About the role Senior Account Executive – North America
Are you a driven sales professional who thrives on outbound prospecting and owning the full sales cycle? If you get a buzz from booking that first meeting and closing the deal, this high‑impact, high‑energy role may be your next great opportunity. You will generate outbound pipeline, run the full sales cycle from first touch to close, and support the post‑sale experience to set clients up for long‑term success.
How you'll spend your time

Sell to a range of personas – from Office Managers to Finance and HR leaders – and adapt your pitch accordingly.
We get excited about you if you have
3+ years of experience running full‑cycle B2B sales, with a strong focus on outbound prospecting and new business generation in the mid‑market space; background in startups, SaaS, or B2B tech is a plus.
A proven hunter mindset – you’re energized by building pipeline and closing net new deals.
Comfort engaging with senior decision‑makers and adapting your message to different personas.
A self‑sufficient and organized approach to work – but you’re still a team player at heart.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, especially via video and phone.
A growth mindset, strong integrity, and relentless drive to succeed.
