Job description

Role overview

Actionstep UK is a fast-scaling legal practice management software business that has expanded rapidly over the last three years and continues to grow strongly each quarter. The company is looking for a consultative UK Sales Account Executive who can help build momentum in a compact, high-performing team. This role suits someone who enjoys solving real customer problems, working strategically, and contributing to a business with ambitious growth plans.

The organisation emphasises entrepreneurial thinking, resourcefulness, creativity, and a strong commercial mindset. It is not positioned as a pure transactional sales role; instead, the focus is on understanding legal firms’ challenges and guiding them toward a cloud-based solution that delivers measurable value.

What the role involves

In this position, you will help expand the customer base, hit sales targets, and communicate the value of Actionstep’s offering to legal-sector prospects. The role includes building pipeline through outbound activity, identifying opportunities, and developing relationships across key customer groups and regions.

The company is seeking someone who can work independently, create demand through prospecting, and close opportunities in a competitive SaaS environment while maintaining a thoughtful, consultative approach.

Candidate profile

The ideal candidate is UK-based and brings SaaS sales experience within the legal industry. You should be self-driven, commercially minded, and comfortable balancing financial ambition with integrity and purpose. The team is looking for someone who genuinely enjoys selling, values autonomy, and wants to contribute to a business that is scaling quickly.

Skills and experience

You should have a strong background in software sales, especially in SaaS or IT solutions, and be confident in managing the full sales cycle from research and qualification through to closing. Familiarity with legal practice management software is especially valuable.

Success in this role will also depend on your ability to communicate clearly, present persuasively, build trusted relationships, and adapt in a fast-moving environment with limited supervision. Experience using Salesforce CRM is required.

Benefits

The company offers support for ongoing sales development, flexible working, unlimited leave, a competitive salary, pension contributions, and private medical, dental, and life insurance. Team social events, lunches, and off-site activities are also included.

Employees work from an office in Kings Cross that includes free barista-made espresso drinks and free beer on tap. The team culture is described as friendly, relaxed, and based on mutual trust, with strong training and development opportunities.

Compensation note

The role references a forecasted on-target earnings figure of £150K, while also noting that candidates motivated by the prospect of earning £250K may be particularly well aligned with the opportunity. No fixed base salary was specified in the source.

Work style

This is an on-site position in London, with flexibility and autonomy highlighted as part of the working style.
