💼 Account Executive – Strategic Accounts

Location: Remote – USA | Team: Sales
Seniority Level: Senior Individual Contributor | Reports to: Director of Strategic Accounts

Drive Strategy. Lead Projects. Close Big Deals.

At Pax8, we’re rewriting the rules of cloud commerce — and we’re looking for a seasoned Account Executive who’s ready to take the wheel with our most strategic accounts. If you’re energized by building relationships, identifying growth opportunities, and driving cross-functional projects that actually move the needle, you might’ve just found your next big win.

This isn’t entry-level sales. You’ll bring senior-level experience and insight to manage complex accounts, work cross-functionally, and lead strategic initiatives across the sales department. You’ll play an essential role in scaling our Cloud Marketplace, one high-impact account at a time.

🧩 What You’ll Do

  • Drive revenue growth by aligning with strategic accounts in your territory, uncovering cross-sell and standardization opportunities.

  • Support internal sales reps by helping them close deals faster and smarter — and leading initiatives that improve overall sales efficiency.

  • Build and nurture long-term relationships with customers, through virtual and in-person meetings (some travel required).

  • Develop and present persuasive sales proposals that inspire confidence and drive repeat business.

  • Lead special projects across the sales department, including initiatives with vendor partners, sales tools, and onboarding support.

  • Stay plugged into industry trends, including key market shifts and acquisition activity (yes, ChannelE2E will be your new best friend).

  • Deliver internal product trainings and share strategic insight with the Director of Strategic Accounts.

✅ What You Bring to the Table

  • 7+ years of experience in a relevant sales or account management role, ideally in the tech or SaaS space.

  • A proven track record of consistently meeting or exceeding sales targets — you’ve done it before, and you’re ready to do it again.

  • Deep experience in or exposure to the Learning Management System (LMS) ecosystem.

  • Excellent communication and persuasion skills — you can pitch, present, and negotiate with clarity and confidence.

  • You’re not just a seller — you’re a strategist. You think ahead, see connections, and know how to drive value beyond the deal.

  • Ability to manage multiple initiatives, run with high-priority projects, and execute without micromanagement.

  • Comfortable navigating organizational complexity and influencing across departments.

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience required.

  • Microsoft Certification (or willingness to obtain one within 6 months — we’ll support you every step of the way).

🎯 What Success Looks Like

In Your First 90 Days:

  • You’ll be fully ramped on Pax8’s platform, territory, and accounts.
