National Account Sales Executive

Location: Remote (TX, IL, or northeast US/New England preferred); Travel Required

What This Role Is

The National Account Sales Executive is a results-driven B2B sales hunter responsible for identifying, pursuing, and closing new national account opportunities.

The ideal candidate has a proven track record of building pipeline, developing relationships with decision-makers, presenting strategic solutions, and closing revenue-generating deals.

This is not a passive account management role. Success requires consistent prospecting, disciplined follow-up, strategic selling, and the ability to move opportunities through the full sales cycle.
