The opportunity
Adobe’s High Tech vertical is one of our fastest-growing enterprise segments. We’re looking for a sales leader to take it to the next stage — moving from a licensing-focused model to a solution-led approach built around AI and digital experience.
You’ll own Adobe’s most strategic relationships in an industry navigating a genuine technological shift. Your job is to arrive with perspective, challenge assumptions, and close complex deals that span functions, geographies, and executive layers — before clients know they need you.
Why we’re hiring
The team is built and the accounts are established. What this moment requires is a leader who can:
Drive the transition from software licensing to solution selling across a multi-product portfolio
Build and run a disciplined forecast and pipeline cadence
Develop programming that creates net-new pipeline and accelerates deals
Serve as a credible voice for the vertical, influencing product, partner, and marketing decisions
Own executive relationships across a significant portion of the book of business
The role
You’ll lead a multi-layered field team of 4 AVPs and an extended ecosystem of supporting resources. You’ll own GTM strategy and execution — coordinating across product, partner, and go-to-market functions to drive pipeline and revenue.
The portfolio spans Adobe Experience Cloud, Firefly generative AI, Content Supply Chain, Brand Intelligence, and emerging agentic platforms. You’ll be selling to C-suite buyers across Marketing, Technology, and Operations.
What you’ll do
Lead every senior conversation with a clear point of view — not just a product pitch
Own vertical strategy, pipeline, forecasting, and revenue growth
Close complex, multi-stakeholder deals spanning technical, creative, and executive decision-makers
Build and develop a high-performing enterprise sales team
Bring client and market intelligence back into product and GTM planning
Run a disciplined sales operation: precise forecasting, QBR leadership, territory planning
What we’re looking for
10–15+ years in enterprise sales, management consulting, or strategic roles with High Tech experience
A track record of shaping how clients think — not just responding to their stated needs
Demonstrated ability to build and develop strong sales talent
Strong analytical and forecasting discipline; comfortable presenting at all levels
Engineering background preferred; MBA or equivalent a plus
Experience in technical sales, product strategy, or consulting is a differentiator
Leadership profile
Challenges assumptions — leads with a point of view, constructively provocative
Intellectually curious — asks deeper questions, energized by complexity
Builds coalitions — knows the best answers come from bringing the right people together
Results-driven — accountable to number and narrative, closes with precision
Comfortable with ambiguity — energized by problems without established answers
Authentic leader — builds culture around a mission, connects individual purpose to the larger vision
About Adobe
Adobe’s mission is to change the world through digital experiences. Today, that mission is being shaped by AI — and the High Tech companies we partner with are on the same journey. The best conversations in this space are exploratory and collaborative, between people willing to challenge each other’s assumptions in pursuit of something that hasn’t been built yet.
The right person for this role won’t wait for permission to have that conversation. They’ll start it.
