Strategic Account Executive

Job Title: US – Strategic Account Executive

Compensation Range: $160,000-200,000 + $160,000-200,000 Commissions (Depending on Experience)  

What is the role?
You’ll spend about your time growing revenue with existing customers. The role is collaborative as you’ll work with Solutions Engineers, SDRs, Account Managers, Professional Services, Product Management, Legal, and Sales Ops to find opportunities, shape and validate solutions, and close new revenue. You’ll partner most closely with Account Managers because they know the current customers day to day, and together you’ll plan how to reach new teams and grow each account.

Who are you?
You have the ability to talk to Analysts, Data Engineers, and C-Suite with comfort. You won’t be building the product, but you can explain how it works in plain terms. You sell on value as opposed to features. You know how to ask the right questions to get the information you need in a deal. You are comfortable with using AI to keep organized, iterate solutions, and finalize proposals, but you still have an opinion and intuition. You are entrepreneurial, but you may not have ever been an entrepreneur. You have great relationships and are comfortable bringing them professionally when there’s a win-win. You advocate for yourself, the company, and your client with fair balance. Prior to sales, you may have worked as or in a Solutions role (consultant, architect, or engineer), Technical Account Manager, Business Transformation, or Management Consulting.
