After 15+ years of success as a boutique agency, we’re ready for our next big leap — hiring our first Principal Sales Account Executive. This will include understanding current sales tools and approaches as well as providing suggestions and input to improve these capabilities.

This is a hunter seat: you will not inherit a book of business, you will not be handed inbound, and you will not have an SDR. What you bring to Day 1 is your network, your judgment, and the discipline to turn both into revenue. What defines our values? A commitment to quality that’s earned us a 100% referenceable client list.

Strong partnerships based on trust and integrity. And a passion for solving complex business challenges through custom cloud applications. From retail and wellness to airlines, supply chain, and financial services, our clients span diverse industries but share a need for innovative solutions.

As our first Principal Sales Account Executive, you’ll have the chance to create new paths — introducing our market-ready offers to an expanding customer base of mid-market and enterprise buyers, and closing six-figure engagements from your own network within your first two quarters. We prize problem-solving skills over fancy titles.

And we strive to make each other better through open communication and mentorship. If you’re an inspiring sales leader eager to roll up your sleeves and be part of building something special, we want to hear from you.
