Role Summary

The Industry Segment Leader, Manufacturing owns NTT DATA Thailand's go-to-market strategy, client relationships, and revenue growth within the Manufacturing and Automotive sector. This is a segment leadership role — not an individual-contributor sales role — combining P&L accountability, industry-specific solution positioning, and direct people leadership of a segment sales team. The successful candidate will act as both strategist and player-coach: setting segment direction while staying close enough to key accounts to shape and close strategic deals.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and execute the go-to-market strategy for the Manufacturing/Automotive segment, aligned to NTT DATA's broader industry and services strategy
• Carry segment-level revenue and P&L accountability, including pipeline forecasting, quota planning, and margin performance
• Build and lead a team of segment sales professionals — coaching, performance management, and capability development
• Develop and maintain C-level relationships with manufacturing clients, positioning NTT DATA's systems integration, managed services, and digital transformation offerings
• Identify and shape large, complex deals spanning IT services, cloud, data, and industry-specific solutions (e.g., smart manufacturing, supply chain digitization, Industry 4.0)
• Partner with presales, solution architecture, and delivery teams to ensure proposals are commercially and technically credible
• Drive co-selling motions with technology partners (hyperscalers, ISVs) relevant to the manufacturing vertical
• Represent NTT DATA at industry events, forums, and client engagements to build segment brand and thought leadership
• Report segment performance, pipeline health, and market intelligence to senior leadership
  
  

Required Qualifications

• 10+ years in enterprise technology sales or business development, with demonstrated segment/industry leadership — not solely individual account execution
• Proven experience selling into manufacturing or automotive clients in Thailand, ideally with existing C-level relationships in the sector
• Track record of P&L ownership and team leadership (player-coach experience strongly preferred)
• Strong understanding of IT services, systems integration, managed services, or outsourcing sales motions (project-based/managed services background preferred over pure software license sales)
• Experience shaping and closing complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals
• Fluent Thai and strong business English
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Existing network within Thailand's manufacturing/automotive industry (OEMs, Tier 1/2 suppliers, industrial groups)
• Familiarity with Industry 4.0, smart manufacturing, or supply chain digitization concepts
• Experience co-selling with hyperscalers (AWS, Azure, GCP) or major ISVs
• Prior experience at a global SI or consulting firm (Accenture, Wipro, Infosys, TCS, DXC, or similar)
