Experience owning a small portfolio of very large, complex accounts, including global organizations, with account depth beyond managing a broad enterprise territory.
• Strong executive‑level selling skills and a record of building credibility and durable relationships with C‑suite decision‑makers, particularly CIOs, CFOs, and CTOs.
• Success developing and executing multi‑year account strategies tied to customer priorities and long‑term growth.
• A consultative, value‑based selling approach, including the ability to position solutions around customer outcomes and ROI and apply Planview’s Value Framework.
• A track record of generating demand and finding whitespace by uncovering new business needs, stakeholders, and opportunities—not simply responding to existing projects or RFPs.
• Success closing large, transformational deals involving multiple products or a platform solution, and leading high‑value contract negotiations and multi‑year partnership agreements.
• Strong cross‑functional leadership, influence, and judgment to align executives, Product, Customer Support, Services, Legal, Finance, and partners around customer outcomes.
• The ability to assess account health, identify risks and growth opportunities, and produce accurate forecasts.
• Deep experience with Salesforce.com and modern sales technology.
• Excellent executive presence, communication, and presentation skills, with the ability to engage and influence senior stakeholders at all levels.
• A bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience; an MBA is a plus.

Whether you have some, or all of these, we want to hear from you if you believe your background and experience might be a fit!
