Purpose of the position:
Own Talentnet Academy’s commercial growth agenda, translating market opportunities and client needs into sustainable revenue, strategic client relationships and scalable routes to market. The role is accountable for commercial strategy, go-to-market, business development, key-account growth, partnerships, pipeline and revenue performance.
The Head of Commercial leads client discovery and commercial negotiations, working closely with the Head of Solutions to shape commercially relevant solutions and with the Head of Service Excellence & Operations to confirm delivery feasibility and readiness. Commercial retains ownership of the client relationship, pipeline, commercial terms and revenue, while solution architecture remains accountable to Solutions and delivery execution remains accountable to Service Excellence & Operations.

- Develop go-to-market strategies for priority solution areas, customer segments and channels in partnership with Solutions and Marketing.
- Own revenue planning, pipeline coverage, forecasting and commercial performance visibility; identify risks early and drive recovery actions.
- Lead pricing strategy, commercial models, deal structures and negotiation principles to support growth, competitiveness and sustainable margin.
2. Drive Business Development & Strategic Account Growth:
- Build and convert a healthy pipeline of new corporate clients, with focus on strategic enterprise accounts and priority market segments.
- Develop trusted relationships with CEOs, CHROs, L&D leaders and other senior business stakeholders, positioning TAC as a capability and business-transformation partner.
- Define key-account strategies for priority clients, identifying renewal, cross-sell and expansion opportunities across TAC offerings and the broader Talentnet ecosystem.
- Personally lead high-value, strategic or complex opportunities where senior commercial leadership materially improves win probability or account growth.
3. Lead Consultative & Solution Selling:
- Lead client discovery to understand business context, capability gaps, decision criteria, budget, stakeholders and intended outcomes beyond the stated training request.
- Partner with the Head of Solutions on solution qualification, architecture and proposal development; ensure commercial requirements and client context are translated clearly into the solution brief.
- Own proposal strategy, client presentation, commercial positioning and negotiation, bringing in Solutions or Service Excellence & Operations where specialist input is required.
- Ensure disciplined handover of won opportunities to Solutions and Service Excellence & Operations, including scope, commitments, commercial assumptions, client expectations and success criteria
4. Build Partnerships & Commercial Ecosystem:
- Own commercial relationships with strategic partners across the Talentnet ecosystem and external learning, technology, university and professional networks.
- Develop new partnerships that expand market access, strengthen TAC offerings, generate qualified opportunities or create differentiated routes to market.
- Define the commercial model, roles, economics and governance for priority partnerships; track their contribution to pipeline, revenue, brand reach or capability access.
- Ensure partnership opportunities are integrated into TAC go-to-market plans rather than managed as stand-alone activities.
5. Drive Sales Excellence & Revenue Governance:
- Establish and continuously improve TAC sales process, opportunity stages, qualification criteria, proposal governance and commercial approval disciplines.
- Own CRM hygiene, sales dashboards, forecast accuracy, pipeline reviews, win/loss analysis and revenue operating cadence.
- Define sales KPIs and leading indicators that drive the right commercial behaviors, including pipeline quality, conversion, sales cycle, client growth and forecast reliability.
- Use commercial data and market insights to identify performance gaps, improve conversion and guide resource prioritization.
6. Lead Commercial Capability & One-Team Growth:
- Lead, coach and develop the Commercial team, setting clear expectations for performance, consultative selling, account ownership and professional standards.
- Build reusable sales assets, account-planning approaches, proposal practices and commercial playbooks that improve speed, quality and consistency.
- Promote strong collaboration across Commercial, Solutions and Service Excellence & Operations as one integrated client-delivery system, with clear accountability boundaries.
- Contribute actively to TAC strategy, portfolio priorities and growth choices by bringing market, client and competitive insight into leadership decisions.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Economics, Human Resources or a related discipline; a postgraduate business qualification is an advantage.
- Typically 10–12+ years of progressive B2B sales, business development or commercial leadership experience, including significant accountability for enterprise revenue growth and strategic client relationships.
- Proven track record of selling complex, high-value solutions or professional services to large corporations, with demonstrated success managing long and multi-stakeholder sales cycles.
- Strong experience in consultative or solution selling: diagnosing business needs, shaping value propositions, leading proposals, negotiating commercial terms and closing complex deals.
- Demonstrated capability in commercial strategy, go-to-market planning, pipeline management, forecasting, pricing and revenue governance; strong CRM and sales-discipline experience expected.
- Experience managing and growing strategic accounts, including senior stakeholder relationships and renewal, cross-sell or expansion opportunities.
- Experience building or managing partnerships, channels or ecosystem relationships that contribute to market access, revenue or differentiated offerings.
- Proven people-leadership experience, including coaching sales or business-development teams and raising commercial standards and performance.
- Experience in HR consulting, corporate learning, management consulting, technology-enabled learning or another professional-services environment is strongly preferred.
