Account Executive About The Role Wander is building WanderOS — a modern, conversion‑focused website and booking engine built specifically for professional property managers. We meet operators at the most pivotal moment of their business: turning traffic into bookings and owning demand.

WanderOS combines proven design, SEO, and AI‑powered optimization to materially increase conversion rates, drive incremental bookings, and reduce reliance on third‑party OTAs. Our customers use Wander Sites as a true revenue engine for their portfolio, not just a marketing site.

We’re hiring a full‑time Account Executive (AE) to own revenue for Wander Sites. This is a full‑cycle sales role for a gritty SaaS seller who owns their book of business end‑to‑end, from prospecting and discovery through close and expansion, while also working qualified meetings sourced by BDRs.

You’ll be responsible for closing new business, shaping our sales motion, and helping define what “great” looks like as we scale this product.

What You’ll Do

Own a personal book of business and full sales cycle: prospecting → discovery → demo → close

Close revenue from both self‑sourced pipeline and BDR‑qualified opportunities

Run high‑quality discovery conversations centered on conversion, direct bookings, OTA dependency, and portfolio growth

Deliver compelling demos that position Wander Sites as a booking engine and revenue driver, not just a website

Build tailored business cases that clearly tie Wander Sites to ROI and incremental bookings

Consistently hit (and exceed) monthly and quarterly revenue targets

Manage deal strategy, timelines, stakeholders, and objections through to close

Maintain strong pipeline hygiene and forecasting accuracy in HubSpot

Partner closely with BDRs to improve outbound strategy, qualification, and handoff

Provide feedback on product positioning, pricing, objections, and competitive dynamics

Win deals despite evolving processes, tools, and playbooks

What We’re Looking For

2–5+ years experience in a quota‑carrying Account Executive or full‑cycle SaaS sales role

Proven track record of closing new business and consistently hitting revenue targets

Experience owning your book of business, including self‑sourcing pipeline

Strong discovery, demo, and closing skills with a consultative, value‑based approach

Comfort selling to operators and decision‑makers with a business and ROI mindset

Experience selling SaaS, digital products, or technology (proptech, marketing tech, SEO/web products a plus)

Ability to navigate objections and multi‑thread deals when needed

Highly motivated, resourceful, and accountable — you don’t wait to be told what to do

Strong executive presence and communication skillsExcellent time management, prioritization, and pipeline discipline

Team‑oriented mindset with willingness to contribute to process and GTM evolution
