Workforce Intelligence Sales Executive

Cornerstone is expanding our go-to-market team with Workforce Intelligence Sales Executive , focused on building and growing one of the company’s most strategic emerging businesses.

This role sits at the intersection of skills intelligence, workforce transformation, AI, learning, talent, and workforce planning . You will help organizations understand their workforce in fundamentally new ways: the skills they have today, the work and capabilities they will need tomorrow, how AI is changing roles and tasks, and how they can translate that intelligence into action.

We are looking for a builder, not simply a traditional seller .

You will work closely with Cornerstone account executives while taking meaningful ownership of the Workforce Intelligence sales motion.

• Develop champions and executive sponsorship across HR, Talent, Learning, Workforce Planning, Transformation, IT, Finance, and business leadership.

• Bring the market back into Cornerstone , sharing customer signals, emerging use cases, competitive intelligence, and product feedback to help strengthen our offering and go-to-market strategy.

• Help scale the Workforce Intelligence motion , sharing successful discovery approaches, customer stories, positioning, and sales plays with the broader Cornerstone sales organization.

• 5+ years of proven experience creating and closing complex enterprise software opportunities , rather than simply supporting opportunities generated by others.

• Experience selling emerging technology, transformation, data, AI, HR technology, workforce technology, or another solution where the customer problem and buying process are not always predefined.

• Strong consultative discovery skills and the ability to take an ambiguous executive challenge and turn it into a clear use case, value proposition, and path forward.
