Role Overview

As an Account Executive, you manage a territory that includes target-accounts and an existing book of business that has companies with 1,000 - 3000 employees. Your primary focus is hunting new business opportunities, building sales pipeline, and driving growth within the Commercial sector. You are also responsible for upselling into the existing account base, leveraging our Extended Access Management platform.

Expectations of this Role

This is a field-based sales role. That means you are expected to be regularly engaged in customer-facing activities, including in-person meetings, events, and other travel as required to effectively support your territory.

Preferable Territory Locations:

• Austin
• Dallas
• Chicago

• Kansas City
• Atlanta
• Washington DC
• Charlotte
• Miami
• Jacksonville
• Tampa
• Ft. Lauderdale
• NYC
• Boston
• Philadelphia
• Seattle
• Los Angeles
• San Francisco

Your primary work location will be your home office, but your role requires a lot of mobility and flexibility. Travel within your assigned territory, and occasionally outside of it, will be a part of your job, and you are responsible for managing your schedule in a way that works for the company and you.
