You'll actively explore, pilot, and implement AI-powered tools and strategies to enhance prospecting, personalization, forecasting, and overall sales efficiency.

- Demonstrated experience leading sales and go-to-market teams within a high growth, scale-up SaaS business in ANZ and APAC. You’ve led go-to-market transformation in areas like product led growth to sales led growth; horizontal solutions to industry focused solutions; and, importantly, small and medium business to true Enterprise sales and success.
- Knowledge of all aspects of go-to-market from marketing and demand generation to sales and partnerships to customer success and the leadership to ensure the teams work together as one.
