• Build and maintain a strong pipeline aligned with revenue objectives
• Lead consultative sales engagements

• Engage senior stakeholders in conversations around automation, AI, and operational transformation
• Position SS&C Blue Prism solutions as part of broader enterprise automation and digital workforce strategies
• Help organizations explore how AI-driven automation and emerging agentic capabilities can enhance efficiency and decision-making

• Establish trusted relationships with executives and senior decision-makers across the insurance sector
• Engage stakeholders across business, operations, transformation, and technology functions

• Navigate procurement, legal, and regulatory considerations common in Financial Services
• Maintain accurate pipeline management and forecasting
• Work effectively within a partner ecosystem: Collaborate with system integrators, consulting partners, and transformation specialists
• Work closely with internal teams including pre-sales, delivery, and customer success
• Share market insights and customer feedback with the wider Financial Services team
• Support the development of strategic initiatives and go-to-market programs across Europe
