We offer a SaaS platform with ready-to-go experience management (XM) solutions that are perfect for Mid-Market/Commercial businesses.

Our team works closely with clients to use these tools effectively, improving their customer and employee experiences.

In this role, you'll be key to guiding these companies in making the most out of our platform to achieve their goals and stand out in their industries.

Opportunity to influence the future of work by contributing to the transformation of customer and employee experience globally.


Things You’ll Do
Your focus will be on acquiring new business and selling the Qualtrics platform to Corporate and Mid-Market accounts, engaging with stakeholders from champions up to C-level executives.


You will consult with prospects and clients on their strategic business goals and develop account plans for a set list of target accounts, including power maps, demand generation, and closing strategies.


You will establish, manage, and nurture relationships between Qualtrics and senior executives at both client and prospect companies.

Internally, you'll strategise with customer success, solutions consultants, partners, and others on creating demand in accounts and driving senior engagement.


Maintaining a real-time understanding of Qualtrics' solutions and the competitive landscape will be crucial for crafting win-based proposals and pricing strategies.


Collaboration is key: you'll leverage support from your sales team, sales operations, legal, customer success, finance, and other departments to best serve your customers.

Technology/Software sales experience required.


5 to 7 years of experience in Mid-Market/Commercial sales;
Must have experience selling into Marketing and HR functions.


Strong track record in achieving and exceeding sales quotas.


Experience in building a qualified pipeline and identifying new opportunities.


Ability to be curious and ask questions to clients to determine opportunities for impact.


You engage with clients at all points of the sales cycle—from prospecting and acquiring clients, through demoing the Qualtrics product, to negotiating, closing, and beyond.


You have the agility to adapt, pivot, and change your approach based on the needs of your business.


You partner well with internal teams and bring together internal resources that enable successful closure of deals.


What You Should Know About This Team
