Account Executive, Enterprise (Acquisition) UK

The Role

We are seeking a highly driven, strategic, and consultative Account Executive to lead the full sales cycle and drive new business growth across our strategic Enterprise accounts in the UK. 

This patch is a net-new logo hunter's playground. The territory spans some of the most demanding, deep-pocketed accounts in the UK: global quant trading houses and hedge funds where milliseconds and data integrity define competitive edge, systemically important financial institutions and asset managers with balance sheets in the hundreds of billions, a Big Four professional services giant, a global advertising and marketing holding company, and a mix of consumer and industrial brands with complex, multi-region infrastructure needs. These are organisations where data is the business - where how it's managed, moved, protected and put to work determines whether they win or lose. None of them are customers today. That's the opportunity: a blank sheet, a strategic account list built for someone who wants to build relationships from zero, navigate sophisticated buying committees, and win logos by solving real data management problems -  not inherit a book and defend it.

What You'll Do

• Drive business growth by leading the full enterprise sales cycle, from strategic prospecting to consistently exceeding sales quotas.
• Apply solution and consultative selling to uncover business challenges using data and co-create tailored solutions focused on measurable customer outcomes.
• Develop multi-level, trusted relationships to secure and sustain executive access and engagement for maximum enterprise impact on key accounts.
• Execute strategic account management and account expansion (cross-sell/upsell/new logos) by developing and maintaining multi-year plans for high-value customers.
• Ensure operational excellence and consistent execution by managing sales systems, leveraging tools, and proactively collaborating with internal teams and external partners.

What You'll Bring

• Demonstrated success in direct and indirect enterprise accounts, with a consistent record of meeting or exceeding quotas.
• A strong 'sales hunter' mentality, with a relentless focus on proactive new logo acquisition and identifying high-potential opportunities.
• Expertise in strategic account management disciplines, including deep account planning and relationship building across all organizational levels.
• A robust background in consultative selling, leading discussions with unique insights and building business cases tied to measurable outcomes (ROI, TCO).
• Proven ability to acquire new customers and drive account expansion by identifying white space and effectively leveraging channel partner relationships.
• A deep understanding of the storage industry, cloud computing, and modern data center architecture.
• High level of motivation and intrinsic drive, including emotional intelligence, strategic mindset, and accountability for delivering results.
• Business proficiency in English.
