Overview
Elastic, the Search AI Company, is looking for a high-energy Inside Sales Representative for the UK&I market to drive net-new revenue and expansion within the territory. You’ll own a defined territory, build your pipeline, tell the Elastic Search AI story, and close multi-stakeholder deals in a consumption-based model. This role sits at the intersection of sales execution, technical fluency, and cross-functional collaboration—and is critical to our growth in the UK & I Market.
What You Will Be Doing
- Own your territory and build pipeline: Develop and execute a proactive outbound cadence (email, call, social).
- Deep discovery and qualification: Uncover pain, business impact, budget, and decision criteria using frameworks like MEDDPICC.
- Value storytelling and demos: Craft and deliver tailored narratives and live demos that map Elastic’s Search, Observability, and Security capabilities to measurable business outcomes.
- Mutual deal strategy and forecast accuracy: Collaborate with customers to build formal close plans and keep your CRM up-to-date.
- Negotiation and closing: Lead high-stakes contract and pricing discussions—defend your value, structure give/get trades, and land multi-year consumption commitments.
- Domain and cloud acumen: Position Elastic as the Search AI platform of choice by speaking fluently about cloud economics, usage-based pricing, and modern data architectures.
- Cross-functional partnership: Work with Solutions Architects, Customer Success, Marketing, and RevOps to accelerate deals and drive exceptional customer outcomes.
What You Bring
- Proven SaaS quota‑carrying success: 3+ years closing deals, consistently overachieving targets in a consumption-based or usage-model environment.
- Expert discovery and qualification skills: Demonstrated ability to apply MEDDPICC or equivalent frameworks to drive disciplined pipeline and eliminate low-probability deals.
- Compelling value storytellers: Track record of delivering presentations and demos that tie product capabilities to measurable outcomes.
- Collaborative mindset and coachability: A learner who partners effectively with internal teams and embodies Elastic’s values of community and openness.
- Open Source enthusiasm: Genuine appreciation for open-source communities and the Elastic model—bonus if you’ve sold or advocated in an OSS context.
Bonus Points
- Prior experience at an open-source or developer-centric infrastructure company.
- Familiarity with observability (logs, metrics, traces) or security analytics (SIEM/XDR) use cases.
