Account Executive

Role Overview

• Own the full sales cycle
• Bring in and activate an existing book of business; you should be able to open doors on day one with relationships you've already built in addition to prospecting, qualifying, and closing new business
• Run discovery calls that help prospects understand their AI visibility risk: their Share-of-Prompt score, where they're losing ground to competitors, and what it's costing them
• Deliver compelling demos of the Emberos platform: Scout's monitoring data, Pilot's Fix Pack predictions, Flow's automated execution, and translate technical capability into business outcomes
• Build and manage a pipeline using a combination of outbound prospecting, executive partnerships, events, and referrals
• Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals through procurement, legal, and budget approval cycles
• Own the handoff to Customer Success, ensuring every new client enters onboarding with clear success metrics and aligned expectations
• Build the sales function; Work directly with the CEO and Partnerships team on early strategic accounts and design partner conversations; Develop and refine the sales playbook: discovery framework, objection handling, competitive positioning, and ROI narrative; Feed market intelligence back to Product and Marketing: what objections come up, what resonates, what the market is ready to hear; Help define the ICP (ideal customer profile), target account list, and the criteria that separate a strong prospect from a weak one
• Become a category expert; Develop deep fluency in AI visibility: Share-of-Prompt, Brand Ownership, Category Dominance, Intent Expansion, and how Emberos' Brand Knowledge Graph creates a compounding competitive advantage for clients; Be able to walk a CMO through what it means that their brand has a certain Share-of-Prompt percentage while competitors are at higher range, and why that gap is accelerating.

Requirements

• 4+ years of B2B sales experience, with a track record of closing complex, high-value deals in SaaS, MarTech, AdTech, or an adjacent technology category
• Proven ability to run consultative, solution-oriented sales cycles: you sell outcomes and features
• Experience selling into marketing, brand, or digital leadership (CMOs, VPs of Marketing, Brand Directors, Heads of Digital)
• Comfortable selling a new category or creating urgency around a problem that isn't yet on a prospect's radar
• Strong discovery skills: you ask questions that change how a prospect thinks, not just questions that qualify a budget
• Demonstrated ability to build pipeline independently, not just work inbound leads
• Excellent written and verbal communication; you can run an executive-level meeting and write a sharp follow-up that moves a deal forward
• Nice to Have: Experience in MarTech, AdTech, digital advertising, or programmatic; Familiarity with AI, data platforms, or analytics products; Experience at an early-stage startup where you helped define and build the sales motion; Background selling to agencies (holding companies, independents) or working within agency relationships; Understanding of SEO, content marketing, or brand intelligence: you understand the category Emberos is replacing; Existing relationships with senior marketing decision-makers at enterprise brands or agencies.
