At Poka, we’re transforming how frontline teams operate, learn, and solve problems.
Our connected worker platform is purpose-built for manufacturing, empowering frontline workers to share knowledge, collaborate in real-time, and drive continuous improvement. Think of it as the missing digital link, bringing the human interface into the stack of the Smart Factory, generating the right data and insights that drive entirely new scales of process improvements.
We’re proud to support global leaders like Nestlé, Bosch, Mars, and Danone in their digital transformation journeys and as part of the IFS family, our reach and impact continue to grow globally.
Now, we're looking for an Enterprise Account Executive to join our established Sales team in Europe. We're growing fast and need a sharp, French-speaking Enterprise AE based in France who thrives on challenging the status quo. If you're ready to lead big conversations with some of Europe's biggest manufacturers and industrial operators, let's build something bold together.
What you'll be doing
- Own your territory. Build and manage a high-impact pipeline of enterprise manufacturing and industrial prospects across France and the wider European market. You'll own it — from prospecting to close.
- Lead with insight. Run the full enterprise sales cycle with precision and purpose. You'll guide multiple stakeholders through a consultative journey that maps their challenges to Poka's ROI solutions.
- Drive innovation. Bring fresh ideas to how we prospect, pitch, and win. You'll challenge old playbooks and help shape new tools, campaigns, and processes that raise our game.
- Work smarter with AI. Use AI tools to sharpen research, personalise outreach, and accelerate every stage of your sales motion — freeing you to spend more time where it counts: with customers.
- Collaborate to win. Partner closely with pre-sales, marketing, customer success, and product to deliver a seamless buyer journey and long-term customer value.
- Champion our story. Represent Poka at industry events, roundtables, and executive briefings — positioning us as a trusted advisor in the future of frontline work.
- Measure what matters. Track progress in Salesforce, forecast with accuracy, and contribute insights that shape our strategy and accelerate growth.
What you bring
- 5+ years of experience in enterprise B2B software solution sales, with a strong record of new business wins.
- Fluent French, with excellent verbal and written English — ready to negotiate at C-level in both.
- Deep familiarity with manufacturing, field service, or industrial operations through your consulting, sales, or even hands-on experience.
- Skilled at navigating long, complex sales cycles with multiple stakeholders and high deal values.
- Curiosity and comfort with AI tools in your daily workflow — you see them as an edge, not a novelty.
- Creative, curious, and comfortable in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
- Willing and able to travel across Europe (up to 40%).
