About the Role
Zinc is rapidly technologizing its services for candidates, recruiters, and customers. The Expansion Lead is a new, senior individual-contributor hire responsible for owning and executing a £30M+ expansion opportunity through cross-selling into existing accounts and geographic growth. This role will build and run the expansion motion, identify new opportunities within renewal conversations, and requires someone who has built a sales motion from scratch, is commercially sharp, hands-on, and comfortable with both strategy and closing deals.
Responsibilities
- Own expansion revenue, directly managing cross-sell (new products into existing accounts) and geographic/subsidiary expansion (new markets within existing accounts).
- Design and implement methods for tracking, building, and reporting on expansion pipeline, ensuring forecast reliability in partnership with Finance and RevOps.
- Collaborate with a dedicated outreach hire who will manage prospecting volume, allowing focus on strategy and high-value conversations.
- Partner with Marketing on lifecycle campaigns to scale outreach effectively while maintaining relationship-led conversations.
Requirements
- Full-cycle sales experience, including strategy development and closing deals.
- Data literacy and commercial numeracy, including reading benchmarking data, sizing opportunities, and building forecasting models.
- Experience in pipeline and mechanism design, with the ability to track and report on pipeline, ideally with RevOps support.
- Proven ability in cross-functional delivery, effectively collaborating with Marketing and outreach partners without direct authority.
- Strong risk judgment for complex deals, with the ability to sequence expansion opportunities to protect wider account relationships.
- Demonstrated ability to build something from scratch and drive initiatives independently.
- Capacity to motivate others and gain prioritization for new workstreams.
- Ability to operate strategically and hands-on within the same week.
- Skill in driving visibility for new initiatives.
- Comfort with ambiguity and an evolving role structure.
