Our Purpose ecoPortal health and safety engagement software helps organisations amplify workplace safety. We give leaders the data they need to create awe-inspiring safety cultures that ignite their team’s potential. Engaged teams are the beating heart of industry-leading, odds-defying workplaces, and we’re committed to helping clients achieve that. Our mission is simple: create engaged cultures and healthier environments for all. Who are we? We’re a real tech success story, built from the ground up. We’re anchored by our commitment to championing people. That commitment begins from the ground up, with our own team. Our team culture is an organic creation built by our people, for our people. Differences are celebrated here, and we firmly believe that our diverse lived experiences work together to make us stronger as a whole. The Opportunity As an Enterprise Account Executive, you'll be one of the driving forces behind ecoPortal's expansion into the UK market — identifying, engaging, and winning enterprise customers who share our belief that safety culture is an enabler of organisational performance, not just a compliance obligation. This isn't a transactional sales role. You'll be working with Tier 1 enterprises — large, complex organisations with thousands of employees, multiple stakeholders, and long decision-making cycles. Your job is to understand their world deeply, uncover the challenges they're really facing, and demonstrate how ecoPortal solves them in ways that legacy providers can't. You'll use our diagnostic selling approach and hyper-personalised outreach to build genuine relationships with safety leaders, operations directors, IT teams, and C-suite executives. Every interaction should feel tailored, informed, and valuable — because it will be. You'll invest real time in understanding each account, crafting compelling narratives, and co-creating solutions alongside our Solutions Engineer. Reporting to the Country Manager UK, you'll work as part of a tightly integrated go-to-market team alongside the Solutions Engineer, UK Marketing Manager, and Customer delivery function. You'll carry a meaningful individual quota (£750,000 net new ARR), targeting approximately 4 enterprise deals per year — each one a genuine partnership, not just a contract.
