The Role
The Enterprise Account Executive at Xeneta will engage senior decision-makers, educate clients on freight procurement, solve commercial challenges, and collaborate with various teams to shape strategy in a high-growth environment.
Summary Generated by Built In
At Xeneta, we’re changing the way freight is bought and sold—making the industry more transparent, data-driven, and strategic. We’re now looking for an Enterprise Account Executive.
This is more than a sales role—it’s an opportunity to work at the cutting edge of supply chain innovation. You’ll be collaborating with leading global brands, tackling complex commercial challenges, and influencing how an entire industry operates.
Location: New Jersey/New York hybrid (office in Jersey City). 

Key Responsibilities
  • Engage & Connect
    You’ll build meaningful relationships with senior decision-makers at some of the world’s largest companies. By deeply understanding their supply chain complexities and procurement workflows, you’ll help them unlock value through Xeneta’s platform. Along the way, you’ll sharpen your skills in value-based selling, return-on-investment analysis, and executive communication.
  • Educate & Inform
    You’ll be part of an innovation that’s reshaping freight procurement. By combining your market knowledge with our data insights, you’ll become a credible voice in the industry—guiding stakeholders toward smarter, data-led decisions.
  • Be a Consultative Partner
    This is a role for someone who wants to solve, not just sell. You’ll work alongside your clients to identify inefficiencies, uncover opportunities, and achieve business goals with Xeneta’s solutions. You’ll grow your ability to think strategically, influence change, and become a trusted advisor.
  • Collaborate to Succeed
    At Xeneta, your voice matters. You’ll work closely with teams across Product, Marketing, and Customer Success to refine our offering and share insights from the front lines. You’ll see firsthand how a high-growth tech company adapts and evolves—and you’ll help shape that evolution.
  • Shape Strategy & Scale
    Your feedback and insights will directly influence our go-to-market strategy. You’ll not just execute the playbook—you’ll help write it.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
Your Background
  • 5–7+ years of experience in Enterprise SaaS B2B sales, ideally with experience in long-cycle, value-based selling.

  • Preferably experience with working in a fast-paced start-up or scale-up environment.
  • Comfort and credibility when engaging with VP- and C-level executives on strategic initiatives.
Your Sales Toolkit
  • Strong command of Salesforce and data-informed sales approaches.
  • Experience using modern sales tools (e.g., Gong, ZoomInfo, LinkedIn Navigator, 6sense, UserGems).
  • A proven ability to navigate long deal cycles and prioritize your time and energy on what moves the needle.
Your Personal Style
  • Goal-oriented and driven, with a strong sense of ownership and pride in your work.
  • Naturally builds trust and rapport with senior stakeholders.
  • Organized, adaptable, and energized by dynamic, high-growth environments.
  • A collaborative mindset - you know that great outcomes come from great teamwork.

Benefits
  • The published range reflects the base salary for this role. The total compensation also includes a variable, performance-based component, following a 50/50 split between base and variable pay (base representing 50% of total OTE). The commission is uncapped. 
  • You will be a part of a growing company that is currently redefining a multi-billion-dollar industry through a period of unprecedented upheaval. Your work will have significant impact on this.
  • You will work together with highly motivated colleagues who are curious to learn something new from you, and to teach you what they are good at.
  • You will enjoy our generous vacation plan: 5-10 extra paid days off around public holidays throughout the year, in addition to 5 weeks of paid vacation.
  • You can educate yourself during work hours: you can spend several hours each month attending courses, reading books, getting involved in communities. 
  • We value work-life balance, and we want to make sure you can spend quality time with your family or enjoy your hobbies when your workday is over.
  • We will help you grow your career: our managers will help identify areas of improvement for you, either if you want to grow into a specialist in your field, or if you want to eventually go into leadership / management direction.
