How hard is the transition from delivery to sales? Possible exit opportunity to become an account executive and currently doing SAP implementation

Typically the exit is to some sort of sales engineer/solutions architect role in a sales org. Not too many people go straight from implementation to pure sales.

The role is for pure sales and an account executive position due to my industry experience

I'm actually doing a similar lateral, but to Financial Advisory/Investment Advisory Sales.

I'm good with clients and have been in client management/sales roles before EY though, so can't speak to your case

Do you find the work more rewarding or worthwhile in terms of compensation? I’ve been involved in RFPs and orals before but not to magnitude of a dedicated account exec

Hello there! I currently work in billing at a medical office. I got my Bachelors in Psychology a few years ago but I couldn’t find a position that seemed like a good option for me that was well paying and fulfilling. I tried working as a tech at an Applied Behavior Analysis clinic but it wasn’t a good fit. I’m hesitant to try case management or social work because I worry I won’t like it but I want to use my degree in Psychology. Does anyone have any ideas for me?
