Account Executive - Enterprise

ProductNow

who is hungry, resourceful, and quick to learn, with a record of owning deals. You keep a high operating tempo, you are comfortable doing the unglamorous work, and you want to take over more and more of a working founder-led motion. This is a hands-on individual contributor role, not a management role.

About ProductNow

We're a tight-knit, collaborative team on a mission to make knowledge accessible to everyone in an organization — building the durable layer where decisions, context, and institutional know-how live so no one is left hunting through Slack or piecing together what happened.

If you love working where curiosity is contagious, ideas travel fast, and the work you ship tangibly changes how teams think and build, you'll fit right in.

Responsibilities

  • 🚀 Work alongside the founders on high-profile enterprise accounts, from discovery to close
  • 📬 Learn the founder-led playbook (already working and producing revenue), then run it and improve it
  • 🎯 Build target-account lists and buyer maps across industries, and run outbound and follow-up, using AI tools to research and personalize faster
  • 🎤 Choose the right conferences and events, then prepare, start conversations, and follow up fast
  • 🧩 Run discovery and tailored demos, and turn messy customer problems into a clear business case and next step
  • 🛡️ Work through legal, security, and procurement with founder support
  • 🧭 Know when to bring in founders, product, or technical teammates, and stay the quarterback on your deals
  • 🌱 Build your own book: source, open, close, and expand customers you own
  • 🔁 Feed customer learning into ICP, messaging, demos, and product
  • 🗂️ Keep CRM, follow-up, and the forecast clean and current, with AI doing the busywork

Requirements

  • hands-on builder-seller
  • This is a chance to learn enterprise selling at close range with the founders and help land important customers. You start alongside them, take on more of the cycle as you ramp, then apply the same proven playbook to build a customer base of your own.

You may be a good fit if you

  • Bachelor's degree in a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 4–12+ years of professional experience in B2B sales, including time carrying a number in any industry. Strong early-career and seasoned enterprise sellers are both welcome.
  • You have sourced, advanced, and closed real deals. Experience selling complex, multi-stakeholder solutions to mid-market and enterprise buyers is a plus.
  • You start from a blank list: research, messages, calls, events, follow-through.
  • You learn a new product fast, can explain it in plain words to buyers in any industry, run a strong first conversation, and know when to bring in product or engineering.
  • You are self-directed, write clearly, and keep accountability after a handoff.
  • You value hunger, learning speed, and ownership over title, and you value different perspectives.

Preferred
