Description:  

We're seeking a Senior Business Development Leader to drive enterprise growth through strategic C-suite relationships and executive-level partnerships.

Your focus is on rapid account expansion—building executive relationships that unlock enterprise-wide adoption and multi-year partnerships. You'll navigate strategic conversations, understand executive priorities, and position our solutions as business-critical investments rather than tactical purchases. 
 

Ideal candidate:

• Strong background in digital experience platforms and their strategic value to enterprises  

• Demonstrated track record closing seven-figure deals with C-suite decision-makers  

• Experience driving rapid account expansion and penetrating new executive stakeholders within existing relationships  

• Proven ability to engage business owners and entrepreneurs in growth-stage and established companies  

 
What sets you apart:  

• You command the room in new client pitches and have strong presentation skills that build trust, confidence and partnership.  

• You understand how MarTech solutions drive business transformation, not just operational efficiency  

• You've built a career on relationships with senior leaders who trust your strategic counsel  

• Your pipeline reflects enterprise-level opportunities with short sales cycles driven by executive urgency  

• You thrive in high-stakes negotiations and complex deal structures  

 
Success metrics:
