Full Job Description
WHAT YOU'LL DO

As a Senior Account Executive on our Financial Services team, you will own the full sales cycle from prospecting to closing to renewals. You'll be working as a relentless "hunter" to identify, prioritize, reach out, and ultimately close new business. Typical deal size ranges from $50K to $500K annually. You will also be responsible for "farming" and managing 8-14 Braze customer accounts alongside our Customer Success team, operating as a trusted commercial and strategic advisor as they look to Braze to grow and scale their businesses.

Join a diverse, dynamic, and tight-knit team that's working directly with Marketing, Product, and Technical executives and their teams to help them forge human connections between consumers and the brands they love. Our team has a variety of backgrounds, but we are united by a commitment to mutual collaboration, a growth mindset, and a relentless pursuit of success.

WHO YOU ARE
  • You have at least 3-5 years of New Business sales experience selling SaaS solutions that involve technically integrated products
  • You excel at generating and managing your own pipeline, thinking both strategically and creatively about how to drive desired outcomes through effective and persistent outreach. You're on top of many moving parts
  • Your customers describe your selling as consultative and human. You're a natural storyteller and an attentive listener
  • You demonstrate the mechanics of a value-first conversation, including the steps necessary to get there: strong and ongoing discovery, a solid understanding of the business pain, what outcomes they are hoping to achieve, and how Braze is best positioned to provide differentiated value
  • You're analytical and data-driven. Your approach is grounded in examples and defined by testing and iterating. You harbor a desire to understand and make sense of complex systems and concepts
  • You know how to help buyers navigate large SaaS investments, including mobilizing distributed, global organizations and accelerating cycles. Among many stakeholders, you identify and influence key people
  • Being a fast-growth company, things here change pretty fast. You're comfortable learning new things (tech, process, people) and navigating high-change environments
  • Bonus if you've sold to or worked for Financial Services
  • Bonus if you've sold to Growth/Marketing teams, or have a background in analytics, CRM, marketing automation, data storage/agility, or content marketing solutions

For candidates based in the United States, the pay range for this position at the start of employment is expected to be between $80,000 and $100,000/year, with an expected On Target Earnings (OTE) between $160,000 and $200,000/year (including bonus or commission). Your exact offer may vary depending on multiple individualized factors, including market location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. In addition to cash compensation, this role qualifies for a comprehensive Total Rewards package that includes equity grants of restricted stock (RSUs) so that you will own a piece of our company.
