Sales Director
Banking, Financial or Insurance Services (New Logo)
Slough | London | Hybrid
IntaPeople are pleased to be appointed to recruit two Sales Directors for a fast-growing global IT services business that helps banks and financial institutions modernise their technology through onsite and offshore delivery. These newly created positions will be focused purely on winning new logos across the UK, including some of the country's largest banks and insurance firms.
The business is looking for a proven hunter from an IT services or consultancy background, with strong experience selling into banking and financial services. Candidates do not need to come from a bank. What matters is a track record of opening new accounts and the existing relationships to start conversations from day one.
This is a senior, hands-on individual contributor role reporting directly to the VP for the region. You will have full pre-sales, solutioning and delivery support behind you, allowing you to focus entirely on winning.
Key responsibilities at a glance (further candidate pack available on request):
- New Logo Acquisition: Identify, target and win new banking and financial services clients across the UK, including tier one banks.

- Solution Shaping: Work with pre-sales and delivery teams to shape commercially sound onsite/offshore proposals.
- Pipeline & Forecasting: Build and manage your own pipeline, reporting accurately to the regional VP.
- Account Growth: Develop each new client into a long-term account with repeat business.
Experience (at a glance):
- 10+ years' sales experience within IT services or IT consultancy organisations.

- Strong commercial skills across pricing, negotiation and complex contracts.
- A stable career history, with the tenure to see deals through to revenue.
