Account Executive

Job Description

Account Executive

Remote

*This opportunity is presented by Shift Group on behalf of a profitable, founder-led enterprise software company.

About the Opportunity

We are partnering with a profitable, founder-led software company that helps large organizations find and eliminate waste in their technology spend. Built by enterprise technology veterans with decades of experience, they sell alongside the channel partners their customers already trust, so the customer saves money and the partner deepens the relationship. They're bringing on an Enterprise Account Executive to own deals end to end so the founders can step out of every sales call.

Real customers, measurable savings, no burn-rate anxiety, and plenty of room to expand once an account lands. We back this expectation with an $80,000 Base and a $160,000 OTE. If you want enterprise deals, executive conversations and the stability of a profitable business, this is your seat.

Key Responsibilities

\n
• Work the Channel: Partner with reseller reps to bring the platform into their accounts and co-sell alongside them.
\n
• Sell to the C-Suite: Run deals with senior IT and finance leaders, building business cases that quantify real savings.
\n
• Own the Full Cycle: Qualify, present, negotiate and close enterprise deals on your own.
\n
• Land and Expand: Grow each account into new areas of spend after the first win.
\n

Qualifications

\n
• The Experience: Experience closing B2B software deals; mid-market or enterprise experience is a plus. Channel or partner selling is a bonus, not a must.
\n
• Competitive Background: Former collegiate or professional athletes and military veterans thrive here. Your discipline and drive to win are your resume.
\n
• The Execution: You can build a clear business case and walk senior IT and finance leaders through the numbers.
\n
• The Mindset: Self-directed, financially sharp and excited to own deals from start to finish.
\n
