The Belgian Office

Based in Brussels , the Wavestone Belgium office currently gathers around 35 consultants and is entering a new phase of growth, driven by strong market demand in two strategic areas: Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence .

Over the past years, we have established strong credibility, recognised expertise and trusted client relationships. We are now looking to accelerate our commercial footprint across Belgium and the wider European ecosystem.

The Belgian office operates with a high degree of autonomy and entrepreneurial spirit. This role offers a unique opportunity to directly shape the growth trajectory of the office, open new markets and build lasting relationships with leading Belgian organisations, European institutions and international bodies based in Brussels. Help build the next chapter of Wavestone Belgium by opening strategic accounts across Belgium and European institutions, and turning our Cybersecurity and AI expertise into sustainable business growth.

Description du poste

We are looking for a true business hunter to accelerate Wavestone's growth in Belgium and within European institutions.

Your mission is simple: open doors, build executive relationships and turn them into long-term client partnerships around two of today's most strategic topics: Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence.

You will not inherit a large portfolio of existing accounts. Instead, you will help create the next generation of Wavestone clients in Belgium. This role is designed for someone who enjoys building from scratch, creating opportunities where others see obstacles and thriving in an entrepreneurial environment. High energy, resilience, curiosity and the ability to establish trust with senior decision-makers matter more to us than a perfect consulting background.

You will work hand in hand with our consultants and partners to develop new business opportunities, promote Wavestone's expertise and contribute directly to the growth strategy of the Belgian office.

Open several new strategic accounts across Belgium and European institutions.
Build a strong qualified pipeline in AI and Cybersecurity.

Prepare, schedule and co-lead client meetings and executive presentations alongside consultants and partners.
Qualify client business challenges and connect them with the most relevant Wavestone expertise.
Drive opportunities from first contact to contract signature, including negotiations and procurement processes.
Contribute to increasing Wavestone's visibility and reputation across Belgium and the European ecosystem.

You will:

Develop strong relationships with executives and key stakeholders.

Organise and lead commercial meetings alongside consulting teams.
Promote Wavestone's AI and Cybersecurity offerings while leveraging the broader expertise of the Group when relevant.
Coordinate complex sales cycles involving multiple stakeholders and experts.

You will play an active role in shaping the commercial development strategy of the Belgian office.

You will:

Analyse target markets and identify strategic growth opportunities.
Define and execute account development and market penetration plans.
Track and manage sales activities, pipeline and performance indicators through Salesforce.
Contribute to commercial reviews and strategic decision-making.
Stay ahead of trends in AI, Cybersecurity and digital transformation.
