Sales Director - Benelux

Ultimo provides enterprise asset management (EAM) software used by asset-intensive organisations to manage, maintain, and optimise assets across sites and regions. 

Customers operate in environments where uptime, safety, compliance, and long-term performance matter. Ultimo’s software is deeply embedded in day-to-day operations — it is operational backbone, not a discretionary tool. 

Ultimo is part of IFS, providing long-term backing, global scale, and ongoing investment — while retaining its own product identity, focus, and entrepreneurial, scale-up way of operating. This allows Ultimo to combine commercial autonomy with the stability of a global enterprise software group. 

Sales Leader - Benelux 

Why this role exists 

In the Benelux region, Ultimo is a market leader. 

The product is trusted, the install base is deep, and brand recognition is strong. The region represents one of Ultimo’s most commercially significant markets, accounting for a substantial proportion of overall company revenue and long-standing customer relationships. 

And that is precisely why this role exists. This opportunity is about unlocking the next level of performance level in a region that has historically been successful.  We’re hiring a Sales Director for Benelux to lead that evolution. 

This is not a caretaker role. It’s a mandate to modernise how enterprise selling is done in one of Ultimo’s most important markets.

How you’ll lead 

Ultimo operates like a scale-up inside a serious enterprise business:

• Expectation to challenge legacy behaviours constructively 
• Leadership through judgement, clarity, and influence — not ego 

What we’re looking for 

This role will suit someone who can demonstrate:

• Confidence modernising sales culture and capability
