About Cerebral Valley

CV is the world's largest tech ecosystem, regularly producing activations around the world with the biggest brands in the industry. When a partner needs to activate an enterprise account, they call us. Private build days, internal hackathons, workshops on corporate campuses: we run those days across the whole enterprise, putting leading AI tools in the hands of who needs them most. ⚡

About the Role

We're bringing enterprise activations to Europe, and this role builds that practice from London. As an Enterprise Activation Lead, you design how a partner activates an enterprise account, then you own the day. You're the counterpart to the partner AE on format, who is in the room, staffing, and what winning looks like, and you run the activation from first scoping call through wrap. These are private, account-specific days at enterprises across Europe, with an emphasis on the UK, France, Germany, and the Nordics. You work across labs. There is no quota.

What you'll do

Shape the activation with the partner AE. Walk the account, pick the format, set the success metric. Usage, teams activated, workflows shipped. Not RSVPs.
Own the day. Format, which stakeholders are in the room, staffing, run-of-show with our operations team, on-site, wrap metrics.
Keep the three-party workstreams moving. The partner supplies product, judges, and speakers. The enterprise hosts at their offices. CV runs the activation. You make the day happen.
Work inside European enterprise constraints. Security reviews, GDPR and data residency, works councils, internal Slack or Teams, VPN and tooling, participant guides, data handled and deleted on their terms. When a CISO says no, you redesign in the room.
Run a European calendar. Sequence activations across accounts and countries, line up local vendors, and keep every day on the same bar.
Be on-site as the owner of the activation, with support from our operations team. You hold the run-of-show, the room, and the wrap.
Measure every activation against the account's goal, then turn the wrap into the next day in that account.
Write the European playbook. What changes by country, language, and industry, fed back into how CV runs activations everywhere.

Non-negotiables you need to have

3-6 years experience in a field consulting, solutions architect, customer success, enterprise GTM, sales, partner-delivery, or client innovation role. Think AI studios, innovation hubs, and executive briefing centers at consultancies and enterprise tech companies.
Based in London, with the right to work in the UK.
Client-facing and presentable. You sit with partner AEs and enterprise stakeholders as a counterpart, not a coordinator. You write, speak, and show up like someone they'd put in the room.
Absurd attention to detail. You catch the thing everyone else misses, consistently.
Crystal clear, fast, and effective communication. There's no room for ambiguity with partner AEs, enterprise security, or our own team.
Discretion by default. Enterprise days run behind NDAs and security reviews. What you see and hear stays there.
High agency. You figure out how to figure it out.
Bias to action. Get it done first, then improve after.
Ready to travel. The days happen on corporate campuses across Europe, often several countries a month, with occasional trips to the US.

Bonus points, but not requirements

You've run client innovation days, immersion days, or internal GenAI workshops for European enterprises, and you have opinions on format.
A working second language.
You can talk IT, VPNs, LLMs, agents, sandbox environments, and internal tooling with a technical audience. You don't have to be the person who builds them, just communicates the requirements, product, and constraints.
A deep understanding of the AI industry: the models, the products, the companies, and where European enterprises sit in the adoption race.
Hackathon or technical event experience, whether organizing or competing.
An inclination toward learning new tools and experimenting with your own processes to get shit done efficiently.

How our process runs

Introductory call with someone from CV's team.
Live work session, working through a real activation together.
Prepared pitch. You're given time to think before the call, then you pitch the activation to fit the customer's needs.
Culture interview for alignment with CV.

CV hires for agency, not pedigree. CV is an equal-opportunity employer and welcomes applicants of every background. If you truly think you're a great fit and you don't fit the mold, try anyway.
