• Own Scandinavia: Build pipeline, create demand and win new enterprise customers.
• Close $200k+ ACV deals: Lead complex, high-value sales cycles from prospecting to close.
• Educate the market: Translate cutting-edge technology into compelling business value for customers who may be unfamiliar with the solutions.
• Sell to senior stakeholders: Engage CTOs, CIOs, Chief Scientists, R&D and innovation leaders.
• Shape the growth journey: Establish the company’s presence across enterprise, government and research markets.

What we’re looking for

• Strong startup experience; as a first sales hunter hire or the first commercial person in a new market selling emerging technology.
• Proven enterprise new business sales success, personally closing deals worth $200k+ ACV.
• Experience selling complex, technically sophisticated solutions requiring consultative selling and significant customer education.
• A track record of building markets and winning new business for lesser-known brands / tech.
• Background in deep tech or adjacent sectors such as quantum computing, AI, HPC, EDA, scientific software or advanced simulation.
• Confidence navigating long sales cycles and multiple technical and commercial decision-makers.
• Native Danish, Norwegian, Swedish or Finnish, plus fluent English.
• UK-based and willing to travel across Scandinavia.

Why join?

A rare opportunity to commercialise next-generation technology, win the first major customers in a new region and have a direct impact on the company’s growth.

Senior individual contributor role, no people management.

Ideal candidate: A proven enterprise hunter who has built from zero, sold complex technology to large organisations and knows how to close six-figure deals without relying on brand recognition.
