About the Role

As an Account Executive, Enterprise, you will build and grow relationships with global organizations as they transform for the AI era. Our clients are leaders in their industries, operating across markets worldwide, and we work with their C-suites and business leaders as well as the executives who run their AI, Product, Marketing, Design, and Data teams. The role operates on two fronts. First, you will help these enterprises build durable, organization-wide AI capability: the skills, processes, tools, and digital operating models their people need to work differently. On the second, you will advise senior leaders on the digital and AI innovation opportunities emerging in their industries, including how AI will reshape the products they build and the customer experiences they deliver.

This is transformation work. You will own a portfolio of client relationships and the pursuits within them, from the first conversation through discovery, solution shaping, proposal, and commitment, and you will stay close to the work once it begins. You will lead discovery with clients, form a view on where they stand and what they need, and work with our Strategy and delivery teams to shape engagements that deliver it. You follow developments in AI and digital technology closely and you can translate them into implications an executive will act on. You are comfortable leading conversations with executives, you can turn an ambiguous business problem into a structured point of view, and you hold a high standard for the quality of the work you put in front of a client.
