The posting
Sales Director – 4insight® Marine Operations
Weather-dependent marine operations still run on conservative rules and incomplete data. 4insight® changes that. It connects vessel data, metocean conditions and engineering models to support better decisions across tender, planning and execution. The platform already streams high-frequency data from 20 vessels, and customers use it to maximise vessel operability, cut organisational overhead and cost of loss.
4Subsea is now moving from project-based services to subscriptions, and we need someone to lead the commercial side of the sales process. This is a senior individual role with no direct reports. You build the go-to-market sales strategy and then execute it yourself, from the first meeting with an operations manager to a signed subscription with the client.
What you will do
- Own the go-to-market sales strategy, subscription model, pricing logic and sales collateral
- Win new accounts among vessel owners, marine contractors and operators, and lead each opportunity from first contact through pilot and close, and further to renewal
- Turn how existing customers use the platform into reference cases and expansion opportunities
- Be the commercial voice in internal product development, with evidence from the market on what customers will and will not pay for
- Represent 4Subsea at industry conferences and in class-society and standards arenas
What you bring
- A proven track record of selling subscription-based digital services to large industrial or B2B customers
- Experience building a commercial sales strategy for a new or scaling SaaS or industrial software offering, and navigating the shift from project-based to recurring revenue
- Comfort with complex, multi-stakeholder sales and long sales cycles
- Ability to discuss data platforms, APIs and AI-supported decision support credibly, including why auditability and class alignment matter
- Speaking full professional English, where speaking Norwegian is a further advantage. Willingness to travel internationally, including to vessels and customer sites
- A plus but not required: To have documented marine and offshore experience and a network among contractors, vessel owners, operators or class societies. We have domain expertise in-house and will teach you the operational basics
You are self-driven, technically honest about what the product does and does not do, a tentative listener, and a collaborative colleague who uses CRM and AI tools to spend more time with customers
What we offer
- Influence on strategy, pricing and roadmap. You report directly to the VP, and your market evidence shapes what we build
- Something that works. A live platform with 50 vessels, 15 customer’s not a slide deck
- Experts beside you. Marine engineers, data scientists and consultants work with you on every customer conversation, and you get time to learn the operational basics
- A broad market. Oil and gas, maritime and offshore wind, from marine construction and installation to IMR, logistics and people transfer
- An international arena. Vessels, customer sites, conferences and class-society forums
- A close-knit team in Asker with a lively social calendar, from weekly sports to team events throughout the year
- Energetic and knowledgeable colleagues, the opportunity to work with cutting-edge technology, competitive compensation packages, a dynamic and fast-paced work environment, and opportunities for professional growth and the chance to influence the roadmap of an ambitious company
If you are an independent, results-oriented professional with a passion for practical engineering, we hope you will join our team. Apply for the position - we look forward to getting to know you!
