We’re a SaaS startup based in Australia and we’re looking for an experienced and highly motivated Account Executive to join our sales team and drive revenue growth through strategic sales initiatives. You’ll get to work with a fun and supportive, fully remote team who are excited about creating a great product for our customers.
