Why This Role Stands Out
This Senior Sales Director role offers a significant opportunity to shape the future of automation within the UK&I consumer industries, leading a high-performing team and driving substantial growth. You'll thrive here if you are a strategic sales leader passionate about building and scaling enterprise businesses, leveraging your expertise to deliver transformative value to major clients. Embrace this chance to make a lasting impact at a reputable, fast-paced company.

Job Description
Life at UiPath
The people at UiPath believe in the transformative power of automation to change how the world works. We’re committed to creating category-leading enterprise software that unleashes that power.
To make that happen, we need people who are curious, self-propelled, generous, and genuine. People who love being part of a fast-moving, fast-thinking growth company. And people who care—about each other, about UiPath, and about our larger purpose.
Could that be you?
Your mission
As RVP, Consumer Industries, you will own and grow UiPath's Consumer Industries business across the UK & Ireland — spanning Retail, Travel & Hospitality, Media and Telecommunications.

Build and lead a differentiated sales team spanning strategic account management, enterprise growth and new-business hunting, each with a distinct playbook and clear ownership
Grow our largest strategic accounts through executive sponsorship, multi-year account planning and consistent value realisation
Expand UiPath's footprint within existing customers by opening new buying centres and driving adoption of new solution areas

What you'll bring to the team
Extensive experience building, managing and coaching a high performing enterprise sales team and creating a winning culture
Ability to define and execute industry GTM strategy, with a demonstrable track record of executing GTM strategies in an enterprise software business
Experience leading differentiated sales models — for example, distinct strategic account, growth and new-business hunting motions — rather than a single generic sales role
Demonstrable track record of hitting and exceeding sales targets
Domain credibility in Consumer, Retail, Travel & Hospitality, Media or Telecommunications, or a closely related enterprise vertical
Extensive experience working in a value driven sales environment
Experience providing executive sponsorship on strategic, complex, and competitive opportunities; immersed, customer facing, and in a solution-oriented capacity

Maybe you don’t tick all the boxes above—but still think you’d be great for the job? Go ahead, apply anyway. Please. Because we know that experience comes in all shapes and sizes—and passion can’t be learned.
