Account Executive (ON-SITE)
Charleston, SC
Overview: Account Executive runs a true full‑cycle sales role, you’re not just setting meetings, you’re owning the entire process. From prospecting and first outreach, to meeting the client, understanding their shipping needs, building the solution, closing the deal, and then managing that relationship long‑term, you see every part of the sale all the way through. This isn’t an SDR or BDR position; you’re the one driving revenue, building a book of business, and continuing to earn commission as your clients ship with you month after month.
What We’re Looking For: Are you passionate about sales and eager to drive results in a fast-paced, competitive environment? As an Account Executive, you’ll be the trusted partner for small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) who are looking for smarter, more efficient ways to streamline their operations. If you’re a self-starter with a knack for building relationships and solving problems, we want you on our team!
