Account Executive, Expansion

Triple Whale

Responsibilities

  • Own expansion revenue across an assigned EMEA portfolio. Manage upsell and cross-sell opportunities from discovery and qualification through proposal, negotiation and close.
  • Build a proactive expansion pipeline. Use customer goals, adoption signals, account changes and conversations with Customer Success to identify and prioritise opportunities.
  • Sell against a specific business problem. Understand the customer’s current workflow, what isn’t working, who is affected and why solving it matters now.
  • Develop relationships beyond the original buyer. Engage founders, ecommerce leaders, marketing teams, finance stakeholders and other decision-makers where relevant.
  • Build credible business cases. Connect the proposed investment to outcomes the customer values, using agreed evidence and clear assumptions rather than broad promises.
  • Partner closely with Customer Success. Coordinate account plans and outreach, distinguish adoption problems from genuine expansion opportunities and avoid conflicting customer conversations.
  • Run relevant demonstrations and evaluations. Work with Solutions and product specialists to show how the proposed solution addresses the customer’s agreed priorities.
  • Manage the commercial process. Confirm budget, decision-makers, procurement requirements and timelines; maintain clear next steps and accurate forecasts.
  • Support a clean transition after the sale. Document the agreed scope, customer expectations and success criteria so implementation and adoption can follow.
  • Improve the EMEA expansion motion. Share recurring customer needs, objections and buying patterns with Sales, Customer Success, Marketing and Product

Requirements

  • Experience in quota-carrying B2B SaaS sales, expansion or commercial account management.
  • A track record of growing existing accounts through proactive selling, not only processing renewals or inbound upgrades.
  • Strong discovery skills: you can move from a feature request to the underlying business problem and qualify whether there is a real opportunity.
  • Confidence managing a full sales cycle, including demonstrations, business cases, negotiation and closing.
  • The ability to build relationships with both day-to-day users and senior budget holders.
  • Sound commercial judgement. You know when to pursue an opportunity, when to involve a specialist and when a customer needs support before another sales conversation.

Preferred

  • Experience selling ecommerce, marketing technology, analytics or AI software.
  • Familiarity with the commercial metrics ecommerce teams use, including customer acquisition cost, return on ad spend, lifetime value and profitability.
  • Additional languages relevant to the assigned EMEA territory.
