Constant learning, skill growth, great benefits, and a team that wants you to grow and succeed. What you'll bring Bring your ability to independently understand enterprise and corporate customer ambitions in one of Africa's most dynamic economies, articulate how SAP's Business AI Platform (BAIP) accelerate those outcomes, and act as a trusted domain expert who drives AI-specific sales motions, builds a healthy pipeline, and delivers measurable customer value.
