About Skillsoft
The buyers are enterprise learning, talent and HR leaders (the postings count 60% of the Fortune 1000 among its customers), and what Skillsoft's sellers put in front of them is the Percipio platform with its leadership, compliance and technology suites plus coaching, Codecademy for Enterprise and live tech training. North America is run as five markets: a North America Services Leader, a senior director seat, manages the Market Solutions Leaders who own each market's sale, value, expansion and renewal cycle, qualifies with MEDDPICC and shares regional targets with the North America VP of Sales. Below that, three individual seats are open: an Enterprise Growth Account Executive on Western time who works an existing enterprise territory for whitespace and travels 30 to 50% of the time, a Senior Solutions Partner who runs discovery with buying committees across HR, learning, IT, security and the C-suite and builds the quantified business case, and a Customer Success Manager on Eastern time who owns onboarding, adoption and renewal for a portfolio of strategic accounts. Two more senior director seats are building a new commercial function that folds pricing, deal desk, contract negotiation and RFP support into one team, the renewals operations lead governing price and discount on about $250M of enterprise ARR. Six of the seven sales openings are remote in the US; the seventh is a senior CSM in Australia expected to carry 30 or more enterprise customers and a book of up to $7m.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
