About the Role
We are seeking a high performing Enterprise Account Executive to drive new logo acquisition for the WGSN Intelligence API.

Technical & Consultative Selling: Lead end-to-end sales cycles for complex, high-value API integrations. Conduct deep consultative discovery to map WGSN API capabilities directly to client technical architectures and business cases.
•
Deal Ownership & Orchestration: Direct the complete sales process from origination to signature. Strategically pull in internal technical specialists only when needed for deep scoping.
•
IP Protection & Commercial Discipline: Structure deals within established pricing and legal guardrails, ensuring strict protection of WGSN’s intellectual property, training-data exclusions, and brand attribution.
•
Pipeline & Forecast Management: Maintain accurate forecasting, deal stage hygiene, and pipeline coverage metrics.

•
Expert at navigating complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise environments across technical, product, and commercial business units.
•
Strong qualification discipline; ability to identify non-viable deals early and protect IP standards without compromising revenue goals.
