    About this role

    Cordance is dedicated to accelerating the growth of vertically focused business-to-business (B2B) software-as-a-service (SaaS) companies through acquisition and long-term tactical and financial guidance. We’re experienced operators and subject-matter experts with a passion for software and building businesses.

    We partner with founders to help them scale their businesses and realize their companies’ full potential. We look for businesses with strong leadership and high potential for profitable growth, and work together to increase year-over-year revenue, company efficiency, and impact. Cordance envisions that all companies we work with achieve their full potential.

    We embrace what makes each company great and build on those foundations. We believe in elevating a company as it scales, delivering dignity to the organization and its employees, and sharing a passion for building a legacy. Position Overview Cordance is seeking a driven Account Executive focused on new business acquisition to accelerate growth across our portfolio of software companies.

    This role requires a consultative seller who can uncover customer needs, articulate business value, build strong relationships, and confidently manage the full sales cycle from prospecting and discovery through negotiation and close. As an Account Executive, you’ll own the full sales cycle—from targeted prospecting to executive presentations and contract execution.

    You’ll thrive in a fast-paced, growth-minded environment where collaboration, accountability, and strategic execution define success.
