Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

As an Account Executive, Enterprise at Stripe, you will drive Stripe’s future growth engine by building new relationships with prospective companies, turning them into happy Stripe users.

What you’ll do

As an Enterprise Account Executive, you’ll own the full sales cycle, from prospecting and closing to managing existing relationships and identifying new opportunities to expand Stripe’s footprint within existing accounts. Specifically, we’re looking for someone who can execute on long-term sales strategies, engage with internal and external stakeholders, align on technical and business requirements with product teams, build value in competitive situations, lead commercial negotiations, and close deals.

Responsibilities

  • Own a named account list and develop account plans for winning business with digital native and enterprise companies
  • Develop outbound strategies to create and nurture opportunities
  • Own the full sales cycle from prospecting to close, to go live
  • Own and lead commercial negotiations to increase and retain customer revenue and Stripe market share

Who you are

You are an adept salesperson, capable of selling value into prospective customers, engaging in business-level and technical conversations at multiple levels of the organization, including the CTO, COO, and CFO. You have experience working with upper middle market and/or enterprise companies.
