As a core Solution Consultant, you will join our presales team supporting some of our largest enterprise customers. You will be responsible for all aspects of the technical sales process by working directly with customers and collaborating with sales, domain specialists, business value consultants, product managers, customer success, and partners. A strong foundational understanding of FP&A or Financial Transformation, Supply Chain domain or Workforce planning will make you stand out to the Anaplan hiring team.

• You’ll work with decision-makers at leading enterprise organisations, influencing outcomes that impact thousands of employees and billions in revenue.
• You’ll be working on the cutting edge of innovation to bring to life our vision of AI-driven scenario planning and analysis across a connected enterprise.
