About the Team
Mixpanel is building a vertical go-to-market motion — organizing enterprise sales by industry so we can sell in the buyer’s language, with their use cases, and with proof from companies they recognize.
This team is distinct from Mixpanel’s Named Account team, which owns renewals and growth on the existing customer base; this team’s mandate is net-new enterprise logos and expansion within a vertical.
About the Role
We’re hiring an Account Executive, Verticalized Sales to own growth within an industry vertical across North American markets. You’ll drive net-new enterprise pipeline and expansion within your vertical, running full-cycle enterprise deals from first meeting to close.
Beyond your own territory, you’ll build deep vertical expertise and put it to use — shaping the discovery questions, messaging, and competitive positioning your peers rely on, and feeding
what you learn in the field back into the team’s playbooks. This role suits someone who’s comfortable building in ambiguity, since the vertical model is still maturing and the playbooks are being built in real time.
Responsibilities
Drive net-new mid-market and enterprise pipeline within your assigned vertical(s) — sourcing, qualifying, and closing new Mixpanel customers, as well as new business units and subsidiaries within existing customers Drive expansion alongside Renewal Managers on renewal growth and Customer Value Architects on upsell opportunities in current business units or new subsidiaries Run a full-cycle enterprise sales process from first meeting to close, applyi
