About Orasio

Powered by advanced AI models trained to extract actionable insights from imagery, our technology is designed to be deployed within both existing and new infrastructures, across public and private sectors, civilian or military, while strictly adhering to legal and privacy frameworks.

We develop world-class AI solutions tailored to defense and public safety needs, combining technical excellence with a deep respect for data protection laws.

The Role

We are looking for a Senior Client Executive to lead direct client engagement at Orasio, particularly in the context of complex, on-premise deployments. You will be the primary point of contact for end clients, involving public sector clients (municipalities, police, government entities) and large private operators (transport, logistics, retail, airports, etc.). You will work hand in hand with our Channel Manager to ensure smooth collaboration with integrators and delivery partners.

This is a high-impact role that blends strategic sales, solution deployment oversight, and customer success, requiring a strong commercial presence and a high level of technical and legal fluency. Your role doesn’t stop at closing the deal: you’ll be a trusted advisor throughout the full lifecycle, from pre-sales to deployment, with a particular focus on compliance (GDPR) and solution optimization.

Your mission will focus on Italy .

Professional proficiency in Italian and English is essential.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead direct sales efforts with public and private sector clients, building trust and positioning Orasio as a strategic, long-term partner.

• Collaborate with the Channel Manager to ensure coordinated execution between clients and their chosen integrators.

• Guide clients through complex on-premise or hybrid deployments, ensuring technical feasibility and contractual clarity.

• Provide hands‑on support during pilot phases, training sessions, and project launches—both remotely and on‑site when needed.

• Identify client needs and translate them into actionable insights for product and engineering teams.

• Ensure each project meets legal and privacy standards, especially around data protection and GDPR.

• Drive solution adoption and long‑term satisfaction by delivering strategic account management and high‑quality follow‑up.

Ideal Profile

• 5+ years of experience in complex B2B sales, ideally involving on‑premise or hybrid technology deployments (e.g., security, defense, public infrastructure, AI).

• Experience selling to municipalities or through public procurement processes is required.

• Proven ability to lead direct client relationships from first contact to full deployment.

• Comfortable navigating legal/compliance issues (GDPR, public procurement) as part of the sales and delivery process.

• Excellent communicator: clear, pedagogical, and credible with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.

• Autonomous, fast‑moving, and field‑ready: willing to meet clients in person, manage expectations, and resolve issues on the ground.

• Strong ability to connect business, tech, and operational dots to improve solution performance and client outcomes.

• Fluent in English & Italian.
