Here at Appian, our values of Intensity and Excellence define who we are. We set high standards and live up to them, ensuring everything we do is done with care and quality. We approach every challenge with ambition and commitment, holding ourselves and each other accountable to achieve the best results. When you join Appian, you’ll be part of a passionate team dedicated to accomplishing hard things together.
We are looking for an Enterprise Account Executive to focus strictly on our UKI Public Sector business.
What you’ll be doing:
- Drive Public Sector Value: Use company-wide success and use cases as a blueprint, adding your own ideas and vertical knowledge to target central government bodies.
- Qualify & Solve: Determine if the customer has a valid business need for the Appian platform and Customer Success services. Apply structured thinking and logical problem-solving to complex challenges.
- Engage C-Level: Discuss business drivers and value with relevant decision-makers, including at the CxO level.
- Cultivate Relationships: Build and strengthen your business relationship with existing accounts across all hierarchies; follow up to ensure all their post‑sales needs are being met.
- Strategic Planning: Recommend marketing strategies and identify Appian customer references that can be utilized when reference selling.
- Pipeline Management: Provide accurate status information, including forecast and pipeline reporting.
What we need to see:
- Company Environment: Preference for candidates from a reasonable‑sized software company rather than a small startup; you must be able to handle the complexity, process, and environment of a larger enterprise.
- Product Knowledge: Background in selling enterprise applications.
- Sector Awareness: While deep Public Sector experience is not strictly essential, some exposure or awareness is highly helpful.
- Core Traits: Exceptional drive, grit, and perseverance, combined with high energy and an entrepreneurial spirit.
- Communication: Ability to express yourself succinctly and clearly, both verbally and on paper.
- Executive Presence: Experience influencing Digital Transformation, Customer Services, and Customer Experience initiatives at the CxO level and with consulting partners.
- Sales Acumen: A strong understanding of the sales process and go-to-market strategies, including account segmentation.
- Travel: Ability to travel within the assigned region, working closely with managers and SI partners, with occasional travel outside of the region required.
