Enterprise Account Executive

Enterprise Account Executive – Job Description

InterPayments Culture

We're a 100% remote, US-based team.  We promote supreme trust in one another to achieve our mission of helping merchants.  We do whatever it takes to meet deadlines, achieve goals, and obsess over customer needs.  At the same time, we ruthlessly prioritize so that our precious, invaluable time is efficiently and flexibly used towards its best use.  This includes meaningful work and all the things that make for a meaningful life outside of work.

Team members who thrive here embody a Team First mentality; they enjoy shared success, find deep meaning in collaboration, and find joy in communicating with and learning from others. They are Impact-Driven; they have deep internal motivation and find personal meaning and pride in learning new things, forging new paths, and solving problems well. They are also Structured Decision Makers who think through first/second/third order impacts, constantly weigh pros/cons, and know when to move fast alone and when to get help from others.

Role and Purpose

You will educate, guide, and sell complex B2B enterprise software primarily to medium- and enterprise merchants in the US and Canada.  You’ll engage in a full cycle sales motion and build strong, long-lasting relationships with Fortune 1000 companies.

Our sales motion and team are unique.  We distribute via direct sales to medium- and large merchants and through partnerships.  Direct sales drives partnerships.  Partnerships drive more direct sales.  Our sales motion is a virtuous flywheel.  Our direct enterprise sales group and partnerships group are highly collaborative.  In short, we are “one sales team.”

Our unique structure offers you the ability to make meaningful impact towards our corporate goals and mission.  You will drive direct sales to medium- and enterprise-businesses in both the US and Canada.  As a complex enterprise sale, you thrive on helping medium- and enterprise merchants achieve their goals by building trust.  You enjoy helping merchants solve their problems through education and consulting.  You’ll often work in tight collaboration with our partnership team to enable merchants’ third-party vendors.

You relish a greenfield opportunity.  There are no territories or vertical restrictions.  You will work with all types of merchants and their partners.  You will work cross-functionally and collaboratively with our sales engineers, partnerships group, and the CEO.  Our entire team stands ready to meet customers where they are.

You are deeply motivated by doing whatever it takes to help customers solve their problems.  You find satisfaction turning a customer's uncertainty or anxiety into relief.  You believe a consultative, educational, and highly transparent sales process is the best way to help customers achieve their goals.  You value building trust and long-lasting relationships.  You relish the challenge of not knowing an answer but working to find one.  You are a trustworthy and dependable advocate.  People know they can rely upon you. 

You’ll make our company better.  You’ll help create a world class sales organization by improving our go-to-market strategy and day-to-day sales process.  You’ll have key input into strategic revenue growth decisions and hold us accountable.  You'll have direct input in the product and product marketing roadmap.  You’ll be part of a collaborative team that’s most interested in building great new things that solve merchant and partner problems.

This position will report to the VP of Sales.  It will be home office based and may require up to 15-25% travel.
