  • Initiate and own C‑suite‑level engagement with CEOs, COOs, CIOs, CTOs, and other senior executives.
  • Conduct consultative discovery to identify enterprise‑wide workflows where AI can deliver measurable impact.
  • Serve as the primary commercial owner for high‑value, first‑time enterprise deals from initial engagement through close.
  • Influence executive stakeholders by articulating AI value, adoption pathways, and long‑term business outcomes.
  • Navigate complex, multi‑stakeholder buying environments involving technology, risk, procurement, and executive sponsors.
  • Partner with internal AI, product, and solution teams to deliver credible, executive‑ready propositions.
  • Deliver senior‑level presentations and strategic discussions that align AI solutions to organizational priorities.
  • Develop targeted go‑to‑market strategies to penetrate new accounts and sectors.
  • Establish repeatable new‑logo enterprise sales motions to support scalable growth.

Experience & Requirements

  • At least 8 years’ experience in enterprise new‑business sales, ideally within large or global organizations.
  • Proven success originating and closing complex, high‑value deals with C‑suite and senior executive buyers.
  • Strong AI fluency, with the ability to clearly articulate AI concepts, use cases, benefits, and limitations.
  • Demonstrated ability to influence executive adoption of AI solutions, including addressing trust, risk, and governance concerns.
  • Experience selling AI‑enabled platforms, SaaS, or advanced digital solutions into established enterprises.
  • Strong executive presence and credibility in senior‑level commercial and strategic discussions.
  • Ability to translate complex AI capabilities into clear, outcome‑based business cases.
  • Experience managing long, multi‑layered enterprise buying cycles.
  • Collaborative approach with experience working across cross‑functional, matrixed teams.
  • Strategic mindset, learning agility, and ongoing interest in enterprise AI trends and responsible adoption.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
