About RudderStack
RudderStack helps companies build on top of their own data. Our warehouse-native Customer Data Platform enables engineering, data, and AI teams to collect, unify, govern, and activate customer data while maintaining full ownership and control. By running directly on top of the customer's cloud data warehouse or lakehouse, RudderStack reduces data movement, improves governance, lowers infrastructure costs, and accelerates modern data and AI initiatives.
Leading companies including Lovable, Jaguar Land Rover, and Foot Locker trust RudderStack to power mission-critical customer data infrastructure.
We're now in the middle of one of the most significant shifts in the company's history: evolving from the industry's leading warehouse-native CDP into a fully Agentic CDP built for the AI era — a platform that doesn't just collect and activate customer data, but reasons over it and takes action on our customers' behalf. EMEA is a critical part of that next chapter, and this hire will help define it.
About the Role
We're hiring an Enterprise Account Executive to own and build our entire EMEA region. You'll be RudderStack's sales lead across Europe from day one: responsible for customers of every size, with the majority of your focus on driving and closing Enterprise opportunities.
This is a rare, ground-floor opportunity: you'll shape territory strategy, prioritize verticals, and help build the regional go-to-market motion largely from scratch, rather than inheriting an established playbook. You'll report directly to RudderStack's EMEA Regional MD, working side by side on regional strategy and receiving hands-on coaching and mentorship as you ramp and grow the business. As the region scales, this role has a clear path to expanding in scope, including building and leading a team.
You'll partner with technical and business buyers across Engineering, Data, Analytics, Platform, and AI organizations, and work cross-functionally with Sales Engineering, SDRs, Marketing, Customer Success, and Product to help customers modernize their customer data infrastructure and adopt the next generation of AI-powered, agentic applications.
Why This Role
- Ground-floor ownership — you'll be the face of RudderStack across EMEA, with the autonomy to build the region your way.
- A pivotal product moment — join as we expand from the leading warehouse-native CDP into a full Agentic CDP for the AI era, and help bring that story to market from the start.
- Direct mentorship — work closely with, and report directly to, RudderStack's EMEA Regional MD, with hands-on support through every stage of the sales cycle.
- Room to grow — a clear path to expanding scope and building a team as the region scales.
What You'll Do
- Own the full EMEA go-to-market: build and manage a territory spanning all customer segments, with a majority focus on Enterprise-level opportunities.
- Develop and execute territory and account plans in close partnership with the EMEA Regional MD, shaping regional strategy and prioritization.
- Build trusted relationships with executive and technical stakeholders across Engineering, Data, Analytics, Platform, Digital, and AI teams.
- Lead complex, multi-threaded sales cycles from prospecting through negotiation and close, consistently achieving or exceeding revenue targets.
- Present the business and technical value of RudderStack including our evolution to an Agentic CDP to both executive and technical audiences.
- Partner with SDRs and Marketing to generate pipeline while proactively sourcing new opportunities.
- Collaborate with Solutions Engineering, Customer Success, Product, and Marketing to deliver an exceptional customer experience.
- Apply MEDDPICC to effectively qualify, manage, and forecast opportunities, maintaining accurate pipeline management within CRM.
- Stay current on trends across AI, agentic systems, cloud data platforms, and the modern data and martech stack.
- Serve as the voice of the EMEA market sharing customer and competitive insights that influence product strategy and global go-to-market execution.
What We're Looking For
- Strong track record of closing Enterprise SaaS deals, with demonstrated success consistently exceeding quota in complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales environments.
- Experience selling technical software into the data space — e.g., data infrastructure, cloud data platforms, analytics, or customer data platforms — and/or the broader martech ecosystem (e.g., Braze, mParticle, Segment, Iterable, Twilio Engage) strongly preferred.
- Experience selling AI or agentic software solutions, and comfort articulating an AI-native value proposition to both technical and business buyers, strongly preferred.
- Comfortable operating as a senior, self-sufficient rep building out a region — entrepreneurial, resourceful, and effective without an established local playbook.
- Experience managing multiple stakeholders and long enterprise buying cycles, with strong account planning and territory management skills.
- Working knowledge of MEDDPICC and experience applying it throughout the sales process.
- Excellent communication, presentation, negotiation, and executive relationship-building skills.
- Self-starter who thrives in a collaborative, fast-moving environment and is energized by building something new.
