Account Executive
Även känt som: Enterprise Account Executive · New Business Executive
Works on new customers in a software or technology setting, takes over qualified leads, and moves them through a defined sales process to a signed contract.
The account executive works with a defined sales method, fixed stages in the customer system and a team that supplies leads. Unlike an account manager, the role focuses on new logos rather than on managing an existing portfolio. Selection looks at quota attainment without checking how much pipeline was supplied, so candidates from a well fed market stall in a thin one.
