Together, we solve real customer issues and fulfill our mission of connecting teams to real-time opportunities and elevate work to the outcomes that matter.
We’re building an inclusive workplace that represents the real, everyday people we support around the world. From how we build our teams to who sits in the boardroom, we hope you can see yourself at PagerDuty.
Why We Need You
PagerDuty continues to launch new solutions that are a critical part of our future growth, and their success is a top priority for our business. New solutions like our Customer Service offering require domain knowledge, fast learning and focus to ensure the opportunity is maximized. This role will impact ARR growth of these new products by directly contributing in sales opportunities, identifying and sharing best practices and success stories, working with analysts and our powerful dataset to surface accounts with a high propensity to buy, and partnering with our Product teams to guide the direction of our roadmap.
How you contribute to our vision
- Selling: Engage directly with account teams and customers in key opportunities. This will initially require inserting yourself into opportunities and establishing value. Once value is established, as we’ve proven with other roles, internal demand will follow. The goal of engaging in opportunities is twofold: Positively impact the growth and close of the deal by leveraging your domain knowledge and experience to set the vision for how PagerDuty can bring value to the Customer Service business function. Learn: As with most new solutions there is learning that needs to happen. By engaging in deals you will learn first hand what works, what doesn’t, what resonates with customers and where there are gaps.
- Enablement: You will take those best practices and success stories and, working with our enablement team, use them to enable the broader sales team to be more effective at creating pipeline and closing Customer Service deals.
- Pipeline Generation through Data: This individual will work with our analytics team to proactively identify prospects where PagerDuty’s Customer Service solution is a strong fit so we can proactively market to them.
- Product Roadmap Influence: As someone on the front lines of opportunities with our Customer Service solution you will be well informed around where our solution is strong and where there is opportunity to close gaps and add more value for our customers. You’ll be part of a group that shares field feedback with our product teams to help define a short and long term roadmap that increases the success of our customers and PagerDuty.
