Client Director - USA
We are hiring a Client Director to open new enterprise logos across North America. This is a complex, consultative sales role for someone who thrives on navigating large organisations.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Basis Technologies is at an inflection point. PE-backed, Great Place to Work certified, and having recently launched Klario, our next-generation Intelligent Change Management platform, we are building the commercial team that will take us from category challenger to category leader in the SAP ecosystem.
We are hiring a Client Director to open new enterprise logos across North America. This is a complex, consultative sales role for someone who thrives on navigating large organisations, building multi-threaded executive relationships, and closing meaningful deals. Not managing accounts or working transactional pipelines.
You will report directly into the Regional Sales Director and have genuine ownership of your territory: your industry plan, your prospecting motion, your pipeline, and your quota. The internal infrastructure to support you (pre-sales, marketing, BDR, partner channels) is in place. What we need is the seller who can bring it all together.
IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL
Drive the full enterprise sales cycle
Own every stage from initial prospecting through to close, coordinating internal stakeholders throughout. You will apply a value-driven, consultative methodology that matches the complexity of the environments you are selling into.
Own your territory and industry plan
Develop and maintain a clear industry plan that maps how you will achieve your targets, by account, by vertical, by quarter. You are accountable for your pipeline and your number. The Sales Director will support; they will not carry it for you.
Prospect and close new enterprise logos
This is a new logo role. You will be building relationships with companies that have not yet seen the value of Intelligent Change Management, which means you need to be comfortable operating without a warm inbound pipeline and confident enough in the narrative to create demand from cold.
Work the SAP ecosystem intelligently
Basis Technologies is an SAP PartnerEdge Build partner, listed on both Microsoft Azure and AWS marketplaces. The SAP community is a network, and the best sellers in this market know how to use it. SAP account teams, system integrators, user groups, and partner events are all legitimate pipeline channels alongside direct outbound.
Collaborate across the commercial team
Work closely with pre-sales on discovery calls, presentations, and product demonstrations. Partner with the Marketing and BDR teams to build pipeline and coordinate account-based programs for your priority targets. Execution here is a team sport, but accountability is individual.
Keep the data clean and the reporting honest
Maintain accurate records in Salesforce: interactions, pipeline status, deal progression. Weekly reporting is a genuine accountability mechanism, not a box-ticking exercise. If a deal is moving slowly, we want to know early.
Stay sharp on the product and the market
Attend regular training on our software and the SAP ecosystem. The ICM narrative is specific, and the sales cycle rewards genuine product knowledge. This is a market where credibility matters, candidates will respect you more if you know the domain.
IS THIS OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU?
We are looking for an enterprise seller with genuine complexity in their track record: not someone who has managed accounts or worked short sales cycles. These are the non-negotiables:
Demonstrable experience selling complex technical solutions into enterprise organisations: multi-stakeholder, multi-month, high-value
A track record of opening new logos: not just managing or growing existing accounts
A strong, repeatable sales methodology: you know how you approach discovery, qualification, multi-threading, and value generation, and you can describe it clearly
Experience in ERP, enterprise software, or adjacent technology: you understand the buying environment, the stakeholders, and the sales dynamics
The ability to operate with composure in a fast-moving, changing environment: scale-ups are not enterprise companies, priorities shift, and execution matters more than process
Cross-functional fluency: you know how to work with pre-sales, marketing, and leadership to maximise your effectiveness without creating noise
Desirable: not required, but will give you a head start:
Experience in the SAP ecosystem: selling SAP solutions, working for an SAP partner, or selling into SAP-run businesses
Experience selling into Manufacturing, Oil & Gas, Retail, Public Sector, or Aerospace & Defence: the verticals where SAP runs deepest and Basis has the strongest reference base
Experience working at an SAP ISV, Solex partner, or in the broader SAP third-party software market
Experience in a start-up or scale-up environment: and a genuine preference for it over large enterprise
WHAT WE DO
We enable every SAP-run business to manage change intelligently, no matter how complex their technology landscape. Our suite of Intelligent Change Management (ICM) solutions harnesses the collective intelligence of the SAP community to help business and technology change teams explore, plan, and execute business change with confidence.
Making changes to large, interconnected SAP systems is genuinely risky. Done badly, it causes operational disruption, lost revenue, and reputational damage. Basis Technologies eliminates that risk: predicting failure points, automating change management, and giving change teams the visibility they need to move quickly without breaking things.
For over 25 years, we have helped equip, liberate, and champion SAP change heroes at global leaders including P&G, Honda, Kimberly Clark, 3M, Britvic, and Diageo.
WHO WE ARE
We are approximately 150 people, UK-headquartered with teams in the US and Budapest. PE-backed by Scottish Equity Partners, we are at the point in our growth where the foundations are in place and the opportunity is to scale with purpose, and without losing what makes this place work.
We have been officially named one of the US's Best Workplaces by Great Place to Work. That is not a culture-deck claim. It reflects how we actually operate: cross-functionally, with real individual accountability, and with genuine care for the people here.
For a sales hire specifically: your work is visible, your wins are recognised, and the leadership team is accessible. There is no bureaucracy between you and the people who make decisions. If you have something to say, you can say it.
