As an Account Executive at Skillshare, you’ll lead the charge on building our outbound enterprise sales process. We’ll look to your strategic and organizational expertise, competitive nature, and “team-first” attitude to build out processes that drive results and scale with us as we grow. We’re excited to welcome someone who can not only crush their quota, but work cross-functionally to identify new areas for revenue opportunities while doing so.

Our team is growing quickly and there’s a ton of sales potential for us to unlock. If you’re excited to roll up your sleeves and pitch a rapidly scaling, mission-driven startup with global impact, we’d love to meet you.

What you'll do:

• Unlock the outbound sales process
• Drive the full sales cycle, continuously seeking creative strategies to attain new business
• Surface new revenue opportunities and cultivate a strong pipeline
• Expertly pitch our Skillshare for Teams offering
• Meet (or exceed) quarterly and annual sales goals

Why we're excited about you:

• You’ve repeatedly met or exceeded quota in current and previous sales roles
• You’re innately resourceful - finding the next prospect gives you energy
• You’re a natural relationship builder and know the product inside and out
• You’re a self-starter comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
• You live to be organized + no detail escapes you
• You’ve got a competitive nature with a team player attitude
• You understand people and are able to negotiate and problem-solve autonomously
• You’re comfortable with Salesforce and LinkedIn Sales Navigator (a plus, not a must)

Why you're excited about us:

• Impact: You will have ownership over the outbound sales process - from creation, implementation and execution the team will look to you as the expert.
• Growth: We invest in our people. You’ll have room to wear a lot of hats and take on more responsibility over time.
• Our team: We have a passionate, talented and competitive team driven by results, but that isn’t afraid to have fun!
• Our mission: We’re doing work that matters – connecting lifelong learners around the world and empowering them to pursue their creativity.
• Flexibility: We believe that doing your best work means living a full life. That means different things for everyone, so we optimize for trust, invest to support remote teams, have an unlimited vacation policy (with a required minimum!), and encourage work-life balance.
