📐 About the role

Join WRITER's sales team as a strategic account executive and help shape the future of work. You'll empower global enterprises (8,000+ employees) to transform their operations through our cutting-edge AI agent platform, enabling organizations to deploy AI at scale and unlock unprecedented productivity. This isn't just about hitting quota – it's about becoming a trusted advisor to some of the world's most influential companies as they navigate their AI transformation journey.

This role is perfect for high performers who thrive in fast-paced, intellectually stimulating environments where you have the autonomy to drive results and build lasting relationships with both clients and teammates.

This is a hybrid role based out of our London hub. You'll be reporting to our regional vice president.

Own the full enterprise sales cycle from prospecting through close, managing complex deals with 8-18 month sales cycles and navigating multi-stakeholder buying committees across procurement, legal, IT, and business units

Drive net-new revenue by identifying, qualifying, and developing strategic opportunities within target verticals and named account lists, consistently building a robust pipeline that exceeds coverage targets

Engage C-level executives and senior decision-makers in consultative discovery to understand their business priorities, uncover transformational use cases, and position WRITER as the strategic platform to achieve their AI vision

Partner cross-functionally with solutions engineering, product, and customer success teams to architect tailored solutions, run successful pilots, and ensure seamless deployments that deliver measurable business outcomes

Lead complex negotiations involving multi-year contracts, custom pricing structures, and enterprise terms, while maintaining deal momentum and driving consensus across diverse stakeholder groups

Become a trusted product expert who educates prospects on how to set up and leverage WRITER's AI agent platform, going hands-on during critical evaluation phases to demonstrate value and accelerate time-to-deployment

Maintain rigorous pipeline hygiene and forecasting accuracy, consistently delivering predictable revenue results while providing leadership with transparent visibility into deal progression and risk factors
