Job description

Are you a hungry, high-achiever with a track record of hitting targets in a high-volume sales environment? Are you looking for a clear path to become a closer in the thriving SaaS industry? Cledara is looking for a driven, money-motivated Account Executive to join our team. If you're ready to put in the hard work and are motivated by results, this is your opportunity to build a career with limitless earning potential.

The Company

Cledara helps businesses take control of their software subscriptions by providing visibility of software spend, cutting excess costs, and streamlining administrative tasks. Our platform allows companies to focus on what matters most: growing their business.

With over 1,000 customers globally, we are recognized as a leader in the SaaS management space. We are proud to be a G2 Leader in the Winter 2025 Report, earning 16 badges for SaaS Spend and SaaS Operations Management. Our high ratings for usability and customer relationships underscore our commitment to a powerful yet user-friendly product.

We are a product-led company with a clear vision, on the path to profitability, and backed by leading investors, including CommerzVentures, Nauta Capital, Notion Capital, Techstars, and Anthemis. We have a high-performing product with a proven track record and a collaborative team with a high-performance culture and low tolerance for excuses. We believe in working hard and failing fast so we can learn quickly and get better.

The Role

As an SMB Account Executive, you will own the full sales cycle from prospecting to close. This is a unique opportunity for individuals with a proven ability to hit targets under pressure to move directly into a closing position. We are open to candidates from high-volume sales roles, including recruitment and other industries, who have a relentless work ethic and a desire to succeed.

In this role, you will:

• Manage the full sales cycle, from initial discovery to closing new deals.
• Be accountable for revenue growth and new client acquisition.
• Conduct discovery calls, deliver product demos, and lead negotiations.
• Meticulously manage your pipeline and log all activity in Salesforce.
• Collaborate closely with SDRs, Customer Success, and Marketing to ensure a seamless customer journey.

This is a London-based role requiring 4 days per week in the office.

The Profile We're Looking For

We are looking for someone who:

• Has 2+ years of sales experience, ideally in a high-volume B2B environment.
• Has a proven track record of consistently achieving 80-120% of their targets.
• Is a high-energy, confident, and coachable individual with low ego and high accountability.
• Is open to learning quickly, willing to fail fast, and work hard.
• Possesses strong skills in discovery, negotiation, closing, and pipeline management.
• Is proficient with CRM tools like Salesforce and other outreach/reporting tools.
• Has an interest in technology and an understanding of SaaS, fintech, or procurement (preferred but not essential).

• Training & Development: Cledara provides £500 annually for approved training and expert financial advice through our top-tier pension provider.
  Life & Wellness
