8x8 connects our customers and teams globally, empowering CX leaders with performance and insights to make smarter decisions, delight customers, and drive lasting business impact.

With a new Chief Revenue Officer in place, we are resetting how we go to market across EMEA — and we are looking for a VP of Sales to build an elite, high-performance sales organisation spanning Enterprise and Commercial across Europe.

You will own a strategically critical and fast-growing revenue region, taking the 8x8 Communications Platform to market across diverse and complex geographies, and creating a culture that is competitive, accountable, and relentlessly focused on winning.

What You'll Own

• EMEA revenue performance across new business and account management

• A multi-layered organisation of Regional Directors and senior leaders, built to scale across multiple markets

• The execution of a platform-led sales motion across UCaaS and CCaaS throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Africa

• A sales culture defined by energy, ambition, accountability, and results

• Close partnership with channel, alliances, and partner organisations across the region

What You'll Do

• Build and lead a best-in-class Enterprise and Commercial sales organisation across EMEA

• Partner closely with the CRO to redefine go-to-market strategy across European markets

• Drive predictable pipeline, forecasting discipline, and consistent target over-achievement across the region

• Personally engage in high-value, complex enterprise deals across key EMEA markets

• Attract, develop, and retain top sales leadership talent across multiple countries and time zones

• Navigate multi-currency, multi-language, and multi-regulatory environments with commercial precision

• Set the pace, raise the bar, and create a team people want to win with

Who You Are

• A proven EMEA sales leader with experience at VP level or equivalent, with direct responsibility for the region

• Deep background in Unified Communications, Contact Center, or cloud communications — ideally with a platform vendor or high-growth SaaS company

• Experienced leading leaders across multiple European and international markets — not just individual contributors

• Comfortable managing the complexity of EMEA: diverse languages, regulations, buyer behaviours, and partner ecosystems

• Highly target-driven, competitive, and commercially sharp with strong financial acumen

• Comfortable operating in fast-change, growth-oriented SaaS environments

• Known for building strong teams, clear accountability, and winning cultures across distributed geographies

• London-based or willing to relocate to London as the base for the role

Why This Role Matters

• Direct influence on strategy, structure, and culture under a new CRO with a clear mandate to grow

• Ownership of a high-growth international territory with global executive visibility

• A differentiated single-platform story — UCaaS and CCaaS combined — in a crowded and fragmented market

• The chance to build something significant across EMEA, not just inherit it

• A London HQ that puts you at the centre of 8x8's EMEA commercial operations

The Bottom Line

This role is for a sales leader who wants to leave a mark — to build a team, shape a market, and drive growth at scale across one of the world's most commercially diverse regions.

If you are motivated by ambition, ownership, and winning together across EMEA, this is the role.
