• Establish clear goals, performance expectations, and accountability across the UK sales organization

• Develop accurate forecasts and monitor pipeline coverage, conversion rates, deal velocity, and overall sales performance

• Build and continuously improve the processes, messaging, playbooks, and enablement resources required to scale the UK market

• Partner with Marketing, Customer Success, Product, and Engineering to improve the customer journey and share market insights

• Represent Pirros with customers, prospects, partners, and industry stakeholders throughout the UK

What You’ll Own

• UK revenue performance — Consistently meeting or exceeding new business and growth targets

• Market development — Expanding Pirros’ presence, reputation, and customer base throughout the UK

• Pipeline generation — Maintaining sufficient, high-quality pipeline to support revenue goals

• Market intelligence — Ensuring Pirros understands the needs, priorities, objections, and buying behaviors of UK customers

What We’re Looking For

• Significant full-cycle B2B SaaS sales experience, including experience leading or developing salespeople

• A proven track record of meeting or exceeding individual and team revenue targets

• Demonstrated success building pipeline and growing a new market, territory, or regional sales operation

• Experience working in an early-stage or high-growth environment where you helped create processes, structure, and go-to-market strategy

• Strong coaching, leadership, and performance-management capabilities

• Demonstrated ability to manage complex, consultative, and multi-stakeholder sales cycles
