The Role
As a Senior Account Partner, you will promote Veeva QualityOne solutions to help Food & Beverage, FMCG and Chemicals industries in ASEAN to support their digital transformation initiatives in Quality, Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Marketing, and R&D.
You will oversee the full sales cycle from lead identification to closing the deal and responsible for Customer Success all along the process. As the key business development representative for ASEAN, you will work closely with Marketing, Strategy, and Solution Consultants to define key actions to close new opportunities at new customers and expand our customer base.
You will also work closely with Veeva’s global sales team and account partners to support sales and customer success activity with global accounts who have a significant presence in ASEAN.

The ability to communicate clearly with clients and prospects is a must – particularly in the area of product capability and associated business value.
