Job Description:

SENIOR ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE

Private markets love this ESG platform. That’s why it keeps beating the competition.

We are working with a European ESG software firm who are expanding to the UK and needs someone to bring that momentum to the UK.

This isn’t just another ESG software firm.

Their product wins tenders because it actually solves the problems funds care about.

Regulatory headaches? Covered.

Investor pressure? Managed.

They’ve nailed product-market fit. Clients in Europe are signing. Competitors are losing. And now it’s time to bring that same energy to the UK.

They’re hiring their first UK Senior Account Executive. Which means:

• You’ll have real autonomy
• You’ll help shape the GTM motion
• You won’t fight over inbound leads
• You’ll work directly with the founders
• And yes, you’ll get equity!

You’ll be selling into private equity, VC, and fund managers – so experience in the private markets space is essential.

The basics:

• Up to £90K base salary
• Double OTE (realistic and uncapped)
• Share options
• Ideally London-based, but happy with a remote UK hire, if you’re happy to travel when it matters

This is one of those rare roles where the timing, market demand, and product strength actually line up.
