Job description

ADP is hiring an Upmarket Account Executive (25-49 Employee Market).

• Are you ready to build a rewarding future? Uncapped commissions, lavish incentive trips, and career advancement are some of the ways.
• Do you want to join a Fortune 250 company with industry-leading sales training and the latest sales technology to help you achieve success?
• Are you looking to join a fast-paced, inclusive environment with a culture of collaboration and belonging?

Read on and decide for yourself.

In this role, you will drive new business growth within a defined geographic territory targeting organizations with 25‑49 employees. You'll build relationships with business owners and decision‑makers while helping them address payroll, HR, benefits, compliance, and workforce management challenges through ADP's industry‑leading Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions.

Daily, you'll prospect for new business, cultivate relationships, leverage established business partnerships, assess client and prospect needs, present tailored recommendations, and guide organizations through the buying process. You'll manage a complete sales cycle while helping growing businesses leverage technology and strategic workforce solutions to achieve their goals.

This opportunity is designed for sales professionals who have already built a foundation in business‑to‑business sales and are ready to take the next step in their careers. ADP provides industry‑leading sales training, coaching, and technology to help you maximize your success and earnings potential.

Integrity, resilience, positivity, and a refuse‑to‑lose attitude are must‑haves in this job. As with any role in sales, you will experience ebbs and flows. However, challenges should ignite your determination and invigorate you to thrive, not weigh you down. In return, you'll be rewarded with uncapped commissions, incentive trips, and opportunities to advance your career in a fun and friendly environment, all while gaining serious credibility as part of an industry‑leading sales team in a stable and highly respected tech company.

What You'll Do: Responsibilities

Grow Our Business While Growing Yours.

You will work independently and collaboratively as part of various teams within your assigned geography to close sales, win new business, and achieve sales goals. You'll manage the entire sales cycle, from prospecting and discovery through proposal, negotiation, and close.

Turn Prospects into Loyal Clients and Raving Fans.

You will implement a sales strategy targeted to decision‑makers and business owners to build a network and capture new business. You will utilize multi‑channel prospecting techniques, including networking, referrals, social selling, and business partnerships to engage decision‑makers and secure qualified opportunities. You are comfortable leveraging modern digital tools and platforms—including AI—to work smarter and more efficiently. You adopt new technologies quickly, use data to inform decisions, and continuously explore ways to enhance productivity and results through innovation.

Deepen Relationships Across the ADP Family.

In addition to selling cloud‑based human resources solutions, you will strategically cultivate additional business within existing accounts.

Collaborate Daily.

You will serve as a trusted advisor, partner, and ADP ambassador to your clients, internal partners, and overall network while demonstrating grace under pressure and the highest ethical standards.
