This is a new business acquisition role If you consistently hit your number, and you're looking for a platform that actually delivers, Akkadian is building something worth your time.
Akkadian is looking for a true enterprise hunter, someone who knows how to break into large, complex organizations, navigate multi-stakeholder buying committees, and close six-figure software deals consistently.
If you're at your best when:
- The sales cycle is real (6-12 months)
- And winning actually means something
...this role is worth a serious look.
Why Top Enterprise Sellers Win at Akkadian - The platform actually works-and customers love it. Akkadian is widely viewed by customers as vastly superior to competitive UC provisioning solutions.
- Real enterprise problems. We sell into organizations with 10,000+ users, complex UC environments, and real Day-2 provisioning pain.
- Opportunity to maximize compensation. ~$100K average deal size, ~$1M+ new-license quota.
- Winnable verticals. We consistently win in large enterprise accounts like Healthcare and Government, where accuracy, compliance, and automation matter.
- Strong partner ecosystem. Alignment with partners is essential to success.
The RoleAs an Enterprise Sales Executive, you will drive net-new logo acquisition for Akkadian's UC automation platform.

- Marketing for demand generation & account-based marketing
- A strong partner ecosystem to build relationships and co-sell together
- A seasoned sales team to collaborate and learn from each other
What You'll Do Hunt and Close

- Close ~$100K+ (average deal size) with 6-12 month sales cycles
Run Real Enterprise Sales Cycles
- Navigate multi-stakeholder buying decision-makers and process
- Lead discovery that uncovers migration and provisioning risk, compliance exposure, and operational inefficiencies
- Position Akkadian as the strategic solution, not a feature comparison
Own Your Number
- Carry a ~$1M+ new-license quota

- Forecast accurately and operate with discipline in HubSpot

- Company-paid life and disability insurance
- 401(k) with generous match

RequirementsWho This Role is ForYou're likely a strong fit if you:
- Have 7+ years of enterprise SaaS sales experience
- Have personally closed large, complex deals into regulated or highly technical environments
- Are comfortable hunting into large enterprise organizations with limited inbound
- Bring executive presence and can hold your own with CIOs, IT leaders, and procurement
- Prefer environments where initiative is required and rewarded
- UC, UCaaS, or adjacent enterprise IT experience is strongly preferred because it accelerates time to quota.
Who Will Not Thrive Here (Important) This role is not a fit if you:
- Prefer farming or account maintenance over hunting
- Need heavy inbound to succeed
- Avoid complex deals or long sales cycles
- Wait for partners or marketing to create pipeline for you
- Expect marketing or BDRs to cold call and set appointments
BenefitsWe offer a fully remote environment, plus a competitive benefits package including medical, dental, vision, company-paid life insurance and disability policies, 401(k) with a generous matching program, and paid time off.
