Strategic account executive, financial services (UK)

Company: present of AI
Apply for the Strategic account executive, financial services (UK)
Location: London
Job Description:

This is a senior, quota-carrying sales role focused on large UK financial services firms. A strong candidate has a long record of closing complex enterprise software deals, knows how banks, insurers and asset managers buy, and can talk comfortably with technology and operations leaders. The role also rewards people who open new accounts themselves rather than waiting for leads.

How it fits the AI era

AI agents are a new kind of product for buyers to understand, so the seller has to explain clearly what they do and tie them to real business results. Regulated firms worry about security, data and oversight, so careful answers matter more than flashy demos. Trust, judgment, and relationships with senior decision makers stay human.

How it builds AI experience

The role offers close exposure to how large financial firms evaluate and roll out AI agents grounded in their own data. Someone could build relevant experience by learning how the platform handles compliance and governance questions, and by following how UK regulators view AI in finance. Sitting in on technical reviews and rollout planning would add practical depth.

Worth showing

  • Winning new accounts from scratch
  • Talking with CIOs and CTOs
  • Handling security and compliance reviews
  • Knowledge of UK financial regulation
