Account Executive - Universities

We are a hyper-growth tech startup on a mission to revolutionise student rental. We have gone from $0 to $10M ARR in just the past 18 months and recently raised a $10M Series A to fuel growth in the US+Canada college markets.

We’re looking for an experienced AE to take ownership of our US expansion efforts.

• You’ll step into a healthy pipeline from Day 1 with interested prospects and new opportunities being created on a weekly basis.
• Your territory is a wide open greenfield – there’s lots of potential customers out there for you to go get.
• You’ll be representing a brand that has gained a ton of traction in the US in the last 6 months - so you have some healthy customers to lean on in your expansion efforts.
• The product you are selling is vastly different from any competitors.

• Sell Sell Sell. Run every step of the sales process from discovery to close as you bring on new colleges and universities to Housr. You will mainly focus on closing deals and managing a long sales process – but you will prospect new opportunities as well.
• Expand the Housr Brand. Get the word out that Housr is here to reimagine the off campus student experience. Attend conferences, build relationships with university decision makers, and help position Housr as the go to solution for housing and off campus living departments.
• Refine Best Practices. Your efforts will help build the Housr sales playbook. You will work closely with the CRO to determine best practices to fuel growth throughout the US and Canada.
• Blast Through Sales Targets. Achieve and exceed quotas as you bring new universities on board.
• Collaboration For the Win. Work alongside our US and UK marketing, product, and customer success teams to help propel Housr’s growth across all departments.

This role comes with immense career growth potential – perfect for an AE that is looking to dominate as an individual contributor and then rise through the ranks and oversee a team.

• You have experience selling to colleges and universities in the US/Canada market = you understand the sales process in higher education.
• You have worked at a high-growth startup before. Nothing against big corporate life – but working at a rocketship that’s taking off just requires a bit more resourcefulness.
• You are an expert communicator and people enjoy talking to you.
• You are aggressively curious – you ask relevant questions and you never leave a conversation with important points unanswered.

• You’re uncomfortable making decisions without having all the information. Housr is a rocketship growth mode - we move fast and act decisively.
• You prefer the corporate life of a well-defined process and predictable daily pace. We are growing and learning everyday – processes can change quickly and you’ll be a big part of it.

• Competitive compensation + meaningful equity - You’ll have real ownership in what you’re building - not just a paycheck.
• Uncapped commission with a highly competitive OTE that directly rewards results
• Early‑stage equity – you share in the value you help create within a company with unlimited growth potential
• 20 days PTO plus federal holidays
• 100 percent employer‑paid medical, dental, and vision
  , with options for dependents
• 401(k) match, life, and disability coverage
• Generous budget for conferences, tools, and professional development
• Massive career growth – This role has a clear path to senior AE and leadership opportunities as we scale the properties team.
• Front‑row seat to hyper‑growth – Join a company that has gone from $0 to $10M ARR in 18 months and is just getting started in North America.
• Flexibility & trust – We care about outcomes, not clock‑watching. You’ll have the autonomy to do your best work.
• Work with a world‑class, global team – Collaborate with sharp, driven teammates across the US, UK, and beyond.
• High ownership, high impact – Every deal you close directly impacts market launches and company growth.

• Intro Call (30 minutes) – A conversation with a member of our team to get to know you, walk through your background, and align on role expectations.
• University Sales Deep Dive / Case Conversation (1 hour) – A practical discussion with sales leadership focused on how you approach selling into colleges and universities, managing long sales cycles, and navigating multiple stakeholders.
• Sales Task + Presentation (1–1.5 hours) – You’ll walk us through how you’d approach winning a new university partner — from initial outreach to close and expansion.
• Final Conversation with Leadership (45 minutes) – A conversation to align on vision, ownership, and long‑term growth at Housr.

We value thoughtful, driven sellers and aim to make a decision quickly once we find the right fit.
