Who we are

Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve their operations. At Samsara, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy. Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.

Working at Samsara means you’ll help define the future of physical operations and be on a team that’s shaping an exciting array of product solutions, including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, Equipment Monitoring, and Site Visibility. As part of a recently public company, you’ll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long term.

About the role:

The Major Accounts sales team is responsible for revenue growth in new and existing customers that represent the largest prospective Enterprise accounts for Samsara by total addressable opportunity. 

You should be an energetic evangelist and passionate about introducing a transformative new technology into the market. You should have a history of over-achievement and be comfortable selling into all levels of an Enterprise organization, including technology and lines of business.

This is a remote position open to candidates based in United Kingdom. Relocation assistance will not be provided for this role.

You should apply if: 

  • You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real-world impact—helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
  • Your mantra is #alwaysbeprospecting: The world of operations is vast. Your customers are often out in the field and the best way to catch them is live on the phone. Samsara’s top reps do constant research to find companies and contacts to expand their pipeline.
  • You have innate curiosity in how businesses work: One day you’ll meet with someone in waste management and the next you may be learning about the inner workings of a food distribution center. Our top sales team members seek to learn the ins and outs of the businesses they support in order to make a larger impact. 
  • You are a life-long learner: Samsara sales are complex. You will need to learn about businesses where you previously had little knowledge. The payoff is big but you have to be willing to put in the work. 
  • You build genuine relationships with your customers: The industries we serve have relied on pen-and-paper solutions for years and haven’t been met with the type of technology we offer. Our customers value earned trust and human relationships built over time.
  • You want to be with the best: Samsara’s high-performance Sales culture means you’ll be surrounded by the best and challenged to go farther than you have before. 

In this role, you will: 

  • Develop Executive-Level relationships within strategic, named accounts
  • Own customer engagements end-to-end, from prospecting and qualification to close
  • Demonstrate excellent solution-based sales process in complex sales campaigns
  • Mobilize a large matrix virtual team of business stakeholders to include Operations, Finance, IT, dedicated Solution Engineer and Account Development Representative
  • Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices

Minimum requirements for the role:

  • 7+ years experience in a full-cycle, closing sales role
  • Proven track record of consistent quota over-achievement in complex accounts and $1M+ ARR transactions
  • Experience handling and owning enterprise deal sizes and C-Level relationships
  • Strategic pursuit experience and comfortable with targeted prospecting. 
  • Excellent interpersonal skills and demonstrated ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment
  • Team player, with a collaborative mindset

  • Awards for top achievement (President’s club, Winner’s circle, Top 10%)
  • Passionate about transformational technology in the world operations 
  • Excited about solving new problems in innovative ways 
  • Experienced in selling technology solutions (preferably IoT/SaaS) to Enterprise customers
