About the role
Senior individual contributor on Cresta's Customer Strategy team, engaging at executive levels to translate AI into measurable enterprise value and drive AI-enabled contact center transformation across large strategic accounts.

- Represent Cresta at external events as a credible voice in AI and CX transformation
- Lead business value discovery, stakeholder alignment, and use-case scoping across complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise accounts
- Guide customers through operational readiness, change management, and deployment planning, including Center of Excellence models and governance structures
- Support pilot and Conversational Assessment design, goal-setting, and executive readouts
- Facilitate business case development as a collaborative exercise with the customer, rather than a Cresta-owned spreadsheet
- Partner with Sales to push deals toward full platform adoption where warranted, expanding beyond initial narrow use cases
- Advise on pricing strategy and business models for non-standard deal structures
- Own positioning and sale of professional services as part of a broader engagement strategy
- Serve as voice of the customer for Product, Marketing, and Partner teams
- Build repeatable playbooks, frameworks, and executive assets that scale the team's approach across the Enterprise segment
- Help Cresta stay ahead of AI trends and their implications for customers and our own GTM
