Responsibilities

• Manage Small and Medium Business (SMB) organisations across a range of industries — particularly within the Malaysia territory — to understand their challenges and goals through focused discovery sessions and workshops.

• Play a pivotal role in aligning innovative strategies to technology solutions within complex accounts, partnering with clients and collaborating with internal team members to drive consensus on multi-product technology solutions across the various Salesforce product lines.

In some instances, help clients develop new decision frameworks and governance processes that continue to deliver value far beyond a particular engagement.

• Assist the customer, Account Executive and Professional Services team with the discovery, analysis and ultimately the recommendation of strategic solutions — delivering transformational pitches based on live product demonstrations.

• Build and present customised solutions and demonstrations focused on Salesforce products to multiple customer personas, showing how Salesforce will accelerate their business strategies and provide a clear path to value.

• Ability to travel based on territory alignment and region (including within Malaysia).
