Account Executive - Commercial

This position is based out of New York City, NY.

OVERVIEW

Modern Treasury is hiring for Commercial Account Executives to join our Sales team. This is a Strategic closing role in which you’ll be engaging with several personas (business and technical) across multiple levels of an organization including the CFO, CTO, CPO and COO throughout the sales cycle. The average deal size is six-figures in the Commercial segment, and we expect Account Executives in this role to build strong business cases with our prospective customers to justify the ROI. 

You will own the relationship with prospects, both inbound and outbound-generated, guiding them to happy Modern Treasury Customers. In this role, you will also be expected to foster relationships with our existing Commercial customers to ensure they’re getting the most value out of the partnership. You will be responsible for any Customer renewals and cross-sells. 

You should be excited about developing a deep product understanding so you can be comfortable articulating how companies can leverage our APIs & webhooks to automate their workflows, and improve their customers’ experience. While you will be owning the relationship with prospects, you will be partnering with Sales Engineers to assist with the technical evaluation.

As an Account Executive at Modern Treasury you will have the unique opportunity to help set the team culture, and make a real impact in a dynamic and growing company.

REQUIREMENTS

• 3+ years of Sales experience in closing deals

• Ability to understand Modern Treasury’s API and clearly communicate it to both a Technical audience and Finance teams.

• A track record of success in driving consistent activity, pipeline development and quota achievement

• Superior verbal and written communication, presentation and relationship management skills

• Ability to thrive in a fast paced, dynamic environment. We are a startup and need people who are ok doing things outside their traditional job description.

• BA/BS required
