This empowers enterprises to create and maintain secure, high-quality, and innovative software  founders of Nexus Repository and stewards of Maven Central—the world’s largest repository of Java open-source software—our expertise is unmatched, and our commitment to helping organisations build faster, safer software is unwavering.

More than 2,000 organisations, including 70% of the Fortune 100 and 15 million software developers, rely on Sonatype to optimise their software supply chains.

This is a pure net-new logo hunting role. You will own a curated portfolio of the top enterprise accounts in the region focused on FSI. Many of these accounts are greenfield. Others are former customers we intend to win back. You are expected to develop account-specific strategies, build multi-threaded relationships, and deliver large-scale new business revenue.

• Be Bold & Lead:
  You will target organizations that have previously said “no” or chosen a competitor. You will challenge their status quo and show them why Sonatype’s proactive protection is the only viable path forward.
• Orchestrate 7-Figure Wins:
  You will manage complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles from cold outreach to signature, navigating the C‑Suite of Europe’s largest enterprises.
• Win Back Market Share:
  You will identify gaps in competitor delivery within key accounts and position Sonatype’s platform to displace incumbents.
• Own Your Business:
  You act as the CEO of your territory ("Lone Wolf" autonomy with "Pack" support). You set the strategy, you build the relationships, and you are accountable for the results.
• Collaborate:
  You will work lock‑step with a dedicated Solutions Engineer (SE) to deliver the technical win, while you own the commercial strategy entirely.

• Elite Deal
  
  Experience:
  
  Proven track record of closing 7‑figure software deals in the Enterprise Software, Dev Sec Ops , or App Sec space.
• Mandatory Industry DNA:
  You must come from our industry. We require a proven background in selling Application Security (App Sec), Dev Sec Ops , or Software Supply Chain Security technology. You need to understand the nuance of selling to CISO and Engineering leadership—general SaaS experience is not enough for this role.
• Turnaround Tenacity:
  Experience displacing competitors or winning back “lost” customers. You don't need marketing air cover to book a meeting.
• Strategic Patience:
  The ability to map complex organisations and manage 6–12 month sales cycles while delivering short-term wins (“alternating at speed”) in the first 90 days.
• Deep domain expertise within the Financial Services Industry (FSI), including an understanding of regulatory frameworks.

Customers at Our Core: We obsess over creating customer value, not just satisfaction. Whether you’re building solutions, driving engagement, or refining process, you’ll use data, feedback, and empathy to help our customers achieve lasting success.

Be Bold & Lead: We challenge the status quo, take smart risks, and set the pace for our industry. You’ll be empowered to act like an owner, speak up with conviction, and lead through innovation shaping the future of secure software development.
