The role

To support the rapid expansion of the Ideals VDR line of business in Poland, we are looking for a Business Development Manager / Enterprise Account Executive based in Warsaw to focus on our Corporate segment. Unlike our advisory-focused motions, you will sell directly to a wide variety of enterprise corporations across diverse industries (such as energy, pharma, biotech, and telecommunications).

As a quota-carrying strategic seller, your primary goal will be to grow sales and revenue by acquiring new strategic enterprise accounts and expanding existing ones. You will act as an industry expert, generate demand, navigate complex 6- to 9-month sales cycles, and displace incumbents by using deep discovery and consultative selling frameworks.

Please note that all interviews will take place in English. Please provide a copy of your CV in English.

What you will do

• Proactively build and manage a pipeline focused on the acquisition of new strategic enterprise accounts (new logos)

• Conduct solution-based sales engagements, including client meetings, executive presentations, and product demonstrations (face-to-face and virtual)

• Maintain "White Space" analysis and execute strategic initiatives to upsell and cross-sell within the existing customer base

• Develop and deliver comprehensive business cases that quantify the cost of inaction and address customer priorities, pain points, and ROI

• Structure, negotiate, and close complex deals, guiding corporate clients step-by-step through enterprise procurement, security compliance, and legal processes

• Orchestrate multi-threading strategies to navigate enterprise politics, establishing strong relationships with C-Suite executives and key stakeholders across various verticals

• Keep an accurate track record of personal sales activities in the CRM, including methodical mid- and long-term forecasting

• Provide relevant customer feedback to the product development team and collaborate with Customer Success, Marketing, and Inbound Sales to maximize revenue and customer satisfaction

What you bring

• 4–7 years of demonstrable quota-carrying success in B2B sales

• Proven track record of managing lengthy or complex enterprise sales cycles

• Significant experience selling directly to C-level executives (CxOs) and multi-threading within large enterprise organizations

• Clear understanding of, and practical experience with, consultative sales methodologies (e.g., MEDDIC/MEDPIC, SPIN, Challenger)

• Exceptional business communication skills, enabling you to execute executive storytelling, challenge the status quo, and handle complex contracting negotiations

• High learning agility, analytical thinking, and commercial curiosity to quickly grasp the nuances of various corporate industries

• High AI fluency and advanced CRM tracking skills

• University degree (bachelor's, equivalent level or above)

• Native-level proficiency in Polish with advanced English (C1+ level)

Nice to have

• Fluency in an additional language

• Background in SaaS, financial technology, or information security sectors
