Job description

Join SpeakUp as our U.S. Account Executive and be the voice of change!

For over 20 years, SpeakUp has helped organizations build the conditions for ethical behavior. Founded in Amsterdam as People Intouch, we started with a simple but powerful idea: to give people a voice. Today, more than 600 companies—including Electrolux, Daimler, IKEA, BMW, and Mann+Hummel—and over 5 million individuals trust SpeakUp, our AI-powered ethics and compliance platform.

We put compliance teams at the center, offering technology that transforms compliance from a checkbox into a proactive advantage. Our platform reduces risk, streamlines manual workflows, and empowers employees to act early and speak up with confidence.

Now, we’re bringing that mission to the U.S, and we’re looking for an Account Executive to help us make it happen!

What You’ll Do

• Lead U.S. expansion by identifying new business opportunities and building long-term client partnerships.
• Engage in consultative sales, listening to prospect needs and challenges, and aligning them with tailored SpeakUp solutions.
• Navigate and connect with topics like whistleblowing, ethics, anti-corruption, privacy, and socio-political developments, becoming a trusted advisor—not just a vendor.
• Drive the sales process from prospecting through closing, collaborating closely with internal teams on delivery and success.
• Leverage your existing network and market insight to jumpstart regional momentum.
• Deliver feedback from the field to enhance our strategy, product offerings, and go-to-market efforts.

Who You Are

• A self-starter with 3–6+ years of B2B sales experience, preferably in SaaS, compliance, legal tech, or ethics-related fields.
• Passionate about social impact and creating safer, more transparent workplaces.
• Deeply curious, articulate, and capable of making complex regulatory topics relatable and actionable.
• Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced, scale-up environment, while staying aligned with an international team.
• Experienced in the U.S. market, with a valuable network across legal, HR, ESG, or compliance sectors.

Why Join SpeakUp

Now, we’re doubling down on our mission: to reduce risk and manual work for compliance teams while helping organizations foster strong cultures of integrity. Our vision is a future where integrity shapes every workplace, and compliance professionals are seen not just as rule-keepers, but as leaders of positive change—supported by smart, intuitive tools that make their jobs easier.

Are you ready to shape the future of workplace integrity in the U.S.?
