About the role

Hi, my name is Kendall, Director of Sales here at Customer.io, and I'm looking for a Senior Account Executive to join my team. This is a full-cycle sales role where you'll own your number end to end. You'll have SDR and BDR support and qualified inbound demand from marketing, but I'm really looking for someone who sees outbound as their edge - not a last resort. Pipeline ownership is a big part of how we measure success on this team.

Some things you'll do...

Drive new business through a mix of self-sourced outbound and inbound leads; run discovery calls (qualifying through MEDDPICC) and own the full sales cycle to close
Work closely with SDR and BDR support, reviewing account targeting, sales strategy, and prospecting progress to assist in scheduling new meetings with key brands within our ICP
Schedule and perform online demos with qualified prospects
Uncover key business needs and problems, match Customer.io's solutions and features
Own your key numbers! Report present and past sales, trends and costs, estimated and realized revenue, and administrative commitments for management
Own your outbound motion - consistently self-source pipeline and take pride in building opportunities from the ground up
Explain and demonstrate the features and merits of our products and services through value-based selling
Leverage AI tools to work smarter - whether that's prospecting, research, call prep, or follow-up, we want people who are actively incorporating AI into how they sell
