Intrigue prospects. Drive growth. Achieve goals. 

Help drive growth as an integral part of our Business Development team.

The role you'll play:

​The CB Insights Account Executive will guide qualified prospects toward becoming new customers. You will spend the majority of your time demoing prospects on our web-based products and following up with them with an eye on closing new business. You will be product and industry savvy (venture capital and technology should get you excited), an independent worker, and excited about building and managing your own book of business. This is a unique sales opportunity to enter into a high-growth company that has found product-market fit, but which is (very) far from exhausting its addressable market.

  • Dig in and be hands on in learning the product, and leverage your presentation skills via web-based product demonstrations
  • Achieve sales targets through identifying, qualifying, and closing business
  • Maintain updated sales records and prospect status in salesforce.com with an eye toward a balanced pipeline
  • Collaborate across both sales and product teams to ensure prospects get timely, conducive information that increases product knowledge & interest
  • Forecast your personal sales activity, revenue achievement, and update activity/prospect status in regular sales meetings

What you bring to the table:

  • Bachelors degree or higher required
  • 4-5+ years experience selling software or technology solutions, services, or applications
  • Must have SaaS experience
  • Strong experience building a pipeline, qualifying, and identifying deals you can close
