Overview

This role is part of the Journey to Cognitive Cloud (J2CC) team, a fast-moving, cross-functional group driving the shift of Blue Yonder customers from legacy, non-cognitive solutions to modern cognitive SaaS platforms. The team partners closely with customers to spark interest, prove value, secure buy-in, and deliver end-to-end migrations through go-live. In doing so, the J2CC team transforms legacy maintenance revenue into a scalable SaaS foundation while creating immediate technical and business impact.

Scope

The TCO/Business Value Specialist is a key contributor to Blue Yonder's J2CC go-to-market motion, responsible for developing compelling business cases and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) analyses that accelerate customer migration and expansion decisions.

• Build rigorous, data-driven TCO models that compare on-premise, hybrid, and Blue Yonder cloud deployment scenarios across licensing, infrastructure, implementation, and operational costs

• Partner with Sales, Pre-Sales, and Customer Success teams to tailor value narratives for targeted accounts
• Maintain and continuously improve standardized TCO frameworks, benchmarks, and industry-specific value drivers
• Engage directly with customer finance, IT, and supply chain executives to validate assumptions and co-own the business case narrative
• Support executive presentations, RFP responses, and board-level justification packages
• Collaborate with Sales, Services, Product and Marketing to incorporate new J2CC capabilities and cloud pricing models into value frameworks

• Customer-Centricity:Develops value cases that resonate with customer priorities
• Technical & Business Acumen:Integrates technology and financial insights to support migration decisions
• Value Creation:Builds robust models to demonstrate migration benefits
• Collaboration:Works closely with Strategic Migration specialist (SMS), Cognitive Value advisor (CVA), and Finance teams
• Integrity:Ensures accuracy and transparency in all analyses
• Agility:Responds quickly to changing data and customer requirements
• Trusted Advisory:Communicates complex concepts clearly and credibly

What we are looking for

• 10+ years' experience in technology cost analysis, financial modeling, or solution consulting
• At least 5 years' experience in Sales for a SaaS solution company
• Strong quantitative and analytical skills
• Experience supporting migration programs and commercial offers
• Ability to communicate complex value metrics to customers
• Bachelor's degree or coparable work experience
