Engine by Starling, was born out of Starling: the UK’s first and leading digital bank. Today, Starling delivers intuitive, customer-centric tools to help over 4.6 million people and small businesses to be ‘good with money’. We believe that great technology has the ability to empower customers to save, spend and manage their money in a new and transformative way. Engine is on a mission to promote this philosophy around the world.
Engine is a cloud-native, bank-built SaaS platform. We provide a comprehensive and cloud-native solution to power banks around the world, who share our ambition of building businesses designed to evolve, innovate, and meet growing customer demands.
The SaaS technology platform is now available to banks, building societies and credit unions around the world, enabling them to benefit from the modern digital features and efficient back-office processes that has helped Starling to achieve its success.
At Engine, we follow five guiding principles: listen, keep it simple, do the right thing, own it, and aim for greatness. Having launched in 2022, we are a rapidly-growing organisation who adopts the same agile mindset as our technology. As such, we embrace change, the reimagination of processes and have cultivated an environment where our colleagues - and partners - can design, build and collaborate openly, with a strong degree of ownership and empowerment to get things done.
Hybrid Working
Engine is headquartered in London, with offices in Dublin, Sydney, Dubai, Toronto and New York. This role will be based in London.
We have a hybrid approach to working at Engine - our preference is that you’re located within a commutable distance of London (Liverpool Street) to enable in-person collaboration and interaction with your team.
International travel will be necessary on an ad hoc basis, depending on the client and nature of the engagement.
About the Role
The role offers the opportunity to own, manage and lead a European sub-region, scaling Business Development with the support of a focused central team. As the Sales Lead in Europe, you will be responsible for cultivating relationships at an executive level, overseeing client and partner engagements - including Discovery exercises and seeing programmes through to completion.
This position also encompasses the opportunity to become a Client Relationship Director for Engine’s clients within the region, acting as a trusted advisor, partner and executive sponsor, ensuring their needs are heard and fulfilled during both Implementation and Run phases.
Our ambition is to build autonomous, highly-skilled teams, with a deep understanding of the local market, across the Nordics, Southern Europe and Central Eastern Europe. While you will drive deal execution within a defined European cluster, you will apply the central European value proposition and sales playbook consistently.
