Opportunity

About Verna

Verna builds software to help people manage land in the best way for the environment – enhancing biodiversity and drawing down carbon, whilst making sustainable returns. 

Our flagship SaaS product, Mycelia, is England’s market-leading solution for Biodiversity Net Gain. More than 100 local authorities already rely on Mycelia, and fresh funding now positions us to grow both our impact and customer base. 

Role

We are aiming to double our customer base by the end of 2026, while laying the foundations for international expansion. Your mission is to design and run a repeatable, datadriven sales process that gets us there. 

This role involves introducing best-in-class processes, systems and practices for sales, and supporting a strong link between customers and other parts of the business. 

This is an important role in a fast-growing and innovative business, which is increasingly regarded as a leader in NatureTech. Your compensation will include share options, enabling you to share in the company’s success. 

The successful candidate will work directly with the Co-CEOs, Rafi Cohen and Dr Matthew Brown. 

We currently operate as a remote team, with London office bases available including through our place on the Geovation accelerator programme. We meet quarterly as a full team.  

Like ecosystems, teams are more vibrant, innovative, and resilient when they are more diverse. We welcome applications from everyone. 

Responsibilities

As a start-up, execution is paramount and every team member at Verna spends lots of their time rolling up their sleeves and getting things done. At this stage of our growth all team members can contribute across the business, wherever they see opportunities to add value. 

About you

We are looking for evidence of the below experience, skills and ways of working. Above all, we believe that the desire and ability to learn quickly is more important than ticking every bullet point from this list.
