Humanoid
We believe in a future where robots amplify human potential. That’s why we’ve set out on a mission to build the world’s most capable, commercially-scalable, and safe humanoid robots. We’re bringing that mission to life with HMND-01 Alpha - our rapidly developed humanoid platform now running in real industrial pilots - and we’re growing the team to take it even further.
About the Role
We're hiring a VP of Sales to join our Business Development team based in London. In this role you will take ownership of business development in the Robotics / Warehouse / Logistics and Automotive / Manufacturing verticals. You’ll be at the front line of securing pre-sales, commercial agreements, strategic partnerships, and pre-orders for our robots.
This is a high-impact role for someone hungry to grow quickly, hit ambitious targets, and accelerate their career in robotics and automation.
What You'll Do
- Execute aggressive sales strategies targeting Warehouse / Logistics and Automotive / Manufacturing clients.
- Drive the full sales cycle: lead generation → pitching → negotiation → contract closure.
- Secure pre-sales, commercial agreements, and strategic partnerships for robots still in development.
- Develop and deliver compelling business cases & ROI analyses for potential customers.
- Build relationships with key decision-makers and stakeholders in target industries.
- Partner with product & engineering to align solutions with customer needs.
- Track market trends and competitor activity to refine go-to-market approaches.
