• Product Expertise: Gain deep knowledge of Middesk’s offerings and how they provide value across standard and emerging use cases.

• End-to-End Sales Process: Lead the entire sales process—from SDR-sourced leads through detailed solution evaluations with Solutions Engineering to ongoing support with Account Management for long-term growth.

• Customer Advocacy: Build strong relationships with existing customers, advocate for their needs internally, and support Account Management in driving expansion opportunities.

What We’re Looking For:

• Enterprise Sales Experience: 6+ years in a quota-carrying Account Executive role in B2B software, with experience managing high-value accounts.

• Industry Knowledge: 3+ years of experience targeting FinTech or Financial Services clients, with a background in fraud, compliance, or identity preferred.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Proven track record working effectively with GTM and product teams to align on strategic goals and deliver exceptional customer outcomes.

• Adaptability in Ambiguity: Comfortable navigating the fast-paced and evolving environment of an early-stage GTM organization, with a proactive, impact-driven mindset.
