Role Description
We are hiring an Account Executive to work on our commercial sales team that will be responsible for bringing exciting new brands and logos on as new customers. You will build your own pipeline, run complex sales cycles with senior leaders in corporate communications, PR, and crisis management. You will carry a defined share of our 2027 revenue goal, and the way you get there will help shape how PeakMetrics sells as we grow.
