Benefits
Benefits are one of the most consequential things an employer offers and one of the hardest to get right. WEX Professional Services ensures our customers realize the full value of the WEX solution: launching well, adopting fully, and continuing to get more out of the platform as their programs and populations change.
This role owns the commercial engine behind that ambition: pipeline, deal construction, pricing discipline, forecast integrity, and the partnership with Sales, Account Management, and Delivery that puts the right services in front of the right customers at the right moment in their journey.
This is a quota-carrying, player-coach role in a highly matrixed environment. You will be a strategic problem solver with outstanding strategic, enterprise, commercial, and cross-functional skills, bringing high energy and real command of commercial management. You will personally co-lead the largest and most complex pursuits, build the commercial rigor and cadence the business runs on, and position Professional Services as the partner that helps employers, health plans, and administrators design, implement, and optimize their benefits programs, including the commercial strategy for how those services reach customers across segments and channels. You will partner with client executives on a regular basis and maintain positive relationships with internal peers across Delivery, Sales, Account Management, Product, Technology, Finance, and Operations to ensure customer needs are met seamlessly from the initial pitch through successful implementation and beyond.
Commercial Results & Customer Outcomes: Exceed Professional Services growth and bookings targets while delivering high customer satisfaction on the engagements you and your team sells. Own the plan to close any gap between committed pipeline and target, including the specific pursuits, timing, and actions that close it.
Forecast & Pipeline Discipline: Create and conduct a rigorous forecast and pipeline cadence, maintain data hygiene, early risk calls, and the commentary leadership relies on to run the business. Surface forecast changes early with a recommendation attached. Report clearly on sales activity and forecasts to senior management. Mentor team on strategies to drive closings.
Deal Construction & Commercial Viability: Lead strategy, pricing, and structuring of services engagements in partnership with Delivery, Operations, Deal Desk, and RevOps. Bring command of statement of work mechanics, engagement risk assessment, and margin preservation. Ensure engagements are priced to their economics and structured with clear scope, assumptions, and commercial terms.
Delivery Partnership: Partner as a trusted peer with Delivery leadership so that engagements are realistically scoped, properly staffed, and commercially viable before they are signed. Collaborate to bridge the gap between pre-sales vision and successful implementation, safeguarding both project margins and customer success.
Sales & Account Management Partnership: Serve as the commercial front door to ProServ for Sales and Growth leaders. Build a working cadence with those leaders and teams so that services are positioned early in pursuits.
Segmentation & Channel Strategy: Craft the commercial strategy for how services are positioned, priced, and sold across customer segments and routes to market, including direct employer relationships and customers who come to WEX through partners. Define which services matter most in each segment, where they attach in the customer journey, and how the offer and pricing should differ across them.
Executive Customer Engagement / Consulting: Personally lead value and economics conversations with client executives at the largest strategic accounts, and serve as executive sponsor on key engagements. Stay active in the field, including customer-site travel where the relationship warrants it.
Team Leadership & Development: Mentor and develop the services sales team, including recruiting, hiring, training, pipeline management, opportunity management, deal reviews, performance management, and career planning. Lead the team through WEX's technology and AI journey by demonstrating adoption of the tools yourself and promoting innovation in how the team sells.
Enterprise Contribution: Operate as an enterprise leader beyond the services number. Anticipate commercial risk and opportunity early, connect services performance to the broader Health & Benefits vision and strategy, and contribute as a peer to cross-functional leaders on the decisions that shape the customer experience.
