About this role
Who we are Samsara (NYSE: IOT) is the pioneer of the Connected Operations™ Cloud, which is a platform that enables organizations that depend on physical operations to harness Internet of Things (IoT) data to develop actionable insights and improve their operations. At Samsara, we are helping improve the safety, efficiency and sustainability of the physical operations that power our global economy.
Representing more than 40% of global GDP, these industries are the infrastructure of our planet, including agriculture, construction, field services, transportation, and manufacturing — and we are excited to help digitally transform their operations at scale.
Working at Samsara means you'll help define the future of physical operations and be on a team that's shaping an exciting array of product solutions, including Video-Based Safety, Vehicle Telematics, Apps and Driver Workflows, and Equipment Monitoring. As part of a recently public company, you'll have the autonomy and support to make an impact as we build for the long term.
About the role: Samsara's UK Enterprise business is one of our fastest-growing segments globally. We've scaled rapidly over the past several years — consistently outpacing the broader business — and we're now at an inflection point where we need to pair that momentum with operational rigour to sustain growth at scale. This Regional Sales Director role is central to that next chapter.
You'll lead a team of six Senior Enterprise Account Executives and Client Directors selling into some of the UK's largest and most complex organisations, spanning transportation, logistics, infrastructure, utilities, and field services. The team is performing — but we want to turn strong results into a repeatable, scalable engine.
That means bringing structure, coaching discipline, and a proven enterprise playbook without losing the pace and builder energy that got us here.
