Enterprise Account Executive, EMEA
Description
Professional Services firms are under pressure to do more with less — faster delivery, better utilization, stronger margins, happier clients. Kantata is the leading cloud platform built to solve exactly that. Over 2,500 customers in 100+ countries use us to plan resources, manage projects, and unlock AI-driven insights that transform how they run their businesses.
We're scaling fast — well-funded, expanding globally, and investing heavily in AI and enterprise sales. If you love winning complex deals, opening new markets, and becoming a trusted advisor to executive buyers, we want to talk to you.
The Opportunity
This isn't a territory-maintenance role. You'll own a strategic Enterprise patch (1,000+ employee organizations) — hunting new opportunities, engaging C-level executives, and running full sales cycles from first call to close. You'll be backed by top-tier Solution Engineers, Customer Success, Marketing, and Executive Leadership, with real autonomy and real investment behind you.

- Expert partners — sell alongside Solution Engineers and leaders who know enterprise buying cycles and are invested in your success.
- A company built for the long haul — well-capitalized, growing, and investing in product, AI, and enterprise sales — not just defending market share.
