About Us
At Close, we’re building the sales communication platform of the future. With our roots as the very first sales CRM to include built-in calling, we're leading the industry in sales automation—helping companies to close more deals, faster than ever. Since our founding in 2013, we've grown to become a profitable, 100% globally distributed ~55 person team that is dedicated to building a product our customers love.
We’re looking to add an experienced Account Executive to help us build the most efficient inbound sales funnel in SaaS.
About You
As an Account Executive you’d be responsible for contacting, qualifying, and closing inbound 14-day free trial signups into successful Close customers. Ideally, we’re looking for an Account Executive that has experience in the B2B SaaS sales ecosystem, is resilient, has a developed sense of self-accountability, and wants to continue their pursuit of mastering the art of asking powerful sales questions.
This isn’t your typical software sales job. As a salesperson that sells our own sales software (say that 5 times fast), your experience in both using and selling Close every day has a tremendous impact on the company and our customers. It’s a responsibility we take very seriously.
You’d be reporting to the Director of Sales, who reports to the CEO.
