About the job
Our client stands for IT and AI excellence as well as first-class development opportunities. Through challenging projects, teamwork, and top training, one constantly learns from each other here.
The focus is on future-proof, AI-enabled IT solutions and innovative strategies that ensure customer success. This success is driven by dedicated people who design software with enthusiasm. Work is carried out in a motivating, collegial environment that is enjoyable and where well-being is highly valued.
Market positioning of the SAP portfolio: You manage the commercial marketing of our services around SAP consulting, system integration, as well as downstream application management (AMS) and successfully establish our offering with target customers.
Focus on modern SAP landscapes: Your professional focus includes migration projects towards S/4HANA, cloud-based SAP architectures, the Business Technology Platform (BTP) including the Integration Suite, as well as complementary platform technologies, which you confidently argue on the customer side.
Growth through acquisition and relationship management: You drive the targeted build-up of new market shares through cold acquisition and at the same time ensure that existing mandates are developed in a partnership-based and long-term manner.
Targeted account development: Based on customer-oriented sales strategies, you identify untapped cross- and upselling opportunities and thus make a measurable contribution to our growth strategy.
Interdisciplinary bid management: Together with experts from consulting, business development, and operational units, you pool professional know-how to precisely analyse customer requirements and transform them into customised, competitive offers.
Comprehensive lead-to-contract support: You independently manage the entire sales cycle from lead generation through negotiation to the final signature appointment and act throughout as the strategic main contact.
