the team ramp quickly and perform consistently Collaborate cross-functionally with CS, Product, and Legal to ensure smooth handoffs and strong retention in the commercial segment Identify expansion opportunities within the existing commercial customer base and coach AEs to grow accounts over time Represent Vercel at EMEA industry events, developer conferences, and customer-facing engagements About You: 3+ years of sales leadership experience in a SaaS or technical software environment, with a strong track record managing high-velocity commercial or mid-market teams Proven ability to hire, ramp, and develop commercial AEs in a competitive market Deep understanding of commercial sales motions - you know how to run a tight pipeline, coach on qualification, and keep deal velocity high without sacrificing quality Experience selling into engineering, product, or technical leadership at scaling or growth-stage companies Data-driven approach to running a team - you use metrics to identify coaching opportunities, forecast accurately, and iterate on process Hands-on leader who is comfortable being in deals, on calls, and in the weeds when your team needs it Fluency in English required; additional European language skills (French, German, Italian, Spanish and Arabic) are a strong plus given the EMEA scope Familiarity with developer tooling, frontend infrastructure, or cloud platforms is a significant advantage Familiarity with Vercel, Next.js, or the modern web development ecosystem is a plus Based in London

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
