Licensed sponsor London Full-time Posted 1 hour ago

Department: Client Sales

Location: London, UK

Description

The Regional Sales VP for EMEA Emerging Countries hunts for new logo opportunities in markets that are on the cusp of utility sector transformation, where the absence of strong local competition creates attractive entry opportunities for Gentrack. These markets are characterised by regulatory change, smart meter rollouts, and the need for modern billing infrastructure. The role leverages Gentrack's Australian and UK track records as proof points and is expected to generate £1.5M+ ARR from Emerging Markets by FY28.

- Build senior relationships with target prospects, leveraging Gentrack's track record.
- Manage the full sales cycle from initial qualification to contract signature.
Deal Execution:
- Orchestrate CS&IT, Delivery and partner resources for strategic bids.
- Apply MEDDPICC and the EMEA sales process rigorously.
- Ensure deal economics are sound and margin-accretive from the first win.
