The Role
Veeva QualityOne is expanding rapidly in Korea, and we are looking for a high-performing Account Partner (Sales) to lead new business growth across regulated manufacturing industries, including Cosmetics, Food & Beverage (F&B), and Specialty Chemicals.
This is a founding sales role for Veeva QualityOne Korea. You will own the end-to-end enterprise sales cycle—from prospecting target accounts to qualifying business urgency, engaging C-level executives, and closing initial deals to establish key reference customers. Working directly with the Director, QualityOne Korea, Solution Consulting, and Marketing teams, you will help shape and drive Veeva’s GTM strategy in the Korean market.
What You’ll Do
Own and exceed annual New ACV (Annual Contract Value) targets across Korean enterprise manufacturers in Cosmetics (Brand Owners & OEM/ODMs), F&B, and Specialty Chemicals.
Identify strategic initial entry points and build long-term account roadmaps to expand adoption across broader Quality Management (QMS) capabilities and supplier networks.
Execute an Account-Based Sales (ABS) motion across prioritized high-tier enterprise accounts, focusing on operational complexity to drive targeted engagement.
Lead value-based sales discovery to uncover key business drivers, demonstrate clear ROI to executive stakeholders, and confirm solution alignment.
Establish strategic partnerships with executive stakeholders across Quality, Operations, and IT, articulating the business value of a modern cloud platform in complex enterprise environments.
Partner closely with Marketing on targeted ABM campaigns and executive roundtables, and collaborate with Solution Consultants and Professional Services to ensure seamless customer onboarding and long-term success.
Maintain accurate pipeline hygiene, sales forecasting, and CRM tracking using Veeva internal tools.

A deeply rooted, active industry network and trusted advisor relationships with senior executive decision-makers (Heads of QA/Ops, VP of Supply Chain, CIOs) across Cosmetics, F&B, or Specialty Chemical manufacturers.
Strong challenger mindset and value-selling expertise, with the ability to engage C-level stakeholders, articulate clear business ROI, and win against entrenched legacy or in-house custom systems.
Self-starter attitude with proven resilience in driving market expansion within greenfield territories, converting low market awareness into a qualified pipeline.
Exceptional bilingual communication skills in Korean and English, with the ability to influence both local client executives and internal regional leadership teams.
Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience.
