Sr. Corporate Sales Representative, UK

Lots of tech companies disrupt. But, many fail when they try to scale. We're different. CockroachDB makes it easier for companies to build and scale apps. This is how and why we're helping some of the most innovative companies on the planet. We tackle problems head-on and focus on solutions that create lasting impact. 

We’re looking for a Senior Corporate Sales Representative to join our growing UK Sales team. This is a quota-carrying, full-cycle role focused on driving new business and expansion within mid-market accounts.

As a Senior Corporate Sales Rep, you’ll own the sales process from discovery through close, partner closely with Sales Engineering, and engage technical and business stakeholders to position CockroachDB as a strategic solution for mission-critical workloads. You’ll operate with a high degree of autonomy, contribute to pipeline strategy, and serve as a role model for strong sales execution within the Corporate segment.

• Be responsible for driving all sales motions (prospect-to-close) for a defined revenue tier. This will include responding to lead generation efforts, conducting demos, developing customer relationships, and closing the opportunity.  
• Lead compelling presentations of CockroachDB’s product and vision to a broad range of audiences from C-level executives to individual contributors
• Provide timely and accurate forecasts and clear visibility on sales and revenue performance by actively handling your pipeline of opportunities
• Manage strong working relationships with internal partners, including sales engineering, sales development & customer success.

In your first 30 days, you will learn about CockroachDB and will be able to pitch the product proficiently. We believe that it is necessary for you to build this foundation so you can successfully engage with existing accounts and grasp the sales strategy. Upon completion of your first month, you will have built cross-functional relationships and will have started building your strategy for account penetration. 

After three months, you'll have a sound plan for account strategy and mapping. You have started building relationships with several leaders across your region and are beginning to understand their challenges and how CockroachDB can help solve them. 

After six months, you will have at least 5x your quota in the pipeline and will have several active POCs in process.  

• 1-2+ years of closing sales experience with demonstrated success in selling a SaaS product or adjacent technology
• 3-5 years of total experience, ideally within B2B software sales
• A strong ability to connect with customers by actively listening to determine their needs
• A track record of overachievement and hitting sales targets
• Previous Sales Methodology training (e.g., MEDDICC, SPIN, Challenger Sales)
• Strong time and resource management skills
• College degree or equivalent work experience
