Business Development Director

Attensi is a Norwegian tech company specialized in gamified simulation training. Since our inception in 2012, Attensi has grown to become a global leader in the field, with training solutions used by global brands in more than 140 countries and 30 different languages. We use gamification, realistic interactive scenarios, and decision-driven dialogues, powered by our game AI, to create a ‘learning by doing’ training environment that encourages repetition and builds mastery. It is a radically new method to achieve high impact training that scales across large organisations.

We support healthcare, pharmaceutical, retail, hospitality and professional services organisations, collaborating with many NHS trusts across the UK and trusted brands including Boehringer Ingelheim, Novartis, Circle K, PwC, Accenture, KPMG, Hiscox and Zurich. Attensi’s team now consists of more than 200+ Game Changers across our offices in London, Oslo and Boston. With 70 gamechangers based in London, Attensi is growing at rocket speed and with our additional funding we are now taking our commercial team to new heights.

You will have:

• BSc degree or higher
• Client facing Healthcare sales background
• Experience building strong and trusting relationships with prospects and clients alike to become a trusted partner at both a professional and personal level
• At least 5+ years' work experience in a client facing sales role
• Experience in establishing relationships with CIOs and Senior IT stakeholders
• Previous experience with business development and enterprise sales is ideal, but we believe that this can also be developed, provided the right motivation and skillset

What will you do?

The very first thing you will do once you join Attensi is to get to know our products, values and way of operating. We want you to get under the skin of our business and truly understand the value we provide our customers, so that you can represent us externally with genuine excitement and confidence. Your role will include:

• Identifying ideal customers, and actively pursuing conversations and meetings with key decision makers in those companies, leveraging our proven playbook the ‘Attensi way of Selling’
• Prospecting, generating leads and increasing awareness and knowledge about Attensi in the professional services space through attending industry events and exhibitions, hosting webinars etc.
• Mapping and specifying organisational challenges, training and development needs together with prospective customers
• Working closely with our Customer Success team who provide operational support for our customers as well as work with them to explore upsell opportunities
• Work closely with the broader Attensi commercial team and overall organisation to develop best practices and grow the organisation

What do we offer?

At Attensi you will become part of an exciting and rapidly growing scale-up that is already a global leader in its field. You get to work in an exciting environment surrounded by committed, smart and talented colleagues from a variety of backgrounds, both culturally and academically. You will play a central role in our largest and fastest growing team and will have very good opportunities for further development and growth in both the role and the company.

Attensi has an energetic and social working environment. And with that, we have the appreciation and understanding behind operating in a hybrid model, where we are in-person thrice weekly in our London offices near Southwark - or out meeting our clients in person, which we believe is the best way to create meaningful relationships. We work hard but also have a lot of fun. Monthly social activities like Attensi-days, sporting events, after-work drinks, get togethers, game nights and company trips to our Norwegian HQ or elsewhere, are some of the ways in which we ensure we not only work together, but also play together!
