What you'll do

  • Take commercial ownership of an assigned portfolio of established customers, developing strategies to drive incremental recurring revenue.
  • Analyze customer usage, product adoption, business models, and growth plans to identify opportunities for cross-selling, upselling, and geographic expansion.
  • Run targeted, personalized outbound campaigns to engage new stakeholders, departments, and decision-makers within your customer portfolio.
  • Lead discovery, qualify opportunities, develop commercial proposals, negotiate terms, and close expansion deals.
  • Identify opportunities spanning Voice AI, SIP trunking, programmable voice, messaging, WhatsApp Business, global numbers, wireless, and AI infrastructure.
  • Develop connections with technical buyers, business leaders, and economic decision-makers to uncover new use cases and accelerate adoption.
  • Own an incremental MRR target, focusing on commercially attributable, profitable expansion rather than organic usage growth alone.
  • Work closely with Hunter AEs during account transitions and partner with Solutions Engineering, Customer Success, and Product teams to execute expansion strategies.
  • Maintain accurate opportunities, account plans, and forecasts in Salesforce, ensuring clear visibility into pipeline health and commercial progress.
  • Share market insights, product feedback, and emerging customer requirements to help shape our roadmap and go-to-market strategy.

What we're looking for

  • Experience in B2B technology sales, ideally as an Account Executive, Growth AE, or in a commercially focused business development role.
  • A demonstrated ability to generate pipeline through proactive outbound prospecting rather than relying exclusively on inbound demand.
  • A hunter mentality and the commercial curiosity to identify opportunities that aren't immediately obvious.
  • Strong discovery and consultative selling skills, with the ability to connect technical capabilities to measurable business outcomes.
  • Experience navigating multiple stakeholders and building relationships with both technical and commercial decision-makers.
  • The ability to independently manage opportunities, develop business cases, and move deals through a structured sales process.
  • Strong account research and strategic thinking skills, including identifying whitespace and opportunities for cross-selling.
  • Comfort discussing technical products with developers, engineering teams, operations leaders, and executives.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Experience managing pipeline and forecasts.
  • A proactive, accountable mindset with a genuine desire to own and deliver revenue results.

Nice to have

  • Experience in CPaaS, UCaaS, telecom, cloud infrastructure, AI, or developer-focused technology platforms.
  • Familiarity with Voice AI, SIP trunking, programmable communications, WhatsApp Business API, or messaging infrastructure.
  • Previous success in an expansion, cross-sell, upsell, or account-growth role.
  • Experience selling multiple products or solutions into the same organization.
  • Familiarity with MEDDPICC or another structured qualification methodology.
  • Experience working with international or multinational customers across Europe.
