• Strong commercial instincts and track record of performance in high-pressure environments
• Upper second-class honours (2:1) or first class honours degree from a Russel Group university or equivalent. A-levels with grades AAB or higher.

• A high-performing commercial team with clear targets and real autonomy

You’ll work closely with the founders of the business on deals that matter, with companies undergoing real transformation, and you'll be empowered to use the latest sales and AI tools to move faster, sell smarter, and win more. This role offers an opportunity to globally expand the customer base of a successful start-up and grow into a senior leadership role.

You won’t be handed a pitch deck and told what to say: you’ll shape the pitch, influence the process, and define what great looks like.
