Role brief

Growth Roles summary, based on the employer's posting.

What you'll do

  • Run the regional executive briefing network and deepen ties with major customers and prospects
  • Lead executive meetings, briefings, roadshows, and multi-day regional trips from planning through handoff
  • Find new customer opportunities across sub-regions, industries, and market-entry strategies
  • Carry partner and customer relationships through planning, pipeline creation, and account-team support
  • Build regional connections with partners, customers, and other stakeholders that support growth

What you bring

  • At least twelve years in business development, venture capital, or sales
  • A record of delivering goals in ambiguous settings without an established playbook
  • Direct customer work, cross-functional execution, and clear evidence of taking initiative
  • Strong communication and executive presence, with familiarity in developer tools and current AI trends

Who this fits

This suits a senior individual contributor who can turn executive relationships into qualified pipeline and operate without much structure. You’ll work onsite in London and should be comfortable owning work personally rather than managing through a team.

From the employer

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

About the Role

SpaceXAI's Business Development team drives our alternative routes to market: executive briefings, investor-convened roadshows, and zero-to-one market entry. This motion has opened enterprise markets across continents, converting executive access into qualified pipeline at a measured, proven rate.

We're looking for a Regional Vice President of Business Development to accelerate this motion in your region, working closely with our go-to-market leaders, customers, and partners to turn executive relationships into sourced pipeline for the account and partnership teams who carry those relationships forward.

What You'll Do:

  • Own our executive briefing network in-region. Build and maintain relationships across our largest customers and prospects.

  • Plan and lead executive engagement. Organize and facilitate meetings and multi-day trips for SpaceXAI's executives in-region, directly owning the relationship until an account owner is assigned.

  • Drive new market entry and intelligence. Identify sub-regions, industries, and strategies for net-new customer acquisition, and help establish our presence in them.

  • Execute our regional enterprise growth strategy. Manage relationships across the full partner and customer lifecycle — from planning trips and roadshows to supporting account executives through close.

  • Forge new relationships. Build connections with partners, customers, and stakeholders in the region that contribute to our growth.

You May Be a Fit If You:

  • 12+ years of experience in business development, venture capital, or sales

  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity, with a track record of hitting goals without a playbook

  • Have worked directly with customers and cross-functionally to get things done

  • Self-starter with clear evidence of professional initiative

  • Exceptional communicator with strong executive presence

  • Take pride in being a "super IC,” someone who does exceptional individual work

  • Familiar with the developer tooling ecosystem and current trends in AI
