• Act as a trusted advisor during high-stakes executive forums, synthesizing complex insights into concise, decision-ready messaging.

• Represent the Executive Engagements function in person at key APAC events, providing real‑time executive support, coordinating CXO interactions, and ensuring alignment with strategic messaging and sales objectives.

Industrial Software & Industry Insights

• Leverage insights from top APAC customers to inform executive engagement strategies, ensuring alignment with the Key Customer Initiative’s focus on industrial software adoption.

• Demonstrate strong fluency in industrial software concepts—such as digital manufacturing, operations optimization, and connected supply chain—to effectively engage with technical and non-technical senior stakeholders.

• Partner closely with industry, product, and technical teams to ensure executive engagements reflect modern software-enabled transformation trends.

• Translate customer voice into strategic recommendations, shortening the learning curve for executives and elevating APAC-specific industry intelligence.

Knowledge, Skills, & Experience Required

• Executive Communication Mastery: Proven ability to craft high-impact executive narratives, briefing documents, and CXO-ready communications that drive clarity, alignment, and informed decision-making.

• CXO & Board-Level Engagement: Demonstrated experience engaging senior executives, influencing leadership consensus, and operating effectively in high-stakes, high-visibility forums.

• Industrial Software Fluency: Familiarity with industrial software ecosystems (e.g., manufacturing digitization, energy transition technologies, supply chain software platforms) and the ability to articulate their business impact across APAC markets.

• Customer Voice Integration: Experience synthesizing insights from top customer engagements to inform program strategy and executive messaging (aligned to the 374 Initiative).

• Multi-Bilingual: You must be professionally fluent in English and at least two other major Asian languages (e.g., Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, or another key language for the region). This is a mandatory requirement for building trust and authentic relationships with our diverse client base.
