Responsibilities

  • Partner with account executives and presales teams throughout complex enterprise sales cycles to establish a compelling, financially grounded business case.
  • Understand a customer's current-state processes, costs, operational challenges, strategic priorities, and desired outcomes.
  • Build customized ROI, TCO, payback, NPV, and value realization models that quantify the economic impact of proposed solutions.
  • Translate operational improvements—such as productivity gains, cost reduction, revenue growth, risk reduction, process efficiency, and automation—into financial outcomes.
  • Develop executive-ready business cases, value assessments, and presentations that help customers justify investment decisions.
  • Facilitate discovery sessions with business, finance, IT, and executive stakeholders to identify and validate value drivers.
  • Work with customers to define a baseline/current state, target future state, and measurable benefits associated with the transformation.
  • Quantify both hard-dollar benefits and strategic/operational benefits, clearly distinguishing between validated value and modeled assumptions.
  • Present findings and recommendations to senior executives, including CFO, CIO, COO, and business-unit leadership.
  • Help sales teams overcome budget objections by connecting technology capabilities to business outcomes and financial impact.
  • Support late-stage deal strategy by demonstrating economic differentiation versus competing approaches or maintaining the status quo.
  • Develop value-realization frameworks that allow customers to track whether projected benefits are actually achieved after implementation.
  • Continuously improve reusable ROI methodologies, financial models, benchmarks, calculators, and value-selling tools.

Qualifications

  • Experience in value engineering, business value consulting, presales, strategic consulting, management consulting, financial analysis, or enterprise technology.
  • Strong financial modeling and quantitative analysis skills.
  • Ability to understand complex technology and translate technical capabilities into business and financial outcomes.
  • Strong executive communication and presentation skills.
  • Comfortable working directly with customers during high-value enterprise sales cycles.
