About the Role

Orbital is hiring a Sales Director to lead our commercial expansion across North America. In this role, you will drive high-impact enterprise sales, win complex deals, and accelerate significant growth. You will blend strategic go-to-market leadership with hands-on client engagement to shape our market presence and uncover new opportunities.

What You'll Do

  • Own the North America GTM strategy, ensuring alignment with global commercial priorities.
  • Architect and lead the commercial strategy for high-value accounts, setting direction for sales, business development, and GTM execution.
  • Partner with the executive team to define market-leading pricing strategies in a rapidly evolving landscape.
  • Cultivate executive-level relationships with decision-makers across priority accounts.
  • Deeply understand client infrastructure requirements and align solutions to their evolving needs.
  • Establish Orbital as the trusted strategic partner of choice for colocation and adjacent services.
  • Shape Orbital’s North America market presence by identifying emerging opportunities and competitive inflection points.
  • Drive cross-functional collaboration with technical, marketing, and product leaders to develop integrated, high-impact solutions.
  • Serve as a senior industry representative for Orbital, elevating the company’s profile through thought leadership and engagement at key events.
  • Provide strategic insight on industry trends, customer feedback, and technological shifts to influence commercial strategy and future product direction.

What We're Looking For

  • Extensive experience driving strategic partnerships and ecosystem development, ideally across technology, cloud, or data-intensive industries.
  • Proven commercial leadership in senior or executive roles within the data center sector, with a strong record of delivering growth in fast-moving, international start-ups.
  • Demonstrated success across the full sales lifecycle — from deal origination and complex negotiation through to execution and long-term account expansion.
  • Deep network and credibility with hyperscale, neocloud, and enterprise clients across North America, with the ability to open doors and accelerate revenue.
  • Exceptional leadership, communication, and organizational skills, and a collaborative approach that elevates both internal teams and external partners.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset, comfortable navigating ambiguity, building processes from the ground up, and operating with ownership and urgency.

Benefits & Compensation

  • Competitive salary and equity package — the ability to own part of Orbital as we grow.
  • Flexible and generous paid time off.
  • Excellent health, dental and vision insurance plan.
  • Regular company offsites.
  • The experience of working in a cutting-edge organisation dedicated to a better future.
