WRITER is an enterprise generative AI platform valued at $1.9B that enables Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies to build and deploy AI agents grounded in their proprietary data. The company is backed by leading investors including Premji Invest, Radical Ventures, and ICONIQ Growth, with offices in San Francisco, New York, Austin, Chicago, and London.
You will join WRITER's sales team as a Strategic Account Executive focused on the UK and European financial services market. In this hybrid role based in London, reporting to the regional vice president, you will serve as a trusted advisor to global enterprises (8,000+ employees) navigating AI transformation. Your mission is to help these organizations deploy AI at scale and unlock unprecedented productivity through WRITER's enterprise-grade platform.
You will manage complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales cycles targeting Fortune 500 and Global 2000 financial services institutions. This involves conducting sophisticated discovery to uncover underlying business challenges, translating technical AI capabilities into measurable business outcomes, and orchestrating cross-functional resources through technical evaluations and executive approvals. You will engage directly with C-suite buyers (CIOs, CDOs, CTOs, COOs) and navigate procurement, security, and compliance processes in regulated environments. Your role combines consultative selling with a hunter mentality—you will drive outbound prospecting, account mapping, and territory planning to consistently create new opportunities rather than relying on inbound leads.
This is a high-impact role for someone energized by meaningful work, intellectual challenge, and the opportunity to shape how enterprises operate. You will be selling category-defining technology that fundamentally transforms business operations, working on multi-million dollar, multi-year commitments.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 7–10+ years of quota-carrying strategic SaaS sales experience with proven track record of meeting or exceeding annual quotas in complex, value-based sales motions targeting Fortune 500 and Global 2000 financial services accounts
- Deep understanding of the UK and European financial services landscape (banking, asset management, insurance, fintech), including regulatory environment, buying cycles, and communication standards
- Demonstrated expertise managing sophisticated enterprise sales cycles with multiple stakeholders, navigating procurement and security processes, and orchestrating cross-functional resources through technical evaluations and executive approvals
- Executive presence and communication skills to credibly engage with C-suite buyers, translate complex technical concepts into business value, and build authentic relationships based on trust and strategic insight
- Strong consultative selling skills with ability to conduct discovery that uncovers underlying business challenges, connects AI capabilities to measurable outcomes, and creates urgency around transformation initiatives in regulated industries
- Experience in outbound prospecting, account mapping, and territory planning with a hunter mentality that drives consistent creation of new opportunities
- Comfort with ambiguity and bias for ownership; ability to thrive in fast-paced environments, make decisions with incomplete information, and drive success with minimal oversight
- Deep alignment with WRITER's values: ability to connect across functions and build collaborative relationships, challenge the status quo, and own outcomes with accountability and commitment to long-term impact
PREFERRED SKILLS:
- Existing network and relationships within UK or European financial services institutions
- Background in management consulting, particularly with FS clients
- Experience selling AI, data, or enterprise platform deals into regulated industries
- Familiarity with compliance, security, and governance requirements that shape FS buying decisions
- Experience supporting or leading large-scale rollouts or change management programs
- Strong storytelling and presentation skills for executive audiences
