A high-growth, globally expanding trading technology SaaS provider is seeking a dynamic and commercially driven Sales Director to spearhead enterprise sales across the UK and Europe.

This is a high-impact strategic role for a seasoned sales leader who understands the demands of trading environments, market infrastructure, and the technology shaping next-generation execution and workflow systems.

The firm delivers cutting-edge trading solutions across asset classes — including execution platforms, OMS/EMS, post-trade workflows, analytics, and cloud-native trading infrastructure. With demand accelerating, they’re ready to expand their senior sales capability across the region.

If you excel at building executive relationships, navigating complex sales cycles, and translating technical capability into commercial value, this opportunity positions you at the centre of modern trading transformation.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead enterprise sales across banks, brokers, asset managers, hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, and fintech trading venues.
• Own and manage the full sales lifecycle — prospecting, demos, stakeholder orchestration, proposals, negotiation, and closing.
• Develop targeted go-to-market strategies tailored to trading desks, market-structure verticals, and high-value SaaS use cases.
• Build, deepen, and actively expand C-suite and senior stakeholder relationships across front-office, technology, operations, and procurement.
• Partner closely with pre-sales, product, and engineering to position the platform effectively and ensure strong solution alignment.
• Maintain accurate forecasting and pipeline management while driving continuous revenue growth.
• Represent the company at industry events, trading forums, networking sessions, and client workshops.
• Provide market intelligence and client feedback to influence the product roadmap and strengthen competitive positioning.

About You

• 8+ years of successful enterprise SaaS sales experience, ideally within trading technology, electronic trading, market infrastructure, OMS/EMS, risk systems, or capital-markets platforms.
• Strong network across UK/EU buy-side and sell-side trading organisations.
• Proven track record of closing complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles with Tier 1 and mid-tier financial institutions.
• Ability to translate sophisticated trading technology into clear, compelling commercial narratives.
• Strategic thinker with strong commercial instincts, pipeline discipline, and high energy.
• Excellent communicator — confident in front of traders, CTOs, COOs, and procurement teams.
• Entrepreneurial, self-driven, and highly comfortable working in a fast-growth, scaling environment.

Why Join?

• Join a rapidly growing SaaS trading-tech company backed by strong investment and a world-class engineering team.
• High levels of ownership, autonomy, and direct influence on commercial strategy.
• Opportunity to shape how modern trading firms adopt cloud-native, agile trading infrastructure.
• Attractive compensation package with significant commission upside.
• Collaborative, ambitious culture with a strong technical backbone and serious growth momentum.
