● Deliver compelling, data-driven insights to identify opportunities for improvement and enhance customer value realization to improve autonomous rates.
● Collaborate with internal teams and forge strong customer relationships to support growth, self-sufficiency, and long-term success.
● Own a portfolio of enterprise Accounts Payable customers as the primary post-sales relationship owner – driving adoption, value realization, retention, and renewal.
● Drive Business and Value Reviews with customers, representing value realization metrics, expansion opportunities, and scalability avenues.
● Ensure governance and compliance for steady-state account transitions, including systematic Knowledge Transfer from Implementation teams.

● Geo Experience - Experience in working across geos, adapting to different AP practices, compliance, and tax regimes globally, and comfortable operating across time zones.
● Hands-on knowledge of major ERP systems – SAP and Oracle at a minimum; familiarity with additional P2P / procurement platforms (Coupa, Ariba, etc.) strongly preferred.
● Demonstrated understanding of multi-vendor dynamics in P2P – how multiple ERPs, procurement suites, and AP automation tools coexist and interact in large enterprise landscapes.
● Experience with SaaS solutions- software configuration, and product demonstrations; familiarity with financial/accounting and CRM systems (e.g., Salesforce).
