Your duties

As a Senior Enterprise Account Executive, you will own large, complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles with strategic enterprise accounts in the BeNeLux, Nordics and UK. You will sell a platform, not a point solution. This requires engaging everyone from project and program managers to PMO leaders, enterprise architects, and the C-suite. You’ll run consultative, value-based cycles that often span multiple business units, and you’ll be the quarterback coordinating solution consultants, partners, and executives to land and expand six and seven-figure deals.

Own the full enterprise sales cycle end to end - from pipeline generation and qualification through business-case development, negotiation, and close - for strategic accounts in your territory.
Build and execute strategic account and territory plans that identify priority logos, key stakeholders, and expansion paths within complex global organizations.
Run consultative, value-based discovery to map cplace capabilities to high-stakes business outcomes in PPM, product development, and cross-company collaboration.
Navigate multi-stakeholder buying committees, building champions and aligning project managers, PMO and enterprise architecture leaders, procurement, and executive sponsors.
Orchestrate internal and partner resources, such as solution consultants, professional services, and implementation partners, to deliver compelling proofs of value and tailored demonstrations.
Forecast accurately and manage your pipeline in the cplace CRM, maintaining disciplined deal hygiene and a reliable view of your business.
Negotiate commercial terms and pricing for platform agreements that balance customer value with long-term account growth.
Partner with marketing, product, and customer success to drive land-and-expand motions and ensure customers realize measurable value post-sale.
Represent cplace at industry events and with executive audiences, and feed market insight back into product and go-to-market strategy.

Your profile

7+ years of quota-carrying B2B software/SaaS sales experience, with a strong track record of closing complex enterprise deals (six and seven figures).
Demonstrated success selling platform or enterprise software into large organizations with long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles.
Experience selling into engineering-led or product-development functions, ideally in automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical/life sciences, energy and construction - or adjacent industries - or a clear ability to ramp quickly in technical domains.
Mastery of a value-based or consultative sales methodology (e.g., MEDDPICC, Challenger).
Proven ability to build executive relationships and articulate ROI and business value to senior, non-technical buyers.
Consistent history of meeting or exceeding quota and accurately forecasting in a CRM such as Salesforce.
Excellent communication, presentation, and negotiation skills, with the discipline to manage many concurrent opportunities.
Demonstrated ability to use AI tools as part of your daily routine to improve personal efficiency and the overall productivity of your territory.
Willingness to travel up to 70% across the territory.
Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.

Additional Preferences

Familiarity with project and portfolio management (PPM) software or the PPM/PMO buyer landscape.
Experience selling configurable or no-code/low-code platforms, or solutions involving cross-company / supplier collaboration.

German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish-language abilities is a plus but not required.

Testimonials

I decided to join cplace in 2022 after working for almost ten years as a key account manager in a large, international IT company. I was particularly attracted by the idea of contributing my know-how and experience to this young and up-and-coming company. At the same time, I was very impressed by cplace's customer portfolio, which includes some of the best-known companies in the DAX-40. What potential! And that's also what I enjoy every day and what I consider "success": to use the incredible energy, creativity and speed of each individual here to develop solutions for our customers that inspire them. Seeing this spark ignite is unique!

I have been a part of the cplace family since the end of 2020 and I love working with our product. I am particularly fascinated by the continuous development of cplace. Even after more than two years, I haven't stopped learning and I still encounter new product elements and customer solutions. On this journey, I really enjoy working as part of a team and getting new enterprise customers across departments excited about us. It's incredible to accompany their development from prospect to true cplace evangelists! In my team, we are always open to new things along the way and see our lessons learned as the foundation for the next evolutionary stage of our success.

I've been part of the Sales Team at cplace since September 2018. In the beginning there were only two of us, now there are 15 of us - what a growth story! Together, we manage to beat out well-known competitors in tenders and win exciting enterprise customers. What I like most about my job is that I can accompany cplace as a growing company on its journey and really get involved. Every day is different and brings new challenges, and the #bestteam is always there to help and advise. We are a colorful bunch and always have a lot to laugh about - everyone is individual and special. We are united by a common goal, which we pursue with great fun in our work.
