Account Executive (United States)

Who We Are

Atlas is an AI-native ATS/CRM built for the recruitment industry. We're Seed-funded (c.£6M, led by Smedvig Ventures), with ~450 customers and scaling past $3M ARR in just 18 months of operating. We've grown almost entirely through inbound - strong LinkedIn, a content engine that ranks, and a genuine edge in AI search: when recruiters ask ChatGPT or Claude which ATS to buy, Atlas is the most visible brand in its category. We're AI-first in how we run, not just what we sell: lean team, heavy tooling, repeatable systems over headcount.

What You'll Be Doing

Our lead generation is entirely inbound. We're hiring Account Executive across multiple levels, from experienced Account Executive to Senior Account Executive. The level, responsibilities, and compensation will be calibrated based on your experience and track record.

You'll own larger inbound opportunities from the first conversation through to signature, before handing the customer over to Customer Success. This includes running product demos, building account maps, developing winning strategies, and partnering with multiple stakeholders to drive successful outcomes.

If you're unsure whether you fit the Account Executive or Senior Account Executive profile, we'd still encourage you to apply. We're more interested in exceptional sales talent than job titles.

Our sales philosophy

• We believe all sales admin should be automated and have deployed agentic AI throughout our stack
• We don't pursue aggressive sales strategies (our product is light years ahead of anything on the market)
• We don't believe in feature comparison - saying you have a feature doesn't mean that the feature is any good. We believe in outcomes. Why Atlas helps our clients bill more
