Enterprise Account Director - Americas

Your job will be to help nPlan build upon our current success with clients such as Shell and Network Rail (the UK’s Amtrak) by onboarding new and exciting clients to help us take the business to the next level. You will report to our Commercial Director (Head of Sales) and be in a position to influence the direction of the business. Whilst you will be provided with training, guidance and support from nPlan UK and your counterpart in the region, the right person will help us shape our approach to the North American market.

Our purpose is to inspire the world to forecast correctly and empower it to tackle risk, powered by our deep learning technology and its unique ability to forecast the outcomes of construction projects. We’re on a mission to change how construction projects are planned, managed and executed, and in the process unlock a trillion dollars of new project value for the world through our data-driven forecasting.

We’re lucky to work on some of the largest infrastructure projects in the world, which gives us both an opportunity and a privilege to make a significant impact on the world around us, and what it will look like in the future, every day.

You’ll be joining a world class and well funded team, backed by top investors including GV (formerly known as Google Ventures) that all believe in the future we are creating. We’ve been on a tremendous growth trajectory for the last five years, and following our latest investment round we’ve got very ambitious growth plans for 2023 and beyond.

About the role:

We’ll need you to:

• Embody the challenger sale (as a proven technique to selling products that are in a new category).
• Work as part of a team and embrace the start-up mentality. Do what needs to be done to attract and retain customers - regardless of whether it's part of this job description.
• Build a network of contacts across the engineering and construction sector (or ideally have one already!) to drive referrals and word-of-mouth selling.
• Be willing to work in a vibrant environment that is still being shaped by incredibly talented individual.

About you:

• >4 years success selling SaaS into large enterprises.
• Experience of project controls and project management (bonus for if you’ve sold SaaS to construction projects!)
• A good understanding of complex sales; you will be able to qualify businesses that we can effectively serve and forecast the outcomes of your work with them.
• The capacity to rapidly grasp and communicate new concepts, and a desire to challenge the status quo, as we are selling a new category of service.
• Grit, tenacity and resourcefulness, as the journey to success will neither be simple or served on a plate
  
• Attention to detail, which you will be able to demonstrate by mentioning the word 'crane' in your application.
• An attitude and working style that embodies our values: Aim High Run Fast, Be Radically Truthful, Learn From Everything.

In return we'll provide you with:

• The ability to earn uncapped commission.
• Equity in the business so that you not only benefit from your short-term performance but also your contribution to the success of the business.
• Comprehensive benefits that are continually evolving: if it's a good addition to the package, we'll often just decide to incorporate it as standard. Medical package included.
• A recognition that having time to yourself and a private life is important. We offer a very flexible work environment and a generous holiday policy.

What working at nPlan will be like:

• We are still a relatively small team so there is plenty of opportunity for a high degree of ownership over different areas of the product, and you will be directly exposed to all areas of the business.
• Your voice will always be heard. What you do or say counts, not who you are or where you're from.
• We have three core values that underlie everything we do: Learn from Everything, Be Radically Truthful, and Aim High, Run Fast. These enable us to create a collaborative, inclusive environment where we can move effectively and efficiently to implement the best solutions.
• We are a cross-disciplinary team, and come from all backgrounds and countries.
• Fantastic benefits package for Health & Wellbeing, Learning & Development and more.
• We are committed to addressing the diversity problem in the tech industry, and that starts with making sure we have a diverse team where everyone feels at home and can contribute as an equal.
• Having time to yourself and a private life is important. We offer a very flexible work environment and a generous holiday policy.
  

A note on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion:

We are working hard to create a workplace that is inclusive to everyone, no matter their background, or where they are in life. We believe that only a truly diverse place can create great products that serve a wide audience and improve the world.

We believe in equality of opportunities and that's why we make sure that these ideas are reflected in our values, and that we really apply these in all aspects of our company culture.

If you have a need for any adjustments during our interview process, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate them.
