Position Summary:EverDriven Account Executives don't just sell - they lead. You'll operate as a business owner within your territory, driving complex, consultative sales cycles that make a real impact on how districts move students safely and efficiently every day.

This is a role for true self-starters - strategic thinkers who take full ownership of results, thrive in ambiguity, and are motivated by both competition and mission. You'll have the autonomy to shape your market, build relationships, and drive long-term district partnerships.
Whether your background is in SaaS, education technology, or K-12 operations, you bring a valuable perspective to our team. The common thread among our most successful AEs is their ability to learn fast, think critically, and sell through influence in a complex environment.

On-target earnings (OTE) generally fall between $120,000-$150,000 for strong performers. Final compensation will depend on factors such as location, experience, and the value you bring to the role.
