JOB DESCRIPTION

• The Account Executive will be responsible for driving new business acquisition in a sales organization currently transitioning from a relationship-driven (“farming”) model to a more proactive, hunter-led approach, while expanding existing client relationships in the fleet leasing sector. This role combines consultative sales, relationship management, and client education in a highly collaborative, relationship-driven environment.
• This is a hunter-first role, with a strong emphasis on self-generating pipeline and closing new business, with the expectation of building and growing a long-term, self-sustaining book of business (farmer). Account Executives prospect and secure new accounts, create tailored leasing and fleet management solutions, and serve as long-term consultants to their portfolio of clients.
• The company fosters a hands-on, entrepreneurial culture where team members are expected to contribute meaningfully, operate autonomously, and collaborate cross-functionally to deliver exceptional client outcomes.
• The company is at a key growth inflection point, actively expanding its sales force to support a 5-year plan to double revenue, making this an ideal opportunity for a sales professional who wants to build, not just maintain.

SUCCESS IN THE FIRST 6–12 MONTHS

• Close 50–75 units within the first year
• Build a consistent, self-generated pipeline
• Establish a strong presence in the Seattle market
• Develop a self-sustaining book of business 

 ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS

• Grow Client Base: Prospect fleets of 10–200 vehicles via cold calling, networking, and lead follow-up.
• Consult & Close: Present customized proposals, pricing, and terms while educating clients on leasing and lifecycle management.

• Pipeline Management: Track activities and opportunities using CRM software, ensuring accurate forecasting and reporting.
• Collaboration: Work closely with sales support to ensure accuracy and efficiency throughout the sales process.
• Sales Cycle Execution: Guide prospects from needs assessment through vehicle location, negotiation, uplift, and delivery.

• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record
• Proven B2B sales experience with long-cycle, consultative, value-based selling
• Demonstrated track record of self-generating leads and closing business
• Strong ability to build and maintain long-term client relationships
• Excellent communication, organizational, and time-management skills
• Proficiency with CRM systems (HubSpot)
• Self-motivated, results-driven, and coachable with a strong work ethic
