Senior Account Executive
KinFitz and Co
Are you a senior salesperson who has sold into banks and regulated financial services, and wants to be the first commercial hire in a business rather than the twentieth?
This is an AI compliance platform used by household name UK banks, fintechs and pension providers. It reviews financial marketing and promotions for regulatory compliance before they go out, monitors them once they are live, and gives marketing teams instant feedback instead of a week in a review queue. Founded in 2024, seed funded and VC backed, with a Series A on the horizon. Just under 15 people, all London based, and retention on the product is exceptional once it is embedded.
What’s in it for you
* GBP 100,000 base with GBP 100,000 variable, taking on target earnings to GBP 200,000
* Meaningful share options in a business at seed stage, on a plan designed to reward the people who build it
* Private healthcare and dental, hardware budget, monthly gym contribution
* Every deal to date has been closed by the founders. You are the first commercial hire and the direct path to building and leading the sales team as the business scales
* Full sales stack already paid for, so your time goes on selling rather than admin
* Exposure to the US market as the US entity opens
What will you be doing
* Owning new business end to end: prospecting, discovery, pilot, close and renewal
* Taking founder led selling off the founders and turning it into something repeatable
* Running daily outbound across phone, email and LinkedIn, with meetings in person as a first move rather than a last resort
* Working the warm engine already in place: events, content, community and inbound signals
* Selling to compliance, risk and finance leaders, and bringing marketing along with you
* Building the CRM, sequencing and reporting that the function will run on
* Working directly with the founders on pricing, positioning and go to market
What do you need
* Five years or more in outbound heavy sales, with a track record of hitting or beating number in a scaling business
* Experience selling into banks, financial services or another regulated industry, so you already speak the language of a compliance buyer
* Evidence you have built something from zero to one, whether that is a process, a territory, a tool or a team, rather than inheriting a patch that already worked
* A genuine hunter mentality. You would rather pick up the phone or sit across a table than wait on inbound
* High ownership and comfort with ambiguity. There is no playbook here and nobody is going to hand you one
* Able to hold a credible conversation about a technical, regulated product without being an expert on day one
* London based and happy to be in the office four days a week
