The Opportunity

We are building a next-generation field sales organization, and the Sr Account Executive is at the center of that vision. This is not a transactional role. It is a consultative, solutions-oriented position for a seasoned seller who can walk into a dealership’s GM or dealer principal office, quickly diagnose their business challenges, and architect a multi-product solution across our full portfolio.

This is a high-visibility individual contributor role with significant earning potential, direct field presence, and a clear mandate: elevate how we sell, deepen how we partner, and grow revenue across your dealer portfolio.

The Sr Account Executive is a level above our Field Account Executive. Candidates must demonstrate mastery of the full DRIVE framework — not just meeting criteria, but consistently modeling each dimension at a senior level.
