We seek an experienced and driven Account Director to lead new business development in the Cloud and Content vertical. This role is pivotal to our growth strategy in Europe.
The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of the infrastructure market, be an experienced hunter, and demonstrate a proven track record in new business acquisition.
As the Account Director, you will leverage your network and expertise in the infrastructure landscape to identify, engage, and convert high-potential accounts into long-term clients. This position requires a proactive “hunter” mindset focused on pursuing and establishing relationships with Europe's largest consumers of infrastructure services. Based in Europe, you will be actively in the field, cultivating relationships and executing a sales strategy that accelerates our market footprint and drives significant revenue growth.
