You utilize prompt engineering to create personalized messaging and to gain insight for customer meetings. You leverage data-driven insights from AI tools to craft high-impact pitches for C-level executives.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Identify, prospect, and qualify new enterprise-level business and upsell opportunities within assigned territory
  • Coordinate and work with Coursera Business team (Customer Success, Solutions Engineering, Marketing, Product, Deal Desk, Legal, key executives) to ensure territory success; customer satisfaction, expansion and retention

  • Stay updated on industry trends, market dynamics, customer feedback and competitor activities; then relay and share any insights with your team!

  • We are looking for a highly motivated, over-achieving "hunter and closer" who flourishes in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • A minimum of 7+ years of closing experience in B2B Enterprise sales (SaaS experience preferred) or equivalent
