Founding Strategic Account Executive for Iberia responsible for 8-12 of the largest strategic accounts across Spain and/or Portugal, building both business cases and technical wins, driving land-and-expand strategy, and shaping the Iberia go-to-market from the ground up.
Responsibilities
- Manage a portfolio of 8-12 top strategic accounts in Spain and/or Portugal
- Generate your own pipeline — Cresta drives strong inbound, but Strategic AEs are expected to self-source roughly 50% of pipeline
- Orchestrate complex, multi-level sales cycles (6-18 months) across buying committees, procurement, legal, and security
- Build the business case and the technical win in partnership with your Solutions Consultant and extended team
- Drive land-and-expand strategy with a long-term vision for each account, while continuing to prioritize new-logo acquisition

- Verified track record closing deals of €500K+ ARR / €1M+ TCV, including at least one deal exceeding €1M TCV at an IBEX35-caliber account
- New-logo hunting as your primary motion — majority of attainment historically from net-new logos rather than installed-base expansion
- Experience navigating complex 6-18 month cycles, including RFPs, buying committees, and procurement/legal/security review in regulated industries
- Existing C-level/VP network within Spanish enterprise accounts
