RVP, Sales - Central and West US and Canada

About the role

CONTEXT: Our Americas Sales team is dedicated to driving new business and expansion across Ivalua's AI-native Source-to-Pay (S2P) platform with large, complex enterprise customers. With strong growth across US Central, US West and Canada and an expanding portfolio of strategic accounts, the regional team needs to keep growing to satisfy demanding C-level buyers and ambitious revenue targets. In this context of fast growth and continued innovation (including our AI-native IVA Studio), we are hiring a Regional Vice President (RVP) of Sales to lead and scale the sales organization across these territories. ROLE: Here at Ivalua, we are currently looking for a Regional Vice President, Sales - US Central, West and Canada . Reporting to the VP, Sales North America , you will own the go-to-market and revenue strategy for your region, leading a team of enterprise Account Executives and working in close partnership with Solution Consulting, Services, Customer Success, Marketing, Sales Operations, and SI Partners. You will be responsible for delivering new and expansion ARR, leading complex long-cycle enterprise deals (high six- and seven-figure), and positioning Ivalua's AI-native platform as a strategic lever for margin protection and supply chain resilience with C-suite stakeholders (CPO, CIO, CFO). WHAT YOU WILL DO WITH US Own and exceed regional ARR and growth targets by leading a team that consistently closes $400k+ average ARR deals and high six-/seven-figure enterprise contracts. Drive disciplined enterprise sales execution for 9-18-month, multi-stakeholder cycles, including rigorous qualification, accurate forecasting across at least two quarters, and strong engagement with CPOs, CIOs and SI Partners. Lead the transition from feature/function selling to value- and consumption-based selling, especially for AI-native use cases (e.g., automated intake, real-time contract risk mitigation, generative supplier negotiations, autonomous sourcing). Confidently support your team in executive-level discussions on AI data privacy, LLM security, and integration with backend ERPs (e.g., SAP S/4HANA, Oracle Fusion), ensuring Ivalua is seen as a safe, strategic AI layer over existing landscapes. Partner closely with Customer Success and Account Management to align bookings with value realization, driving adoption, expansion, and sophisticated/hybrid commercial constructs (subscription + usage/consumption-based tiers). Build a high-performing, collaborative culture that fits Ivalua's values: hiring and developing top enterprise sales talent, fostering strong cross-functional alignment (SC, Services, VE, CS, SAMs, Marketing, SalesOps), and "owning" the regional business in a matrixed environment.
