Company Description

Zayo’s journey has been guided by an aspirational vision for connectivity. Our founders were veterans of the companies that constructed the earliest backbone of the Internet. They understood that truly putting “the world” on the World Wide Web would require connections, lots of them. Zayo Europe formed in 2012, became a standalone company in 2024 and are now a market leader in operating and managing fibre networks.

We seek an experienced and driven Account Director to lead new business development in the Cloud and Content vertical.

This role is pivotal to our growth strategy in Europe.

The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of the infrastructure market, be an experienced hunter, and demonstrate a proven track record in new business acquisition.

As the Account Director, you will leverage your network and expertise in the infrastructure landscape to identify, engage, and convert high-potential accounts into long-term clients. This position requires a proactive “hunter” mindset focused on pursuing and establishing relationships with Europe's largest consumers of infrastructure services. Based in Europe, you will be actively in the field, cultivating relationships and executing a sales strategy that accelerates our market footprint and drives significant revenue growth.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute a new business sales strategy focused on the infrastructure market.

• Identify and target high-value infrastructure consumers and accounts, driving growth in this newly established market.

• Leverage your understanding of the infrastructure market and your network to foster and convert business opportunities.

• Build and maintain robust relationships with decision-makers, positioning our solutions to meet their needs.

• Consistently achieve and exceed growth targets through a structured, solution-based sales approach.

Qualifications:

• Proven experience in infrastructure sales, with a strong network and understanding of the market.

• Demonstrated success in a new business-focused hunter sales role, ideally within the technology or infrastructure sector.

• Ability to operate autonomously and thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment focused on growth.

This role represents a unique opportunity to spearhead the growth of content and cloud clients, shaping our growth path and building relationships with industry-leading infrastructure consumers. If you are a motivated, strategic sales professional with a passion for new business and a deep connection to the infrastructure market, we invite you to apply.
