Account Executive - Stockholm

Hey you, looking at this job! You already know what being an Account Executive is all about. The role description and expectations here will not surprise you. That is why instead I want to start off with what is different:

  • The Product. Our strong and scalable product, a leading marketing intelligence platform, delivers true value to our customers.

  • The Market. The digital marketing industry is projected to grow at an unprecedented rate of over 11% per year, reaching over $640 billion by 2027. Marketing and data analytics are on every company's radar.

  • The Timing. You’re joining a pre-IPO scale-up.

  • The Growth. We are growing and historically we have had a lot of horizontal and vertical movement in the company.

You will get the chance to make an impact and grow with Funnel as we grow. We offer a workplace where you will be empowered to take responsibility while being supported by the organization. We dream big, start small, and scale quickly.

What you will do:

Your main objective will be to create, build, manage, and close sales opportunities. Some of your responsibilities as an Account Executive will include:

  • Build and cultivate relationships with key stakeholders in prospect accounts

  • Inbound opportunity qualification, discovery, and execution, with a mix of fast-paced and complex sales cycles

  • Lead sources include inbound, partners, product and outbound

  • Conduct customer presentations, demos, and negotiations with prospect decision-makers

  • Record, document, and track sales activity and customer data in CRM and other systems

  • Close collaboration with our Sales & Business Development, Marketing and Customer Success teams

  • Adoption and use of repeatable sales methodology, frameworks, and toolkits to drive repeatable, scalable sales motions


Who you are:

  • Grit - ability to focus on the long-term goal with strong dedication and endurance.

  • Team player - you have a “we before me” mentality with a focus on teamwork.

  • Closer/Hunter - this is what drives you with a real passion for sales, a “no” from a customer can’t change that!

  • Analytical - you quickly understand the customers’ pain points and see the best long-term solution rather than quick fixes.

  • Curious - you want to know what you do not and understand more about what you already know.

  • Challenger - uncomfortable conversations do not faze you. You can walk the line between being easy to buy from and sometimes using constructive tension to challenge your prospects.

Skills and experiences:

  • 4+ years of AE experience in B2B software sales in the Midmarket space (SaaS sales is a big plus)

  • A proven track record of consistently hitting your sales quotas

  • Strong communication skills and proficiency in verbal and written English

It’s a bonus if you have the following:

  • Major European languages, in particular, French and German

  • Have previous experience selling to media agencies / MarTech
