• Collaborate with marketing, product, and operations to align solutions with market demand
• Represent the business credibly with senior stakeholders in high-trust, regulated sectors

• A proven track record of building and leading sales organisations, ideally in cybersecurity, cloud, or adjacent technology sectors
• An extensive client and LinkedIn network to accelerate business development
• Strong communication and presentation skills to influence at board and client level
• High emotional intelligence, resilience, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment
