What’s the Role?
We’re looking for a high-performing Enterprise Account Executive to join our London-based team. In this role, you’ll be responsible for driving new business and strategic growth within large enterprise organisations across the UK and EMEA. You’ll act as a trusted partner to senior stakeholders, guiding them through complex sales cycles and positioning our cutting-edge platform as a critical solution to their business needs.

The ideal candidate has a consistent track record of success selling enterprise software—preferably in Business Intelligence, Analytics, or Data platforms—and thrives in high-stakes, multi-threaded deal environments. This is a strategic role for someone who brings deep commercial acumen, strong cross-functional collaboration, and a passion for solving problems at scale.

What You’ll Do:

  • Own the full enterprise sales cycle—from strategic prospecting through negotiation and close

  • Navigate complex deal structures involving multiple stakeholders, legal, procurement, and cross-functional influencers

  • Develop and execute territory plans to grow market share within target enterprise accounts

  • Build deep relationships with decision-makers, from VP to C-level across business and IT functions

  • Partner with internal teams across Marketing, Product, and Customer Success to align on account strategy and drive long-term customer value

  • Deliver compelling, tailored product presentations and demos to executive and technical audiences

  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date pipeline data and forecasts in CRM tools (e.g., Salesforce)

  • Provide market and customer feedback to influence product development and go-to-market strategy

What You Bring:

  • 5–8+ years of enterprise software sales experience, with a strong record of quota attainment and large deal wins

  • Experience selling into enterprise organisations in the UK and/or EMEA markets

  • Strong familiarity with the Business Intelligence, Analytics, or Data platform ecosystem is a significant advantage

  • Proven ability to lead complex, high-value sales cycles involving legal, procurement, and executive-level negotiation

  • Exceptional communication, relationship-building, and executive presence

  • A strategic, consultative sales approach rooted in value creation and customer success

  • Highly self-motivated and capable of operating with autonomy, while collaborating cross-functionally to drive outcomes
