We are looking for a Leader to lead the EMEA small to medium and Mid market team and is based remotely in the UK. The Role This role leads the EMEA Small to medium and MidMarket business team and is accountable for new logo acquisition and expansion revenue across the region. The expectations are high: a team that generates its own pipeline across multiple countries, deals that are qualified with discipline, forecasts that hold, and Account Executives who improve every quarter. This is not an oversight role. The leader in this seat works deals alongside their team, sets the standard for outbound execution in each market, and uses data to drive performance. It is a first-line leader role who has already delivered results in EMEA and wants to operate at the pace and scale of a fast-growing company. Responsibilities Deal leadership - Engage directly in the team's most important opportunities: discovery, executive alignment, mutual close plans, commercial structure, procurement, legal, DPA, and security review. - Set the standard for value-based selling: quantifying the customer's business pain, building the business case, and tying Bitwarden to risk reduction and compliance outcomes that drive European buying decisions (GDPR, NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001).

- Diagnose and unblock stalled deals, and use them to raise the skill level of the entire team. Coach disciplined excellence and field skills to find, transition and close deals efficiently. - Work tirelessly in the detail of each customer requirement, enabled by experience and strategic effort, placing Bitwarden in the best position possible to win deals and transfer this knowledge to the team. - Drive accountability through metrics, motivation, method and effective communication techniques. Be accountable, methodical, pragmatic and foster by example lead from the front. Outbound pipeline generation - Build and mature a repeatable cold outbound motion with AEs and partnered SDRs, localized by market: territory and account prioritization, ICP and persona targeting, multi-threaded sequencing, and messaging adapted for country and language. - Set activity and pipeline-generation standards, inspect them weekly, and hold every AE accountable for self-sourced pipeline. - Align and drive our message with Marketing, Sales Development, and Channel on programs, including partner-sourced plays, that produce qualified pipeline at a predictable rate. MEDDPICC and value-based execution - Run MEDDPICC as the team's operating system across qualification, deal reviews, forecast calls, and win/loss analysis, with value-based selling defining how the team earns and proves each element. - Inspect every material opportunity for quantified Metrics, a validated Economic Buyer, a tested Champion, clear Decision Criteria and Process, a mapped Paper Process (including works council, procurement, and data-protection steps), and an honest read on Competition. - Deliver an accurate weekly forecast built on deal evidence and maintain CRM data the business can rely on. Data-driven coaching - Own the team's KPIs (pipeline generation, coverage, stage conversion, win rate, cycle length, average deal size, and activity-to-outcome ratios) by rep and by market, and act on what they show. - Identify where each AE is losing ground and build targeted coaching plans to close the gap.
