Head of Sales VirGeo

At Vir Geo, we provide a purpose-built, cloud-based platform that gives enterprises a single source of truth for all their geo-data — independent of who acquired it, when it was created, or which project it originated from. Unlike generic file-sharing tools, Vir Geo understands geo-data: files are linked to precise geographic locations and visualised on interactive maps, making it easy to access data based on where it was collected.

As part of Fugro, we combine global expertise with innovative digital solutions to help clients unlock the value of geo-data. We are now looking for a Head of Sales to lead Vir Geo’s commercial growth and global expansion within the energy industry and subsequently into adjacent industries.
