Job Description:

Thought Machine’s mission is bold - to properly and permanently rid the world’s banks of legacy technology. To achieve this, we have developed the foundations of modern banking through core and payments technology which run natively in the cloud. What we are attempting is hard and means we need great people working together to build great technology. We are looking to expand our sales team by hiring a Strategic Accounts Sales Director.

  • Partner with sales engineers, delivery, and marketing teams to design and execute highly targeted campaigns for Tier 1 financial institutions
  • Prioritise high-probability opportunities while also cultivating long-term strategic engagements with key banking clients
  • Understand the specific challenges, regulatory environments, and transformation agendas facing Tier 1 banks, collaborating with internal product and engineering teams to deliver relevant solutions
  • Build and execute a Tier 1 banking–focused EMEA sales plan that drives sustainable growth

Requirements:

  • Extensive experience of selling into Tier 1 banks
  • Proven track record of selling complex enterprise software
  • Ability to navigate the complexity of Tier 1 bank organisations with regard to stakeholders, budget holders
  • Experience in fast-moving start-ups or enterprise software sales in more established businesses
  • Good understanding of issues facing retail banks regarding their legacy platforms, including technological, regulatory, and commercial pressures
  • Knowledge and experience of banking procurement practices and processes, and the typical sales lifecycle for selling enterprise platforms into banks
  • Bring energy, gravitas, and enthusiasm to conversations
What we offer:
  • Highly competitive salary and commission
  • Pension plan (match up to 5%)
  • Life insurance - three times annual salary
  • Competitive maternity (six months fully paid) and paternity leave (four weeks fully paid)
  • Shared parental leave (matched to our maternity leave for the same point in time)
  • 25 days holiday and bank holidays
  • Flexible working hours
  • Cycle-to-work scheme
  • Electric car scheme
  • Season ticket loan
  • Access to outstanding learning materials and courses
