Sr. Business Consultant
The Team
Value—easy to describe with broad generalities but terribly difficult to quantify with hard measurements. And that is the task that Box Value Engineering (BVE) has taken on. Our team seeks to help its customers and prospects understand, measure, and ultimately optimize their Box investment.
Much like Box is redefining how people work together, Box Value Engineering seeks to transform how value is measured. We do not rely on conventional approaches from traditional vendors. We pursue a new, agile, disciplined path to support a cloud-first world. Our innovative approach, advanced tools and mathematical models have been enthusiastically embraced by our stakeholders. This year, we intend to expand the team to broaden and deepen our reach with our customers. It’s a demanding, yet highly rewarding environment - come join us!
The Role
This role is a senior business consultant that will interface directly with C-Suite and Director level contacts of strategic enterprise accounts to discover, document and create a business value pitch for the account. This person will work jointly with Box’s Sales team to craft the executive-level proposal for our largest, most strategic opportunities. In this role you will work cross-functionally with account execs, sales engineering, customer success, consulting, and marketing to establish a shared vision with our customers and help them achieve their strategic goals. The successful candidate must possess an inquisitive, disciplined mind, be able to hold in-depth value oriented conversations with CXOs, enterprise architects, and line-of-business users. Most important is a firm understanding of the impact that digital transformation has on an organization. Previous value engineering experience is not required.
