We’re hiring a Growth Account Executive to own the full sales cycle for Mainstay’s platform and services portfolio. You’ll land new mid-market customers (SFR/BTR operators, proptechs, and lenders) through our seat-license entry point, then cross-sell our full suite of services (Tax Management, HOA, Data Products, Mail Triage, Revenue Management) to grow accounts over time. This is a quota-carrying role where you will co-author the mid-market sales playbook alongside our VP of Sales. What works, what doesn’t, and what scales will come from your reps.

This role is remote based in New York. Candidates must be located in New York or willing to relocate (relocation assistance provided).

• Own prospecting through close for mid-market accounts ($10K–$100K+ ACV). Run discovery, product demos, and commercial negotiations across multiple product lines.

• Land new customers through our seat-license platform, then cross-sell Tax, HOA, Data, Mail, and Revenue Management services to grow accounts into full-service relationships over 12-18 months.

• Partner with senior leadership on complex or larger deals. You bring the account context and commercial strategy; they bring executive relationships.

• Build and maintain a disciplined pipeline in HubSpot. Keep it accurate and current: no stale deals, no inflated stages, no fiction in the forecast.

• Co-author the mid-market sales playbook. Messaging, sequencing, objection handling, pricing strategy. If it doesn’t exist yet, you build it.

• 1-4 years of B2B SaaS closing experience (AE or senior SDR ready to close)

• Experience selling multiple products or services into the same account. You understand cross-sell sequencing and land-and-expand sales motions.

• You can run a technical demo, answer data methodology questions, and hold your own with operators who think in spreadsheets.

• You would rather build the process than wait for someone to hand you one.

• HubSpot proficiency. You keep your pipeline clean because you use it to sell, not because someone told you to.

• PropTech, real estate technology, fintech, or data platform experience

• Familiarity with the single-family rental or build-to-rent ecosystem

• Experience selling into institutional real estate operators, lenders, or investors

• Experience with seat-based or usage-based pricing models

• You have sold into complex, multi-product environments where the initial deal was a wedge into a larger relationship.

• You get energy from building something early. Ambiguity does not slow you down; you add structure to it and keep moving.

• You are coachable. You ask for feedback, absorb it, and adjust your approach. You do not confuse confidence with rigidity.

• You earn trust across teams without needing a formal mandate. When you need help from product, engineering, or ops, people respond because you have built credibility with them.

• You need a defined playbook before you can start selling. We are building the playbook. That is the job.

• Your best work happened at a company with 10x the headcount and budget. This is a ~150-person Series A company. Constraint is the default, and the people who thrive here treat it as a feature.

• You optimize for personal quota attainment over team outcome. We co-sell, share context, and build together.

• You rely on charm over preparation. Our buyers are analytical operators who manage large portfolios. They expect specificity.
