Job Title: Senior Account Executive
Location: Liberty Street, Manhattan
Salary: $100,000 - $120,000 Base | Year 1 OTE $180,000 + | Uncapped Commission
Join One of the World’s Leading B2B Growth & Events Businesses
At GDS Group, we help the world’s biggest technology brands connect with senior decision-makers through market-leading events, digital experiences and innovative growth solutions.
With offices across New York, Miami, Little Rock and Bristol, we operate at the intersection of technology, media, sales and innovation — partnering with global enterprises such as AWS, InterSystems, Google, Intel and IBM - to drive transformation, build pipeline and create real commercial impact.
This is not a traditional sales role. It’s an opportunity to work with emerging technologies, engage directly with C-suite executives and accelerate your career within a fast-paced international business.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Uncapped earning potential with realistic Year 1 OTE of $180K+
- International career opportunities across our global offices
- Work with some of the world’s most innovative technology brands
- Clear progression pathways into senior sales and leadership roles
- High-performance culture with quarterly incentives, prizes and rewards
- Exposure to AI, cybersecurity, cloud, data, digital transformation and emerging tech markets
- Weekly wellness classes and a vibrant New York environment
- Prime New York location — 5 minutes from World Trade Centre
What You’ll Be Doing
- Identifying and engaging senior decision-makers across global technology markets
- Building new business relationships through strategic outreach, networking and consultative selling
- Working directly with innovative technology vendors and enterprise organisations
- Generating commercial opportunities and contributing to large-scale client campaigns
- Articulating GDS Group’s value proposition with confidence and credibility
- Becoming a trusted commercial partner to clients operating at the forefront of digital transformation
What We’re Looking For
- You’re ambitious, commercially driven, and energised by winning new business.
- Ideal candidates will have:
- 4+ years’ B2B sales or business development experience
- Strong cold outreach and prospecting capability (phone, LinkedIn, email)
- Confidence engaging senior stakeholders and C-level executives
- Excellent communication and presentation skills
- A proactive, resilient and target-driven mindset
- Strong organisation and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment
- Most importantly, we’re looking for people with ambition, personality and the hunger to build a successful commercial career.
Why GDS Group?
We’re a globally recognised business trusted by leading brands to create meaningful business connections and transformative commercial experiences.
