About Dust
Work is being rewritten, and the people holding the pen are the ones who actually run it.
With enterprise-grade governance, flexible model choice, and a collaborative interface for humans and agents to work together, Dust empowers AI Operators at the world’s fastest-moving companies to rewire how work gets done.
With 70%+ weekly active users, people stick with Dust as much as they do with Slack and Notion. We don't get piloted and shelved. We land once, and spread. We're at an exciting stage of our journey, and growing fast.
We're serving great customers like Datadog, 1Password, Cursor, Clay, Vanta and Persona, and aim to x5 our growth by the end of 2026.
Dust is backed by Sequoia with a determined team of optimists (coming from Stripe, OpenAI, and Stanford) who like to focus on users, ship fast, and don't take themselves too seriously while doing so. The Generalist named us among the Future 50.
Summary
We're expanding into the UK and Ireland, and this is the role that makes it real. As an early Account Executive in the region, you'll own the full sales cycle across fintech, financial services, and B2B SaaS — landing net-new logos and building the GTM motion from the ground up. You'll work alongside a dedicated Solutions Engineer and BDR, but this is a builder role: you'll shape how Dust sells in this market, not inherit a finished playbook. If you want a career-defining opportunity to open a market for a product you believe in, this is it.
What you'll do
Own UK & Ireland revenue
Drive net-new logo acquisition across fintech, financial services, and B2B SaaS — hitting $250K/quarter ramping to full quota by Q3
Self-generate pipeline when BDR-sourced pipe is thin; attend events and customer workshops to build presence and create opportunities
Convert pilots to closed contracts at a ~65% rate, managing deal cycles end-to-end without heavy support infrastructure
Run a consultative, insight-led sales motion
Lead discovery calls that surface genuine workflow pain and connect it credibly to Dust's platform capabilities
Navigate multi-stakeholder buying processes — including technical buyers (VP Eng, CTO, Head of Data) and business stakeholders across CS, RevOps, and Finance
Partner with Solutions Engineers to deliver compelling, tailored demos that turn sceptics into believers
Build the UK playbook
Work with management to shape the regional GTM motion — what ICPs convert, what messaging lands, what the buying journey looks like in the UK market
Collaborate closely with the GTM team to refine outbound targeting and sequencing based on what you're seeing in the field
Feed market intelligence back to the broader sales and product teams to inform how Dust evolves
Sell credibly into AI-forward buyers
Position Dust's platform with conviction to technical and business decision-makers who are actively building AI strategies
Engage meaningfully on how AI is reshaping how companies operate — not just as a vendor, but as a practitioner who uses Dust yourself
Help prospects understand the difference between Dust and point solutions or build-your-own approaches
Show up as a multiplier
Work closely with the broader sales, marketing and product teams by sharing context, feedback, and what you're learning from the market
Contribute to a nascent UK team culture — the way you operate will shape what the regional team looks like as it grows
Requirements
Every candidate and employee's success is measured against the same 3 dimensions. Aptitude, Attitude and Agency.
Aptitude
Track record of closing mid-market deals across multi-stakeholder buying committees in B2B SaaS or technical software — you can articulate exactly how you won, not just that you did
Proven ability to sell to technical buyers and translate complex product capability into clear business outcomes for non-technical stakeholders
Strong outbound instincts — you can identify the right accounts, build compelling and personalised messaging, and open doors without heavy SDR coverage
History of consistent quota attainment in lean, low-infrastructure environments where you built the motion rather than executed against a mature playbook
Genuine AI fluency — you actively use AI tools in your own workflow and can speak credibly to how AI is reshaping operations across the verticals you'll be selling into
Attitude
Energised by ambiguity — building a new market from scratch excites you more than executing against a finished playbook
Makes the people around them better — you collaborate generously with SE and BDR, share what you learn, and create lift for the team without ego
Gives and receives direct feedback; surfaces problems early rather than letting them compound quietly
Goes deep on customers, their industries, and their specific pain — curiosity is your competitive advantage
Believes in the mission and it shows — you sell with conviction because you use Dust and understand what it does
Agency
Defines your role in outcomes, not tasks — you own UK revenue growth, not a list of responsibilities
Self-generates pipeline and invents new approaches when existing channels are insufficient, without waiting to be told
Drives deals end-to-end without escalation or hand-holding — from first touch to closed contract, you own the path
Spots gaps in the UK GTM motion and proposes solutions proactively rather than flagging problems upward
Shows up to this process with initiative — you've researched Dust, used the product, and come with ideas, not just questions
Location
We're prioritizing building our team with an in-person culture at our offices in Paris, London, San Francisco, and New York because we value the magic that happens when talented people work closely together.
We have an office-first culture. Some of the best things about building at Dust are the energy, the fast decisions, and the unexpected conversations that unlock a hard problem, which happen because we are in the same room. Being together is not a formality, it is how we do our best work, and it is something we actively protect.
That said, we hire people with strong judgement and we extend that trust to how they manage their time. When working from home makes more sense for what you need to get done that day, we trust you to make that call.
Why Dust
The models are powerful enough. What's missing is the product layer where AI meets how companies actually work. That's what we're building: the infrastructure that lets any team turn scattered knowledge and tools into coordinated execution with agents they build, own, and run themselves.
We use Dust ourselves every day. We get to shape how humans and agents collaborate while solving our own problems with the product we ship. That loop is rare, and it's why we move fast.
If you're excited about defining a new category and want to join a determined team of optimists who focus on users, ship fast, and don't take themselves too seriously, we'd love to talk.
Even if you don't check every box in our requirements, we encourage you to apply. We value diverse perspectives and backgrounds, and we're more interested in your potential and passion than a perfect match to our checklist.
