About

Alec Harden-Henry, founder of Vocara

Twenty years in B2B sales and go-to-market. Now building the outbound function I always wanted to buy.

Vocara is built on what I've seen work across my career: the conversation is what wins the meeting, so that's where the human time should go. Everything around it, agents can now do. We automate everything except the conversation.

Vocara is my business, and I'm on every account. I sign off every strategy before it reaches you, and I'm the person you talk to when something needs to change.

Before Vocara

  • 2026

    Head of New Business, Air Marketing

    Led new business for an outsourced SDR and BDR agency. Took over the end-to-end sales process from the CEO and closed deals myself. Built the qualification framework the business now uses as its CRM stage criteria, and designed the engagement-scored dialling queue that puts warmed contacts ahead of cold data.

  • 2025 to 2026

    Founding AE, RevvedUp

    Owned the full commercial function for an AI-native account-based marketing platform, including its move from a managed service to a product-led model.

  • 2023 to 2026

    Founder and GTM consultant, Startup Growth

    Helped B2B companies build sales engines they could scale: ICP definition, outbound playbooks, pipeline from a standing start, and C-level meetings with global brands for clients.

  • 2019 to 2023

    Commercial Director, then MD, Influence Network

    First commercial hire at an influencer marketing technology business. Built the commercial function from zero without external investment, winning work with global agency groups and household-name brands across the UK, Europe, the US and Australia.

  • 2006 to 2019

    Agency, B2B sales and marketing

    Agency account management for global technology brands, B2B sales and digital marketing, including six years in Dubai.
