Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
Selling EPM cloud software into enterprise accounts sits at the intersection of SaaS and finance transformation, where subscription platforms are increasingly replacing legacy planning and consolidation tools. This role is notable for its focus on the “Office of the CFO,” a buyer persona that typically demands rigorous business cases, cross-functional alignment, and clear linkage to measurable outcomes. With APAC coverage, it also reflects how many SaaS GTM motions are organised regionally while serving multi-industry portfolios.
From a SaaS career perspective, the work builds durable enterprise-selling fundamentals: structured qualification (e.g., MEDDIC-style thinking), pipeline discipline, and navigating complex stakeholder maps through to close. Collaboration with BDRs and solution engineering mirrors modern SaaS revenue teams, where discovery quality, technical validation, and forecasting hygiene directly influence predictable ARR performance. Experience gained here tends to transfer well across adjacent categories such as ERP, FP&A, analytics, and other CFO-facing platforms.
This position best suits a sales professional who prefers consultative, multi-threaded deal cycles over transactional volume, and who is comfortable balancing inbound and outbound creation. It will appeal to someone who enjoys methodical execution across discovery, negotiation, and forecast cadence, and who wants regional exposure without relying on a single vertical niche.
