Backed by Octopus Group, we're the best positioned business in the market to scale across UK financial services, and we're moving fast. This role is how we get there. The Role This is a senior, high-impact enterprise sales role. You'll own the full cycle from pipeline to close, building and converting strategic partnerships with insurers, banks, adviser networks and financial institutions across the UK.You'll report into the CEO on key deals, and have real influence over how we expand our market share. If you're a high-performing sales professional looking for a genuine opportunity to build something, rather than maintain a territory someone else built, this is it. You'll be selling with the Octopus Group name behind you. One of the UK's most recognised and trusted brands, with over 7 million customers and a reputation that opens doors before you've said a word. We have the product, the backing and the market timing. We need the person who can go and close it. Octopus already has deep relationships with thousands of financial partners across the UK. This role gets to leverage that network to scale our proposition across UK financial services - and beyond. What You'll Do * Map the UK financial services landscape and build a targeted pipeline across insurers, banks, adviser networks and wealth managers - then convert them into long-term partnerships that scale. * Leverage existing relationships across the Octopus Group to open doors faster - then convert them into long-term partnerships that scale * Get us known. People already know Octopus - this is about showcasing the breadth of services we can offer. Whether that's speaking at industry events, hosting roundtables or simply being visible across UK wealth, insurance and banking circles. * Run deals end-to-end. From the first conversation to a signed contract, you'll navigate complex organisations with multiple stakeholders, align commercial terms, and get ink on paper. * Make the numbers do the talking. Build partner-specific business cases showing how our platform drives wealth retention, improves customer experience and supports Consumer Duty obligations. * Grow senior relationships across the sector. You'll be in rooms with heads of distribution, chief customer officers and board members - the kind of conversations where partnerships are shaped, not just sold. Who You Are * 7+ years selling into UK financial services at an enterprise level. You've closed complex, multi-stakeholder deals with insurers, banks or wealth managers and you have the relationships to show for it. * You know how these organisations work from the inside - the politics, the buying committees, the commercial pressures. You understand what makes a head of distribution say yes. * Naturally curious. You dig into how a partner's business actually runs before you walk in the room. You understand their customers, their pain points and where we fit. * Direct. With partners, with the team, with yourself. You say what you think and adjust based on what's working, not what you hoped would work. * You don't need managing. You set your own pace, build your own structure and get on with it. * Comfortable without a playbook. You've either built a market before or you've been itching to. * Long sales cycles, shifting stakeholders and incomplete information don't throw you off. You stay focused on the outcome. * You actually care about this. You can explain why bereavement support matters to a room of sceptical executives and make them care too - because we do. * You understand what it means to sell into FCA-regulated environments, consumer duty, and you take that seriously. Benefits: * Flexible working: 3 days in the office (London Bridge) you can work remotely up to 2 days a week. * Work from anywhere in the world for up to 4 weeks per year. * An extra holiday day for your birthday. * Life insurance, Health insurance, Will & LPAs. * Octopus share incentive scheme. * Cycle to Work Scheme and access to the Electric Vehicle (EV) Salary Sacrifice Scheme. * Octopus Giving: we match any charitable fundraising that you do up to £500. * Octopus Springboard: where we help our employees become fully-fledged entrepreneurs.

The Company Octopus Legacy is one of the UK's fastest growing startups, helping over 1 million people plan for and navigate through death - but we're just getting started. After our founder Sam lost his mum suddenly, we built what the market had never seen: a service that combines estate planning and bereavement support with something genuinely human. Voice notes. Music. Recipes. A legacy that actually means something. We're not competing in this space. We're redefining it. Backed by Octopus Group, we're the best positioned business in the market to scale across UK financial services, and we're moving fast. This role is how we get there. THE ROLE We've built a growing network of partners across IFA networks, employers, charities and financial platforms, and it's scaling fast. Now we need someone to make sure those partners are engaged, activated and getting real value from working with us. This isn't a traditional support role. You'll be out meeting partners, building relationships face to face and making sure Octopus Legacy is front of mind. Some of that is picking up the phone. Some of it is visiting firms, running them through the product and showing them how it fits into what they already do. You'll also be one of the closest people we have to the end user, which means your insight directly shapes what we build next. If something isn't working, or a partner is asking for something we don't have yet, that feeds straight back into product and tech. We're at the stage where the people who join now get to define how this function works. You'll be managing a high volume of accounts and that number is only going up. As we scale towards thousands of partners across the network, you'll help build the playbook for what great account management looks like here. WHAT YOU'LL DO * Nurture partner relationships. You're their go-to at Octopus Legacy. Know the network, understand their businesses and be a key point of contact for anything they need. * Drive engagement and adoption. Walk partners through the product, remove blockers and get them using the service properly. * Manage onboarding at volume, making the experience as smooth and low-friction as possible. * Spot opportunities to grow each account. Identify which partners could be doing more with us and build the case for them to expand. * Spot what's not working and feed it back. Your insight into what partners need will directly influence the product roadmap. * Build a system that scales. Today, much of this sits in senior leadership's heads. You'll build the cadence, structure and tooling that lets us manage our partner network properly, and grow it from there. WHO YOU ARE * Experience in account management, customer success or relationship management, ideally with partners, advisers, brokers or intermediaries. * Experience in financial services is a strong plus, but not essential if you can show genuine commercial fluency. * A natural on the phone and in person. You build trust quickly and people enjoy working with you. * Naturally curious. You dig into how a partner's business actually runs. You understand their customers, their pain points and where we fit. * Direct. With partners, with the team, with yourself. You say what you think and adjust based on what's working, not what you hoped would work. * Organised. You can manage a high volume of accounts without things slipping. * Proactive. You don't wait to be told something's wrong. You spot it and act. * You don't need managing. You set your own pace, build your own structure and get on with it. * Comfortable without a playbook. We're building this function from scratch and need someone who's energised by that, not put off. * Genuinely interested in tech and product. You want to understand how the platform works, not just talk about it. * Happy to travel to partner sites. This role has real variety. * You actually care about this. You can talk about death and bereavement without flinching, because you get why it matters. BENEFITS * Flexible working: 3 days in the office (London Bridge) you can work remotely up to 2 days a week. * Work from anywhere in the world for up to 4 weeks per year. * An extra holiday day for your birthday. * Life insurance, Health insurance, Will & LPAs. * Octopus share incentive scheme. * Cycle to Work Scheme and access to the Electric Vehicle (EV) Salary Sacrifice Scheme. * Octopus Giving: we match any charitable fundraising that you do up to £500. * Octopus Springboard: where we help our employees become fully-fledged entrepreneurs.
