Enterprise Cloud Account Executive - Tableau

Tableau Software, a Salesforce company, is the market leader in BI and Data Analytics, recognised as the number one platform for nine consecutive years in the Gartner Magic Quadrant. We have been on an incredible journey — and we are only just beginning! We are on a mission to help our customers see and understand their data, and have been helping companies across the globe to do just that. The beauty of Tableau is that it can be used by anyone and can benefit everyone — whether that is helping organisations to improve business efficiency, identify new revenue opportunities, or drive meaningful change across their industry.

We hire based on our values: trust, respect, partnership, integrity, simplicity, and delighting our customers. As we continue to grow, we’re looking for dedicated Enterprise Account Executives to join our UKI Sales team selling Tableau solutions into our larger Enterprise level accounts. These accounts are at different stages of their digital transformation journey, which offers a fantastic opportunity to make an impact in this space.

What you will be doing:

• Applying strong prospecting skills to develop business within new and existing accounts.
• Defining and crafting account plans to map out business opportunities and build a healthy, scalable pipeline.
• Acting as a trusted advisor to your customers, developing strong relationships across stakeholders at all levels — from key influencers through to C-suite executives.
• Leading value‑driven sales conversations that clearly communicate the impact and return on investment our solutions deliver.
• Managing your sales cycle effectively for longer, more complex engagements in Enterprise.
• Partnering with a virtual internal team to build strategic plans tailored to each account, bringing in the right people at the right time.
• Collaborating with your Salesforce counterparts to identify and close joint solution sales opportunities across your portfolio.

What you will bring:

• A proven track record of quota‑carrying sales experience, successfully selling software or SaaS solutions across organisations of varying size and complexity.
• Experience managing both transactional and multi‑year licence agreements is desirable.
• An understanding of the analytics and BI industry is a plus.
• You are inquisitive and always looking to learn and discover what your customers need; you keep track of market trends and are committed to continuously developing your own skills.
• You are able to build trust with any stakeholder, from end users and department heads to C‑level executives, adapting your style to suit the audience and the deal.
• You are consistently motivated to meet and exceed your targets, as reflected in your track record of quota attainment across both new and existing business.
• You have highly developed prospecting, planning, and closing skills — whether managing a high volume of deals or a focused set of strategic accounts.
• You take initiative and are proactive in identifying and pursuing new opportunities, bringing energy and focus to both your pipeline and your customer relationships.
• Networking and relationship building come naturally to you. You know what to say, and when to say it.
• You understand the importance of winning as a team. Partnering with internal and external resources is crucial, and you know how to engage and empower colleagues and partners to maximise success.
• Data integrity and accurate forecasting are important to us, and you hold yourself to a high standard in both.
