About the Role

You will be responsible for introducing KEV’s School Cash Suite of solutions to C-level School District Business Officials in your assigned territory of Illinois. You’ll work closely with the marketing, customer success, and product departments to learn about the product and the value we offer to existing/prospective clients.

Our Account Executives take pride in picking up the phone, setting up in- person meetings to understand prospective client needs. They also have the ability to ask key questions and deliver compelling reasons to act. You recognize that “winning” in a world of reluctant and risk-averse customers means leading customer meetings with insight, and challenging customer assumptions to mobilize them around a purchase. You have a proven track record of acquiring a deep understanding of the customer’s business and using that understanding to push the customer’s thinking and teaching them something new about how they can operate more efficiently / effectively.
