Senior Director of Sales - UKI (6 month contract)

UKI Senior Director of Sales (6 month contract)

Building, testing, and validating commercial opportunities is what motivates you. You are energised by entering new or underdeveloped markets, working close to customers and partners, and turning real world signals into clear, actionable recommendations.

This role reports to our SVP of Global Sales, and works in close partnership with our CRO, who is based in the UK and deeply involved in this work. You will also collaborate closely with GTM leaders across Marketing and Customer Success, with a number of team members already based in or dedicated to the UK market, ensuring strong local context.
