This role is available for remote working only in the United Arab Emirates. Role Summary This is a pure net-new business role: the mandate is to bring in new logos within an assigned territory or vertical. Success is measured on new bookings — pipeline generated, opportunities created, and deals closed with organizations that are not currently Cornerstone customers. The sales motion is two fold.Firstly, it draws on a consultative, technically embedded selling style, workingshoulder-to-shoulder with counterparts to scope, prototype, and de-risk the solution during the sales cycle itself. Second, it follows a more traditional SaaS sales motion. The goal is to walk into a signed deal with a working proof-of-concept and a shared understanding of scope. Key Responsibilities Consultative Discovery Technical Partnership Gain a deep understanding of a prospect's actual workflows and data before proposing a outcome orientated solution Partner with a technical counterpart early in the cycle to prototype or configure a working proof-of-concept against the prospect's real use case Treat the sales cycle as a joint scoping exercise with the prospect's own stakeholders: co-develop the solution design with their HR/IT team so that what gets sold is what actually gets built Feed field learnings back to Product and Solutions Engineering to highlight patterns across prospects about what's missing, what's confusing, or what unlocks a deal Bring a "builder" mindset to the sales process Own the handoff so that what Solutions Engineering/Implementation inherits is a well-scoped, de-risked project New Business Development Prospecting Identify, prospect, and qualify new enterprise-level opportunities within an assigned territory or vertical Build and manage a pipeline of net-new logos from self-sourced outbound efforts and marketing-generated leads Research target accounts to understand their current landscape and likely pain points Evangelize new use cases and approaches for skills intelligence within large target organizations that aren't yet Cornerstone customers Full-Cycle Sales Execution Own the complete sales cycle end-to-end: prospecting, discovery, solution positioning, demo, proposal, negotiation, and close Translate product functionality into concrete business value for HR and business stakeholders who are evaluating Cornerstone for the first time Take a consultative approach to diagnosing a prospect's talent strategy and proposing a tailored solution, not just selling against a feature list Consistently meet or exceed new-business quota and revenue targets Deal Support Technical Handoff Partner with Solutions Consulting / embedded technical resources from first discovery call through close Ensure the proof-of-concept or prototype built during the sales cycle carries forward directly into implementation, minimizing rework and re-scoping post-signature Collaborate with legal and deal desk to structure and finalize new-customer agreements Stay engaged through early implementation kickoff to confirm what was scoped in the sales cycle matches what gets delivered Profile Strong enterprise sales and complex deal leadership experience.
