Senior Solutions Sales Executive roles at Diligent are open in London right now, offering a senior-level sales career in risk and audit tech with visa sponsorship considered case by case.

About the Role

Diligent is the company behind the governance, risk and compliance platform used by more than 1 million users and 700,000 board members worldwide. They’re hiring a Senior Solutions Sales Executive to sit inside their Risk & Audit team in London, working hand in hand with Account Executives to close deals that actually solve customer problems.

This isn’t a cold-calling job. You’ll step in once a deal’s already moving, bringing deep product knowledge to the table so customers can see exactly how Diligent’s Risk & Audit tools fix their specific headaches, including the messy, complicated ones. Think of yourself as the technical wingman who makes the sales conversation credible.

You’ll spend your time on solution-selling rather than pitching a generic script. That means understanding what a customer actually needs, mapping it to the Diligent One Platform, and building proposals that show your product knowledge instead of just your sales patter. Experience with third-party risk management (TPRM) will put you ahead of other candidates here.

The role follows a hybrid setup. If you live within commuting distance of Diligent’s London office, expect to be on-site at least half the week, since the company leans heavily on in-person collaboration to keep momentum going on complex deals.
