What you need
7-10+ years of quota-carrying strategic SaaS sales experience with a proven track record of meeting or exceeding annual quotas in complex, value-based sales motions targeting Fortune 500 and Global 2000 financial services accounts
Deep understanding of the UK and European financial services landscape — banking, asset management, insurance, and fintech — including its regulatory environment, buying cycles, and communication standards
Demonstrated expertise in managing sophisticated enterprise sales cycles with multiple stakeholders, navigating procurement and security processes, and orchestrating cross-functional resources to drive deals through technical evaluations and executive approvals
Executive presence and communication skills that allow you to credibly engage with C-suite buyers (CIOs, CDOs, CTOs, COOs), translate complex technical concepts into business value, and build authentic relationships based on trust and strategic insight
Strong consultative selling skills with the ability to conduct discovery that uncovers underlying business challenges, connects AI capabilities to measurable outcomes, and creates urgency around transformation initiatives in regulated industries
Experience in outbound prospecting, account mapping, and territory planning, with a hunter mentality that drives you to consistently create new opportunities rather than waiting for inbound leads
Comfort with ambiguity and a bias for ownership — you thrive in fast-paced environments where you're expected to figure things out, make decisions with incomplete information, and drive your own success with minimal oversight
Deep alignment with WRITER's values: you naturally Connect across functions and build collaborative relationships, you Challenge the status quo and aren't afraid to have difficult conversations, and you Own your outcomes with accountability and a commitment to long-term impact
⭐️ Is this you?
You've sold into financial services institutions and understand what it takes to navigate complex, regulated buying environments — from security and compliance reviews to board-level approvals
You're a closer who has consistently carried and exceeded seven-figure quotas, and you can point to deals where you created the opportunity from scratch rather than working an inbound lead
You think like a consultant but sell like a hunter — your discovery uncovers pain buyers didn't know they had, and your storytelling connects AI to outcomes that matter to a CIO and a CFO alike
You understand the UK FS market specifically — the players, the regulators, the buying rhythms — and you have or can build a network that opens doors
You're comfortable in the boardroom and the back office — equally credible presenting an AI transformation vision to an exec team and working through the technical and procurement details with the people who sign off
You move fast, own your number, and don't wait to be told what to do next
