Major Account Executive

Hireology
Chicago, IL Full Time
POSTED ON 6/6/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 7/5/2026
Hireology is a 15-year market leader in HR technology, trusted by thousands of businesses to help them hire and build outstanding teams. We’re growing fast—and we’re looking for a Major Account Executive to own a defined territory and make it their own.

This is a full-cycle, new business role. You’ll build your pipeline from the ground up and own every stage of the deal—from first outreach to signed contract.

What You’ll Do

Own the full sales cycle from cold prospecting to close—no hand-offs, no shortcuts.

Build and protect a pipeline with enough coverage to consistently exceed quota.

Hunt new business through strategic outreach, trade shows, conferences, and every channel available.

Deliver sharp, compelling demos—web and in-person—that make Hireology’s value impossible to ignore.

Negotiate deal terms and pricing to close fast and close well.

What We’re Looking For

4 years of full-cycle B2B sales experience, owning every stage of a deal.

Hospitality SaaS experience is a strong advantage.

Salesforce proficiency preferred.

A data-driven mindset—you track your metrics because they tell you where to push harder.

Strong communication skills: you read the room, handle objections with confidence, and guide deals forward—not pressure them.

A self-starter mentality: you build genuine pipeline, not wishful thinking.

Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent track record of results.

Compensation & Benefits

Base salary: $100,000 | OTE: $166,000 with uncapped commission

Health, Dental, and Vision coverage from day one

401(k) with company match

Unlimited PTO and mental health days

External learning budget

Real career advancement—we promote from within
