Senior Account Executive - High-Growth Infrastructure SaaS (FED & SLED)
Location: USA (Remote - East Coast or Central preferred)
Compensation: $110,000 - $150,000 Base | double OTE | Equity
The Opportunity
Our client is a venture-backed technology leader recognised as one of the fastest-growing players in the Global Aviation and Transportation sector. They have pioneered a 100% cloud-native ecosystem that is currently replacing decades-old legacy hardware in major travel hubs worldwide.
By moving mission-critical operations away from "on-premise" constraints and into an AI-driven, modular platform, they have become the go-to alternative for stakeholders looking to modernise the traveller experience. We are seeking a heavy-hitting Senior Account Executive to lead their North American "New Business" expansion.
The Role
This is a sophisticated "Hunter" position requiring a high level of "SaaS-evangelism." You will not just be selling software; you will be leading a digital transformation for organisations historically tethered to legacy giants.
Key Responsibilities:
- Strategic Hunting: Own the full enterprise sales cycle, focusing on high-value "new logo" acquisition within the public sector.
- Public Sector Navigation: Manage complex procurement processes at the municipal, county, and regional levels.
- Methodology-Led Closing: Utilise MEDDPICC to navigate multi-stakeholder environments and ensure accurate forecasting.
- Ecosystem Management: Partner with major purchasing cooperatives and RFP teams to streamline large-scale government contracts.
- Market Leadership: Act as a "trusted advisor" to buyers, demonstrating the ROI of transitioning from legacy hardware to a platform-based SaaS model.
What You Bring
- Public Sector Pedigree: A proven track record of selling high-ticket SaaS solutions (not hardware or components) into US Government (FED/SLED) or Airport accounts.
- Pure Hunter DNA: You excel at building your own pipeline from zero and have a "no-excuses" approach to territory expansion.
- Complex Cycle Mastery: Experience handling long, bureaucratic sales processes with multiple technical and political influences.
- Framework Discipline: You are highly structured and have successfully applied MEDDIC or similar methodologies to close 6-to-7 figure deals.
- Infrastructure Fluency: You understand the mission-critical nature of selling software that powers "the real world."
