    Senior Account Executive - UHV Payors
    Remote (required to live in one of the following states: AZ, CO, FL, GA, IL, MI, MN, NY, NC, TX, UT,VT)

    Qualifications:

    • 4+ years of proven success in outbound sales and high-level account management, specifically closing net-new business.
    • Strong experience in a Mid-Market sales motion, demonstrating the ability to navigate longer, more complex deal cycles and break into executive teams (VP to C-Suite).
    • Exceptional sales acumen with a deep command of pipeline management. You require minimal hand-holding, ramp up quickly, and know how to independently unblock deals.
    • Skilled in selling complex solutions, including SaaS, cash flow tools, or payments products, ideally in a startup or fintech environment. Bonus: A strong understanding of the payments ecosystem and the high-volume credit cards space is highly preferred and will give you a major edge.
    • A track record of consistently exceeding targets with clear, quantifiable achievements (e.g., % over quota, revenue booked, average deal size).
    • Advanced outbound thinker: You don't just execute cadences; you build highly strategic, multi-threaded outbound campaigns to crack into target accounts.
    • A collaborative team player who proactively shares winning tactics and market feedback with peers, Product, Marketing, and Enablement.
    • Experience with our target verticals (Wholesalers, Retail, Software, Logistics, and Construction) is a strong plus.
    • Power user of sales tools like Salesforce, Outreach, Gong, Apollo, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator.&l
