What We’re Looking For

We are looking for an established enterprise/new business sales professional with a strong track record of selling to senior executive audiences.

You will ideally bring:

  • A proven track record of consistently achieving or exceeding sales targets.
  • Significant experience winning new business rather than primarily managing existing accounts.
  • Strong experience selling directly to C-suite and senior executive stakeholders.
  • Experience operating within large, complex organisations, ideally multinational businesses.
  • European market experience, alongside strong UK exposure.
  • The ability to manage a territory independently and take genuine ownership of the sales cycle.
  • Strong commercial acumen and an understanding of how large organisations make decisions.
  • Experience navigating complex stakeholder groups and building relationships across an organisation.
  • Excellent presentation, communication and written skills.
  • The confidence and credibility to engage senior leaders as a trusted commercial partner.
  • Experience selling a consultative, solution-led, service-based or intangible proposition where trust and credibility are central to the buying decision.
  • Strong pipeline management and forecasting skills.
  • Experience using CRM systems; Salesforce experience would be advantageous.
  • A highly proactive, entrepreneurial and resilient approach to new business development.

Experience & Background

  • Ideally 10+ years’ experience in corporate/enterprise sales.
  • Demonstrable experience of closing new business and managing a territory through the full sales cycle.
  • Strong evidence of personal ownership of pitches, negotiations and deal closures.
  • A consistent record of revenue performance and commercial achievement.
  • Bachelor’s degree or equalivalent professional experience.
