Senior Account Executive

Job description

The Short Version: This isn't an inherited patch. This isn't a warm book of business. This is a market that doesn't exist yet. You'll build it. Ververica is expanding into the UK and Middle East. We need a founding seller, not a quota-carrier. Someone who's done the zero-to-one before and wants to do it again. No playbook. No safety net. No excuses. If that scares you, stop reading. If it excites you, keep going. The Long Version: You'll own revenue growth for Ververica's stream processing platform across Financial Services and Manufacturing in the UK and Middle East. Two sectors where real-time data isn't a nice-to-have. It's the infrastructure. Financial Services means trading systems, payment processing, and fraud detection. Manufacturing means IIoT and predictive maintenance. These buyers are technical, skeptical, and allergic to slide decks. You'll sell to CTOs and Architects who know when they're being pitched fluff. This isn't feature selling. This is selling a vision of real-time data evolution to people who understand the stakes. You'll connect business outcomes to technical architecture and make the case that Ververica is the platform their most critical workloads deserve...
