EY’s Sales & Strategic Pursuits (S&SP) function unites sales leadership, sector insight, technology expertise, and solution depth to drive market‑leading growth. As EY’s growth catalyst, S&SP shapes and executes integrated go‑to‑market strategies across priority accounts, industry sectors, and strategic alliances—delivering differentiated value through a deeply client‑centric culture.

As a Databricks Alliance Sales Executive, you will operate at the front edge of growth for one of EY’s fastest‑growing alliance relationships. This is a true sales hunter role—focused on originating net‑new opportunities, building pipeline, and closing revenue through deep partnership with Databricks and direct engagement with Financial Services clients.

You will be a market‑facing, quota‑carrying executive seller with deep expertise across the Databricks platform and depth in the industrial products, automobile & defense, oil & gas and P&U spaces. You will proactively create demand, not respond to it—identifying whitespace opportunities, shaping transformative conversations, and positioning Databricks-powered EY solutions that address the most complex challenges facing the financial services industry.

You will also be expected to embed AI‑driven thinking and tools into every aspect of your sales role—how you prospect, identify patterns, qualify opportunities, orchestrate pursuits, influence buyers, and accelerate time‑to‑close—serving as a model for modern, AI‑enabled enterprise selling at EY.
