Specialised Account Executive- Workday Talent Suite

Drive the "Total Talent" Narrative: You will articulate a flawless vision where Workday Recruiting (Core) and Candidate Engagement (Cultivate) are supercharged by Paradox (Conversational AI/Scheduling) and HiredScore (Talent Orchestration/Prioritisation).

Diagnose & Prescribe: You must be able to evaluate a customer’s hiring landscape to deploy the right AI agents.

You will identify where to deploy Paradox for high-volume/hourly speed and candidate experience, and where to position HiredScore for professional roles, internal mobility, and recruiter efficiency.

Competitive Positioning: Evangelising Workday’s "Smart Mirror" approach—demonstrating how our AI layers on top of the system of record without crafting data silos or integration nightmares.

Demand Generation: Proactively generate, qualify, and manage a high-volume sales pipeline by leveraging market insights, cultivating executive-level prospect relationships, and driving revenue growth across target enterprise accounts.

Co-Selling Partnership: Work in lock-step with Core Account Executives to integrate AI solutions into broader platform transformation deals.

Complex Deal Management: Lead sophisticated sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders (CHROs, Heads of TA, CIOs, and AI Compliance Officers).

You will navigate data privacy concerns and explain the value of "Responsible AI."

Pipeline & Forecasting: Maintain a healthy pipeline of net-new opportunities within existing Workday accounts and new business targets, forecasting accurately in a high-growth environment.

5+ years of experience selling sophisticated SaaS/Cloud solutions to C-Level executives (CHRO, CIO, CTO).

5+ years Deep Domain Expertise: Proven experience in HR Technology, Talent Acquisition, or AI-driven recruiting software.

You must deeply understand the difference between an ATS, a CRM, and an AI Orchestration layer.

2+ years Platform Selling: Experience selling multi-product suites.

You know how to sell a "better together" story rather than just a standalone product.

Technical & competitive fluency: You can articulate why a "Unified Data Model" beats a "connector" approach.

You are comfortable discussing how AI integrates with core workflows to reduce "toggle tax" for recruiters.

Segment Agility: You possess the mental agility to shift between conversations about Frontline/Hourly hiring (speed-to-hire, text-to-apply, scheduling automation) and Corporate/Professional hiring (rediscovery, silver medalists, internal mobility).

Consultative Approach: You can guide a client through a "maturity model"—showing them how to move from manual recruiting to Agentic AI (Recruiting & Mobility Agents).

Resilience & Adaptability: You thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment where you are helping to advise demand generation strategies and define the market for dynamic AI solutions.

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote.

Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work.

We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role).

This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together.

Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
