Our client is a fast-growing software company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. This is a hands-on commercial role for someone who will sell directly while designing the sales approach from the ground up.

What you'll do

  • Generate new opportunities through direct outreach and guide each deal to signature.
  • Work out who the decision makers are at each prospect, adapt messaging to suit them, then handle pricing discussions.
  • Build product demonstrations from scratch using modern AI tooling.
  • Help define how the company approaches the market and structures its selling.
  • Partner with the founders on product direction from a commercial perspective.
  • Recruit, develop and lead sales colleagues as the team expands.

What we're looking for

  • Recent sales work at a rapidly scaling technology firm, closing deals with large corporate clients.
  • A bachelor's degree from a top-50 international university.
  • Willingness to carry out intensive outbound prospecting for several hours each day.
  • A proven record of managing deals end to end, from first lead through to agreed terms.
  • Fluency with AI-native sales and productivity tools, with the ability to build demos independently.

Bonus points

  • Earlier experience standing up a sales function or entering new markets at a high-growth company.
