Job Description

Founding Account Executive

Are you ambitious, energetic and hungry for success? Do you love sales, building new relationships and the thrill of closing a deal? If you're motivated by targets, financial rewards and the chance to make a real impact, this could be the opportunity for you.

We're looking for a driven Founding Account Executive to help grow an exciting business connecting leading brands with Gen Z consumers through a powerful student marketplace.

Working with well-known brands across fashion, beauty, retail and beyond, you'll have the opportunity to build new partnerships and help drive growth in the US market.

This is a great opportunity for someone who loves a challenge, takes ownership of their success and wants to be rewarded for their results. You don't necessarily need years of experience or a senior title. We're open to ambitious, junior salespeople who have already demonstrated their ability to hit targets, win business and deliver results.

What you'll be doing

\n
• Hunting for new business and identifying opportunities with exciting brands.
\n
• Building your own pipeline through proactive outreach and networking.
\n
• Developing relationships with decision-makers and turning prospects into clients.
\n
• Managing the full sales cycle, from the first conversation through to negotiation and closing the deal.
\n
• Winning new accounts and creating partnerships that deliver real commercial value.
\n
• Taking ownership of your targets and pushing yourself to achieve outstanding results.
\n
• Working closely with internal teams to ensure a smooth handover once new partnerships are secured.
\n

What we're looking for

\n
• A proven track record in sales, ideally with experience winning new business or consistently hitting targets.
\n
• Someone ambitious, competitive and motivated by financial success.
\n
• A natural relationship builder who enjoys meeting new people, opening doors and closing deals.
\n
• A positive, energetic and proactive approach, with the confidence to pick up the phone and start conversations.
\n
• Resilience and determination, with the ability to bounce back from rejection and keep going.
\n
• A self-starter who takes initiative, embraces challenges and wants to keep developing.
\n
• Experience in SaaS, technology, digital media, e-commerce, marketing or advertising would be beneficial, but we're open to strong salespeople from other industries too.
\n

Why join?

You'll be joining a fast-growing business with an exciting proposition, an established presence in the UK and significant opportunities to grow in the US.

The culture is a big part of what makes this opportunity special. You'll be working alongside passionate, energetic and success-driven people who enjoy what they do, support each other and are motivated to achieve big things together.

This is a chance to take ownership, build relationships with recognisable brands and make your mark in a growing market.

What's on offer?

\n
• Uncapped commission, giving you the opportunity to significantly increase your earnings.
\n
• The chance to help grow a business and make a real commercial impact.
\n
• An ambitious, collaborative culture where energy, initiative and results matter.
\n

If you're hungry for success, love winning new business and want your hard work to pay off, we'd love to hear from you.
