Why this role exists

  • Lead full enterprise sales cycles from initial engagement to close
  • Engage C-level, operational, and technical stakeholders
  • Drive value-led, consultative sales conversations
  • Collaborate with BDRs, Pre-Sales, and Customer teams

Ultimo operates like a scale-up inside a serious enterprise software business:

  • High ownership and autonomy

  • Expectation to take initiative and drive outcomes
