Job Description
Most enterprise sales roles want you to win accounts. This one expects you to build a business.
Ingenio is partnering with a high-growth, AI-native digital engineering consultancy to hire a Client Director in Ireland.
This is a true strategic enterprise services sales role, combining 50% new business development with 50% enterprise account growth and expansion.
You’ll be responsible for building new enterprise relationships while also growing and deepening existing strategic accounts across Ireland.
Think less transactional sales, more long-term services portfolio ownership.
You’ll operate like a mini CEO — building trusted enterprise partnerships capable of generating €10m+ in services revenue over time.
But unlike SaaS or product sales, you are not selling software.
You are selling engineering teams, consulting capability, and transformation delivery outcomes.
The opportunity:
You’ll work with senior enterprise clients navigating:
• AI transformation programmes
• Digital platform modernisation
• Cloud and data modernisation
• Software and product engineering at scale
• Legacy system replacement and integration through services-led delivery
Mandatory requirements (non-negotiable):
• Proven track record of owning a 50/50 split between new business acquisition and account growth in enterprise sales roles
• Experience selling consulting or professional services (not SaaS), including digital, cloud, data, AI, or engineering transformation services
• Current or recent experience selling into enterprise organisations on complex AI, data, digital, or systems transformation programmes
What this is NOT: (This is not suitable for candidates who have only sold)
• SaaS / software products (even enterprise SaaS)
• Telecoms / carrier / voice solutions
• Pure pre-sales or solution engineering roles
• Delivery-only consulting roles without quota responsibility
• Account management roles without new business ownership
Ideal background: (You’ve likely sold)
• Technology consulting
• Product engineering services
• Digital transformation
• Cloud, AI or data solutions
Why this role stands out:
✔ Genuine 50/50 new business and strategic account growth
✔ Build €10m+ enterprise services portfolios
✔ High autonomy and ownership (mini CEO model)
✔ Strong existing delivery capability behind you
✔ High-growth AI-led consulting proposition
✔ Significant earning potential
€150k base + highly attractive commission structure
