Enterprise Account Director

About us: Parabola is a workflow builder that makes it easy to organize and transform messy data from anywhere— even PDFs, emails, and spreadsheets—so that forward‑thinking teams can automate the work they thought would always be manual. Teams at fast‑moving companies like Brooklinen, On Running, and Flexport use Parabola to save hundreds of hours and finally take on the projects that used to feel out of reach. Whether it’s reconciling inventory across multiple 3PLs, auditing invoices, or manually exporting the same report every Monday, Parabola gives teams the power to automate it—all without needing engineering support. Parabola is backed by OpenView Partners, Matrix Partners, Thrive Capital and more. About the opportunity: We are so excited to be hiring a founding Enterprise Account Director to join our team.

About you: The Enterprise Account Director is someone that has the instinct and the ability to go deep with customers . You’re not afraid and actually relish in the opportunity to understand a workflow from start to finish. Why it matters to the business. Why it’s challenging and complex today. And the value the business would get if it was automated. You aren’t just good at making plans or assessing a situation; you execute, drive urgency and effectively project manage internally and with the customer until an outcome is realized. And then you are identifying the next milestone and doing it again! You have a knack for taking hundreds of those micro stories from end users and transforming them into a compelling value story that supports the executive initiatives. You obsess over the details. You have extreme ownership over the outcomes your customer and the team are trying to accomplish with a customer. You've always been called proactive. You’re able to identify risks and not just identify them but create a mitigation plan. You are an exceptional communicator internally and with the customer, distilling down the most important information to move the needle for the customer.
