By representing the organisation at key industry events and launches, you will help position its platform as the preferred choice for forward-thinking enterprises. Success in this role hinges on your ability to foster deep connections with clients, anticipate market shifts in automation technology, and contribute valuable insights that enhance both sales effectiveness and overall client satisfaction.

  • Lead the go-to-market strategy for artificial intelligence transformation initiatives throughout Asia, ensuring successful execution and measurable results.
  • Build and manage a robust multi-million USD pipeline by identifying new business opportunities and nurturing relationships with key stakeholders.

  • Develop long-term partnerships with clients by providing ongoing support, guidance, and thought leadership in AI-driven transformation.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of sales processes by sharing insights gained from client interactions and market analysis.

Your enthusiasm for building new business aligns perfectly with the organisation’s growth ambitions; meanwhile your collaborative nature ensures productive partnerships both internally with technical teams and externally with clients. Dependability is one of your hallmarks: you consistently manage competing priorities while maintaining high standards. Above all else, your commitment to inclusivity helps foster a positive environment where everyone feels valued.

  • Demonstrated experience selling enterprise software-as-a-service solutions within artificial intelligence or customer experience technology sectors over 10–15 years.
  • Proven track record of successfully closing annual contract value deals exceeding USD 1 million with large-scale organisations.
  • Comprehensive understanding of agent assist technologies, AI orchestration platforms, workflow automation tools, and quality assurance automation systems.
  • Ability to effectively sell complex solutions across multiple Asian markets including Singapore, Japan, Korea, India, and Southeast Asia.
