Job description

Where You Come In:

This is a rare opportunity to lead sales in the UK for Luma. As our first fully dedicated sales hire in the UK, you will not just execute a playbook; you will help evolve and develop it. Your mission is to place Luma's frontier technology at the heart of the UK’s creative ecosystem.

What You'll Do:

• Develop and execute the sales motion for Luma in the UK.
• Establish and nurture potential sales opportunities with creative agencies, media companies, and brands, turning them into flagship customers and advocates.

Who You Are:

• 5+ years of full-cycle sales experience in a fast-paced, high-growth technology environment.
• A proven "hunter" with a demonstrated history of creating new business from scratch through relentless outbound prospecting.
• Experience successfully navigating the "0-to-1" and hypergrowth phase of a company, preferably as a founding or early sales hire in a new market or region.
• A tenacious, high-agency executor with an entrepreneurial mentality and a history of driving tangible results in ambiguous, resource-constrained settings.
• Exceptional communication and strategic thinking skills, with the ability to articulate the value of a complex, novel technology to creative and business leaders.

What Sets You Apart (Bonus Points):

• Experience selling creative technology, generative AI, or high-growth, product-led SaaS.
• A genuine passion for the creative potential of AI and our mission to expand human imagination.
• Experience working in a small team that will scale rapidly.
