About Dave Austin

Strategic Account Director at TechnologyOne

Hi, I'm Dave and I've spent over 10 years selling and delivering enterprise technology across government, defence and national security, first in the UK and now in New Zealand. I've been front of market at every stage, from helping scale a consultancy to £50m to becoming Workday's first public sector Managing Partner in the UK, and I'm now leading government growth for an enterprise software company in NZ. What I enjoy most is the craft behind it all: mapping stakeholders, winning the room, and turning cold outreach into trusted relationships.

I can help you with:

Breaking into enterprise or public sector sales Stakeholder mapping and getting in front of senior people Structuring deals, proposals and messaging that actually land Using AI across your sales workflow
