Commercial team

Reports to Head of Revenue

Ready to help build the data infrastructure for the sustainable land-use transition? We are building the data, technology and services infrastructure for the sustainable land-use transition — a world with zero deforestation and the large-scale restoration of biodiverse forests. By 2030, our goal is to underpin more than half of all forest carbon investment and deforestation compliance monitoring globally. We are a growing business headquartered in Edinburgh, with team members across the UK and Southeast Asia.

Our products are trusted by the developers and investors in nature-based solutions, including Apple, Equinor, Forest Carbon, Verra, and more. They are also used to support the validation of compliance with the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) through our partnership with ICE’s (NYSE: ICE) Commodity Traceability Service (COT).

We are a group of passionate, dedicated individuals with deep technical and scientific knowledge necessary for producing reliable, high-quality data and insights. We have a strong understanding of our customers’ needs and develop long-term relationships that add value.

To accelerate the growth of Space Intelligence by identifying, qualifying, and nurturing new business opportunities for our geospatial data and tech products in voluntary and compliance markets. The role holder will focus on qualified and targeted outreach and pipeline development, supporting the broader commercial team’s growth goals. This is an individual contributor role focused on tactical sales execution.

Responsibilities

  • Manage the end-to-end sales lifecycle for high-value contracts (e.g. Tier 1 & 2 corporate offtakers, financial investors, corporate sustainability teams) to meet quarterly sales targets.
  • Transition prospects from identifying a problem (e.g. carbon offset risk) to adopting our geospatial suite as their core technical solution.
  • Map complex organisational structures within target sectors to identify and influence budget holders, technical GIS leads, and sustainability executives.
  • Proactively identify and engage with Carbon Project Developers, VCM Traders, and Corporate Sustainability teams. Qualify leads based on their specific geospatial needs (pre-investment due diligence, portfolio monitoring, supply chain monitoring).
  • Build and maintain a rigorous pipeline for coverage of quarterly sales quota, moving deals through multi-month cycles, partnering with our internal science and product teams to ensure our technical proposals are robust and meet the specific requirements of our prospective clients.
  • Coordinate the creation of technical proposals for Requests for Proposals (RFPs), ensuring our geospatial methodology is accurately represented and aligned with client needs.
  • Provide the Head of Revenue with direct feedback on pricing sensitivity and competitor positioning within target sectors.
  • Maintain high-quality data in our CRM (HubSpot) regarding market trends, competitor sightings in the geospatial space and lead status to ensure accurate revenue forecasting.

Skills & experience

  • Enterprise tech sales (4–6 years) — proven track record of managing complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles in a B2B tech environment (SaaS, DaaS, or Geospatial).
  • Sector experience — experience selling into Energy, Finance, large-scale corporates or environmental consultancies is highly preferred. You understand how these entities buy and the “due diligence” they require.
  • Consultative selling — expert at value-based selling; you don’t just sell “data,” you sell the reduction of financial and reputational risk in the buyer’s world.
  • Client stakeholder management — comfortable working at buyer and user levels (both C-level / Head of roles and technical GIS leads) to multi-thread deals and ensure mutual buy-in.
  • Negotiation skills — experience navigating the procurement and legal hurdles typical of large enterprise and global consulting firms.
  • Existing network within carbon markets or the corporate sustainability landscape.
  • Knowledge of the compliance landscape (EUDR, CSRD) and how it affects corporate sustainability objectives and operations.
  • Language skills in Spanish or Portuguese.
