Strategic Account Executive

We're looking for a Strategic Account Executive to sell PowerPlan's AI-powered tax and accounting software to the office of the CFO at some of the world's largest asset-intensive companies — helping them generate more cash, mitigate compliance risk, and build a culture of cost management. You'll own the full enterprise sales cycle across a concentrated portfolio of 10 to 12 strategic accounts, with two parallel mandates: converting existing on-premise customers to SaaS, and winning net-new enterprise logos across Utilities, Oil and Gas, Telecom, Mining, and Rail.

This is a highly consultative, complex enterprise sale — typically multi-stakeholder, 18 months or longer, and seven figures. You'll apply MEDDICC discipline throughout the sales cycle, operate as a trusted advisor to C-level buyers, and build a territory presence that positions PowerPlan before a formal evaluation even begins. The right person teaches customers a better way of doing business, and closes deals that prove it.

Success will be measured by how full your qualified pipeline is within 90 days, and by how many seven-figure deals you close on a repeatable basis by the end of the year.

• →Build a structured, MEDDICC-informed territory plan and an active, qualified pipeline across your 10-12 strategic accounts within 90 days.
• →Own the commercial, technical, and change-management dimensions of converting existing on-premise customers to SaaS.
• →Run the full enterprise sales cycle — from qualification through close and handoff to Professional Services — using MEDDICC to qualify, forecast, and win.
• →Develop deep market intelligence in Utilities and other asset-intensive industries, knowing which accounts are likely to buy and why.
• →Build a trusted-advisor brand across your account portfolio, engaging economic buyers, champions, and skeptics alike.
• →Grow and leverage the existing customer base, turning satisfied customers into references, case studies, and expansion opportunities.

• Demonstrated track record closing complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise software deals — seven-figure transactions, 18-month-plus cycles, multiple deals per year.
• Mastery of value-based selling methodologies, including MEDDICC, applied with discipline rather than as a checklist.
• Proven experience selling complex software to the office of finance (CFO, Controller, VP Finance) and other C-level executives.
• Demonstrated success converting on-premise customers to SaaS or subscription models, including building the migration business case.
• A Utilities background is required; broader asset-intensive experience across Public Sector, Rail, or Oil and Gas is a plus.
• History of selling business software — EAM, ERP, Maximo, or equivalent enterprise financial applications.
• Skill navigating complex organizations, building consensus across economic buyers, champions, technical evaluators, and executive sponsors simultaneously.
• Self-motivated, resilient, and goal-oriented — you manage your territory like a business and don't take no personally.
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Finance, or a highly analytical field.

• A financial or engineering background strong enough to translate operational problems into a quantified business case.
