The Role

As a Strategic Account Executive at Gridsight, you own the commercial future of a slice of the ANZ market end to end: winning the networks we haven't yet, and growing the largest and most strategic ones we have.

This is a genuine sales role, built for a hunter. You'll chase and close some of the largest, most consequential deals in the Australian energy sector. These are multi-million-dollar, multi-year subscriptions that put entire grid modernisation programs on our platform. And you'll grow the customers you own all the way to our full product suite, from visibility into connections and orchestration.

You'll work alongside our Customer Solutions Engineers, who own delivery, and our Power Engineers, who bring deep electrical and grid-domain expertise. When a network's executives or engineers want to go deep, you'll have the technical firepower in the room to back you. You'll report to the ANZ General Manager and sit at the heart of our ANZ commercial team.

What you'll do

Win new logos

- Own the full sales cycle for the networks we haven't yet signed: prospecting, discovery, business case, proposal, negotiation and close, with ACVs in the millions.
- Build and run account plans to break into the largest remaining networks in the market.
- Get in front of the right executives early, and earn the credibility to be the person they call, trust and rely upon.

Expand existing customers to full suite

- Move the customers you own up the product suite, from visibility into connections and orchestration, identifying, scoping and closing expansion as their needs grow.




- Build the commercial case for the next investment, working with Customer Solutions Engineers and Power Engineers to surface the value we're already delivering and turn it into the next deal.
- Treat every account as a growth target, not a renewal to defend. You're measured on what you add; retaining customers is table stakes.

Lead the account

- Set the strategic direction for each account: what success looks like, what has to happen to get there, and how Gridsight positions itself for the long term.
- Own and develop trusted relationships with key stakeholders across your accounts, including execs, senior operational leaders and procurement.
- Run Quarterly Business Reviews that go beyond status updates: reinforce value delivered, surface emerging challenges, and position Gridsight as a long-term transformation partner.
- Connect what's happening on the ground to what the economic buyer cares about, translating technical progress into commercial language that resonates.

What you'll bring

- 6+ years in enterprise or strategic sales, including a genuine track record of winning net-current business, ideally in SaaS, enterprise technology or complex B2B.
- Demonstrated success owning the full cycle on large,



multi-stakeholder deals (from prospecting through to close), as well as growing existing accounts.
- Experience navigating complex buying environments involving executives, technical users and procurement.
- A pattern of high performance over time. Not a one-off big year, but a consistent record of exceeding what's expected of you.
- Exposure to the Australian energy sector, utilities or regulated industries is valuable but not essential. The curiosity and drive to learn it fast is.

Who you are

- Hungry. You want to win, you chase deals others would wait on, and you measure yourself by outcomes, not activity.
- Commercially sharp. You spot an opportunity in a conversation, build a compelling business case, and lead a negotiation with confidence.
- Strategically credible. You can hold your own with a network COO or GM, not by knowing more about the grid than they do, but by being sharp, curious, and genuinely useful to them.
- Relentlessly curious. You dig into how our customers' world actually works. You ask excellent questions, and you never stop learning the domain.
- Resilient. Utility sales cycles are long and non-linear. You keep momentum, manage your pipeline, and don't lose the plot when a deal goes quiet.
- Self-directed. You create your own structure and clarity. You always know where your risks and opportunities sit, and you don't need someone to build the system for you.
- A clear communicator. Whether you're running a QBR with a network GM or aligning internally with a Customer Solutions Engineer, you co
