Enterprise Account Executive (£100k base x 2 OTE)

We are working exclusively with our client to find an Enterprise Account Executive.

About:

We’re partnering with a leading provider of talent acquisition technology, supporting enterprise organisations to transform how they attract, hire, and retain talent at scale.

With a long-standing presence in the market and significant recurring revenue, we work with organisations managing complex, high-volume, and global hiring needs. Their platform delivers measurable improvements across efficiency, cost optimisation, and candidate experience.

Following a recent regional restructure, the company is sharpening its focus on enterprise customers with more sophisticated hiring requirements. They are now building a consistent, high-performing go-to-market function under new leadership.

With a renewed product strategy centred around AI and access to a substantial proprietary dataset, the business is well-positioned for its next phase of growth.

They are now hiring an Enterprise Account Executive to drive new business across the region.

Key Highlights:

• Enterprise AE role within a globally established talent acquisition platform undergoing a strategic GTM reset across EMEA.
• Opportunity to join at a true inflexion point - new regional leadership, refined market focus, and a rebuilt, high-performing commercial function.
• Clear shift towards enterprise customers (2,500+ employees), targeting complex, multi-region organisations with sophisticated hiring needs.
• Strong commercial model with typical ACVs of ~$170k+, scaling to $200k–$300k+ for mid-enterprise and significantly higher for larger organisations.
• Access to one of the largest datasets in the talent space, now combined with a new AI-led product strategy to drive measurable customer outcomes.
• Highly value-driven sales motion - supported by a dedicated value engineering team focused on ROI metrics such as time-to-hire, cost reduction, and recruiting efficiency.
• Structured enterprise selling approach, with deep engagement across stakeholders and clear alignment to business cases and long-term value creation.
• Opportunity to operate with high ownership - lean team, startup-like execution environment, and autonomy to shape territory strategy and approach.
• Well-defined core markets across UK&I, France, Benelux, Switzerland, and the Middle East, with an existing enterprise customer base to build from.
• Ideal environment for a consultative, commercially sharp enterprise seller who thrives in complex sales cycles and values autonomy over heavy support structures.

Role:

• Own and drive new enterprise revenue across a defined territory in EMEA, focusing on organisations with 2,500+ employees.
• Work towards an ~$850k annual quota, closing complex, high-value deals typically ranging from $170k–$300k+ ACV.
• Build and execute a strategic territory plan, identifying and prioritising high-potential enterprise accounts across multiple verticals.
• Lead end-to-end enterprise sales cycles, typically ranging from 6–12 months, involving multiple stakeholders and complex buying processes.
• Engage senior HR, Talent Acquisition, and operational leaders to position their solution as a strategic platform for hiring transformation.
• Drive a value-led sales process, partnering with internal value engineering teams to quantify ROI and align solutions to customer business cases.
• Collaborate closely with marketing and outsourced SDR functions to generate pipeline through targeted outbound and account-based campaigns.
• Operate in a highly autonomous environment - owning your patch, building relationships, and driving deals with limited reliance on large support teams.
• Work cross-functionally with product, customer success, and leadership to navigate complex requirements, including compliance, global hiring processes, and industry-specific needs.
• Maintain strong pipeline visibility and forecasting discipline, contributing to a predictable and scalable enterprise sales motion.

Responsibilities:

• Track record of closing mid-to-large enterprise deals (six-figure+ ACV), with experience navigating multi-stakeholder buying groups.
• Strong understanding of value-based selling, with the ability to articulate ROI and align solutions to measurable business outcomes.
• Experience managing long and complex sales cycles (6–12 months), including business case development, procurement, and stakeholder alignment.
• Comfortable operating in a lean, high-autonomy environment - able to build pipeline, drive deals, and own outcomes without heavy support infrastructure.
• Highly consultative approach, with the ability to uncover customer challenges and position solutions within broader organisational transformation initiatives.
• Strong commercial acumen and curiosity - able to engage deeply with customer problems and continuously push deals forward.
• Experience collaborating cross-functionally to close deals, bringing in technical, product, and value engineering teams where needed.
• Resilient and proactive mindset - not passive, but driven to create opportunities and maintain momentum in complex sales environments.
