Regional Sales Executive -UK

• A demonstrable track record of overachievement in new business enterprise sales, ideally within data storage, data infrastructure, cloud, AI/ML or adjacent enterprise technology.

• The commercial and technical fluency to hold a credible conversation with senior technical buyers about performance, scale and AI workloads.
• Strong territory and account planning discipline, with accurate forecasting.
• Comfort operating in a fast-moving, high-growth environment where you'll help build as much as sell.

• Established relationships within the UK enterprise and/or partner ecosystem are a strong advantage.
• Experience selling into AI, HPC, research, financial services or public sector accounts.
• A working understanding of the modern data / AI infrastructure landscape and its key players.
• Existing channel relationships with major UK resellers and integrators.

About VAST Data

VAST Data is one of the fastest-growing infrastructure companies in the world, building the data platform at the heart of the AI era. By collapsing the traditional trade-offs between performance, capacity and cost, VAST enables organisations to run their most demanding AI, analytics and high-performance workloads on a single, unified platform — at exabyte scale. We work with enterprises, research institutions, cloud providers and government bodies who are reimagining what their data can do.

This is a rare opportunity to sell a genuinely differentiated technology into a market that is expanding faster than almost any other.

The Role

We're looking for a driven, high-calibre new business hunter to win net-new enterprise logos across the UK. This is a pure new-logo role for someone who thrives on opening doors, running complex sales cycles from first meeting to signature, and building a territory from the front foot. You'll be selling a category-defining platform to technical and executive buyers who are actively investing in AI and data infrastructure.

You will own your patch end to end: pipeline generation, qualification, stakeholder mapping, commercial negotiation and close — supported by a strong pre-sales, channel and marketing engine.

Why VAST

• A category-defining product in one of the highest-growth segments in technology.
• The chance to build a territory and make an outsized, visible impact.
• A strong pre-sales, channel and marketing engine behind you.

• Identify, target and win net-new enterprise accounts across your UK territory, consistently building and progressing a healthy pipeline of 3–4x quota.
• Run complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles, engaging technical buyers (CTO, Head of AI/ML, HPC and infrastructure leaders) and economic buyers (CIO, CFO) alike.
• Develop and execute a clear territory and account plan, prioritising the accounts where VAST's differentiation is most compelling.
• Partner closely with pre-sales / systems engineering to shape technical wins, and with the channel and alliances team to extend reach through partners (Dell, CDW, NTT and others).
• Lead commercial negotiations through to close, managing forecasting and deal hygiene accurately within the CRM.
• Act as a credible, consultative voice for customers navigating AI and data-infrastructure decisions — becoming a trusted advisor rather than a vendor.
• Represent VAST at industry and partner events across the territory.
