Enterprise Account Executive (SaaS) (Chicago-based)

seoClarity is on the hunt for an Enterprise Account Executive (SaaS) to drive new logo growth at the highest level.

This is not a role for sellers who rely on others to generate prospective leads, this is built for someone who identifies and creates their own pipeline. This role is built for a sales hunter who commands the room and leads from the front. From the first cold outreach to the signed agreement, you own the pursuit! You are responsible for navigating long sales cycles and multi-stakeholder buying groups without relying on inbound volume or executive intervention. If you thrive in environments where autonomy is earned, performance is visible, and results matter more than activity, this role will stretch and reward you!

  • Competitive Compensation base salary plus uncapped commission, with total on-target earnings ranging from $75,000 to $180,000+ (uncapped, performance-based).
  • Robust Benefits Package a well-rounded package designed to support your health, financial security, flexibility, and long-term growth, including major medical, dental, and vision coverage, company-sponsored life insurance, a 401(k) with company matching, commuter benefits, generous PTO, paid sick time, and company holidays.
  • Perks That Support You a continuous learning stipend, paid parental leave with extended work-from-home flexibility for new mothers, company-wide celebrations, and an annual global summit that brings teams together.
  • Snack & Beverage Fuel a fully stocked kitchen with snacks, drinks, and grab-and-go options to keep energy high and focus sharp throughout the day.
  • In-Office, Hybrid Schedule by Design our team comes together in our Downtown Chicago office Tuesday through Thursday for high-impact collaboration, with Mondays and Fridays reserved for focused remote work.
  • Effortless commute options with valet parking on-site, quick access to the "L" at Chicago Station, a short walk to major Metra lines, direct CTA bus routes (37 and 66), and secure bike storage.
  • A built-in dining scene just steps from your desk, including Starbucks, Hannah's Bretzel, Sopraffina Marketcaffe, Rustle & Roux with an exclusive seoClarity discount, Amazon Go, etc.
  • A large, fully equipped fitness center with locker rooms and showers, making before-work, lunch-hour, or after-work workouts easy and convenient.
  • Comfortable lounge spaces, ideal for recharging between meetings or after intense deal cycles.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of enterprise SaaS sales experience with a demonstrated ability to manage long, complex, multi-threaded sales cycles.
  • A proven track record of closing enterprise deals with ACVs consistently above $50k, showing patience, precision, and deal leadership.
  • A strong outbound foundation, with experience creating pipeline through cold outreach, strategic account targeting, and disciplined follow-up.
  • Experience selling into Fortune 1000 or similarly complex organizations with multiple stakeholders and buying committees.
  • Solid understanding of the digital marketing and MarTech ecosystem, including SEO, organic growth, and performance measurement.
  • Comfort operating with high autonomy and limited oversight, where success is driven by judgment, prioritization, and execution.
  • A collaborative mindset paired with personal ownership and accountability.

Responsibilities

  • Proactively hunt for and create new enterprise opportunities by identifying high-value accounts and opening doors where no prior relationship exists.
  • Own the full enterprise sales lifecycle, from first cold outreach through signed agreement, without reliance on SDR support or inbound flow.
  • Consistently generate at least 70 percent of your pipeline through outbound prospecting, research, and relationship development.
  • Build and influence complex buying committees across SEO, Digital Marketing, Procurement, and executive leadership.
  • Lead consultative, insight-driven sales conversations focused on ROI, business impact, and long-term value.
  • Run discovery sessions, product demos, negotiations, and close processes independently and with confidence.
  • Maintain disciplined pipeline management, forecasting accuracy, and CRM hygiene.
  • Identify patterns in successful deals and contribute to refining a scalable enterprise sales playbook.
  • Partner cross-functionally with marketing, product, and leadership to align messaging and deal strategy.
  • Represent seoClarity externally with professionalism, credibility, and executive presence in high-stakes sales conversations.
