About the Opportunity

We are looking for a proven, heavy-hitting Account Executive to drive massive new business growth for an industry-leading short-term rental and hospitality operations platform. By eliminating manual work and skyrocketing operational efficiency for thousands of operators, our technology has already powered millions of property care tasks worldwide. In this highly strategic role, you will not be waiting for inbound leads; you are expected to hunt, build deep enterprise relationships, and close complex SaaS deals with key stakeholders across your territory.

This is a fast-paced, high-growth environment built for relentless competitors who want to command the full sales cycle from initial discovery through rigorous negotiation. We back this expectation with a highly competitive compensation plan featuring a $100,000 base salary and a $200,000 OTE. If you are a resilient self-starter ready to take your SaaS sales career to the next level and dominate your market, this is your arena.

Key Responsibilities
  • Command the full cycle: Manage complex sales cycles from strategic initial discovery all the way through rigorous negotiation and close.
  • Hunt relentlessly: Identify, prospect, and qualify new opportunities through high-volume outbound efforts while maximizing collaboration with your SDR team.
  • Build executive trust: Build deep, consultative relationships with key stakeholders and decision-makers across enterprise accounts.
  • Demonstrate value: Conduct tailored, high-impact product demos and deliver compelling presentations, both virtually and in-person.
  • Ensure seamless delivery: Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Implementation, and Customer Success to ensure flawless client onboarding.
  • Own your metrics: Maintain razor-sharp pipeline accuracy and forecasting within Hub Spot, consistently meeting and exceeding activity, pipeline, and revenue goals.
Qualifications
  • Former college, professional, or Olympic athlete, or military veteran.
  • You are a proven closer: 5+ years of SaaS closing experience with a track record of consistent quota attainment, backed by 6+ years of total sales experience.
  • You are a strategic prospector: Strong outbound skills—you don't wait for leads; you go out and build your own pipeline.
  • You have executive presence: Excellent communication, consultative selling, and presentation skills that command respect from industry leaders.
  • You are a road warrior: Willingness to travel quarterly for events, conferences, and critical in-market meetings to get face-to-face with prospects.
  • You are a self-starter: You bring curiosity, resilience, and an uncompromising drive to dominate your market.
  • Location Requirement: Must reside in either North Carolina or South Carolina.
