High-impact role focused on landing and expanding major deals with global enterprise clients.

Требования

5–8+ years closing in B2B SaaS — and you’ve actually closed big deals
Track record of winning 6–7 figure enterprise contracts
You’ve sold into complex, global orgs and know how to navigate them
You multi-thread by default — not as a “nice to have”
Strong executive presence — you can hold your own with senior buyers
You create pipeline, not just work it
Competitive, persistent, and comfortable hearing “no” 20 times to get one “yes”
You want to be in the room for the deals that matter — not padded pipeline

You’ll work directly with our VP of Revenue to win accounts that define the company.
