The Mission

As an Account Executive – NCA, you own the front door. Your job is simple and relentless: find businesses that are struggling with operational inefficiency, show them what Simpro Group can do to their bottom line, and close them. You won't be handed a book of accounts — you'll build one. Every new logo you land is a direct result of your hustle, your instinct, and your ability to earn trust fast and turn it into a signature. This is a full-cycle, net-new hunting role. No farming. No order-taking. Pure acquisition.

What You’ll Do

Hunt & Acquire

• Own a defined territory and ICP — research, target, and relentlessly pursue net-new logos
• Prospect through every channel available: cold calling, LinkedIn outreach, partner referrals, networking events, and industry conferences
• Build and maintain a robust self-sourced pipeline that is always at least 3x your quota
• Run the full sales cycle from first contact to signed contract — discovery, demo, proposal, negotiation, close

Sell on Value

• Diagnose each prospect's operational challenges and connect Simpro Group's platform to their specific pain — margin pressure, job costing inefficiency, scheduling chaos, cash flow gaps
• Deliver compelling, customized product demonstrations that translate features into business outcomes
• Navigate complex buying committees — comfortable getting to the economic buyer and keeping them engaged
• Handle objections with confidence and curiosity, not defensiveness

Operate with Discipline

• Maintain accurate, up-to-date records — pipeline, activities, forecasts, and deal stages
• Meet weekly activity KPIs: calls, demos booked, proposals sent, and deals advanced
• Provide regular, honest forecasting to leadership — no surprises
• Collaborate with Sales Engineering, Implementation, and Account Management to ensure a smooth hand-off post-close

What You’ll Bring

• 3+ years experience in a closing role
• Success in selling to the trades industries is highly advantageous
• Proven hunter — you've consistently opened new logos, not just expanded existing accounts
• Experience in full cycle selling, prospecting, discovery, demo, negotiation, and close
• Strong command of Salesforce or equivalent CRM
• Compelling communicator — you know how to tell a business story that makes a prospect lean forward
• Relentlessly self-motivated; you don't wait for leads to come to you
• Bachelor’s degree in business, Marketing, or related field is advantageous
• Valid driver's license and reliable vehicle for client visits
