Success in this role requires 7+ years of B2B SaaS or consulting sales, including closing six‑figure deals with enterprise or upper mid‑market accounts. You will focus on UK and EMEA mid‑market and enterprise clients across industries such as financial services, retail, and manufacturing, partnering with a highly skilled team of data consultants to position differentiated solutions, not just products.

• Originate and develop trusted relationships with prospects by understanding their business objectives and presenting relevant data service offerings.
• Collaborate with solutions architects and consulting teams to shape, propose, and position InterWorks’ data and analytics solutions and services.
• Negotiate commercial terms, structure six‑figure services engagements, and manage procurement and legal processes through to signature.
• Represent InterWorks at industry events and through targeted outreach to create and progress new opportunities.
• Maintain accurate pipeline, forecasting, and account plans in Salesforce, ensuring all activities and next steps are clearly documented.
• Work across new technologies and lead change.
• Shape transformation projects and the tech stack behind them.
• Build client relationships that last for years.
• Report to a manager who trusts you to get on with it.

• Experience working with or selling around Salesforce and modern data platforms.
• Prior experience in a consultancy or professional services environment.

Skills & Attributes

• Strong written and oral communication skills, with a consultative, outcome‑focused selling style.
• Business acumen, technical acumen, and the ability to translate complex data concepts into clear business value.
• Ability to clarify a prospect’s challenge, articulate the problem, propose a solution, coordinate across departments, and follow through on architecting the sales effort.
• Ability to build and maintain a robust sales pipeline while delivering accurate forecasting to sales leadership.
• Creative problem‑solving and analytical skills, with high attention to detail and the ability to work under pressure.
• Curiosity, resilience, and a positive, collaborative attitude.
