# Account ExecutiveThinkificOn-siteCanadaSalesPosted Oct 25, 2026Who we are Thinkific (TSX: THNC) is an award-winning learning commerce platform built for scale. By bringing together community, courses, and content with commerce, we power transformative learning experiences and give businesses everything they need to grow their revenue — all from one AI-powered platform. So far, our customers have generated over $3.7 billion in revenue and reached more than 200 million learners worldwide. • The culture we're building We've been intentional about the culture we're building and are proud to be recognized as an award-winning culture—we’re a Certified Great • Place to Work, one of Canada's Best Diversity • Employers, BC Top Employers, and Canada's Top Small & Medium Employers for 2026 by Canada's Top 100! Here’s what it means to work at Thinkific: We're a high-performing team on a meaningful mission, and the way we work reflects that. Thinkers are customer-obsessed and ownership-driven — we talk to customers constantly, take full accountability for outcomes, and operate with a high degree of autonomy and trust. We care deeply for each other and believe the best ideas come from honest debate, real feedback, and diverse perspectives. It's a culture built on trust, exceptional work, and genuine respect for the people around us. Who thrives here: Thinkific may be the right place if you're energized by a fast-paced environment, enjoy high autonomy, and work well with ambiguity and change. You thrive in highly collaborative teams and make the people around you better. You're results-driven, take ownership without being asked, have hard conversations even when it's uncomfortable, and celebrate diverse perspectives. AI is a tool you embrace to move faster and think bigger. Who doesn't thrive here: If you prefer highly structured environments, need to wait for clear direction to move, dislike ambiguity and change, or find direct feedback uncomfortable, Thinkific may not be the right fit. About the Role Are you someone who is naturally curious, embraces a growth mindset, and is eager for an exciting opportunity that will push you out of your comfort zone? We're looking for an Account Executive to join us at Thinkific. In this role, you'll own the full sales process — from lead to close — focused on acquiring mid-market and enterprise customers and maximizing revenue.
