As Sales Director, Government (Nordics), based in our Denmark hub, you will cover central, regional, and municipal government entities across Denmark and Norway (excluding the dedicated defence and security departments).

- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Field Engineering, Marketing, Delivery, and Customer Success to guide clients smoothly from initial discovery to deployment.
- Partner & SI Engagement: Build and leverage partnerships with System Integrators (SIs), regional consulting partners, and cloud providers to accelerate market penetration.

## What you’ll bring

- Nordic Public Sector Expertise: Deep understanding of the public sector operational structures, buying processes, and procurement frameworks in Denmark and/or Norway.
- Established Relationships: A robust, active network of contacts within Danish and/or Norwegian government departments (e.g., tax authorities, social services, ministries).
- Enterprise Software Sales Track Record: Extensive experience in complex, high-value solution selling (such as AI, Big Data, Data Integrity, or Counter-Fraud solutions) directly to government clients.
- Consultative Mindset: Exceptional storytelling and advisory capabilities to help clients "solutionise" and see the immediate value of a sovereign Decision Intelligence platform.
- Language Skills: Fluency in Danish (or Norwegian) is essential, alongside professional English.
- Location: Must be based in, or willing to relocate to, Denmark (Copenhagen area).
