[Hiring] Account Executive @Samsara

Role Description

Samsara is seeking a high-impact, strategic seller to lead the go-to-market execution for our newest frontiers in Connected Equipment. As an Enterprise Specialist (Overlay), you will partner with our Account Executives (AEs) to build deep partnerships with our largest, most complex accounts. You aren't just selling a tool; you are pioneering GTM, ensuring our customers realize continuous value from new products as a part of the overall platform.

This specialist reports into the VP of Sales, EMEA and will be aligned by segment and product. AEs on the team are charged with accelerating the growth of one or more new product(s) and will be incentivized on quarterly product sales targets mapped to mainline sellers in the segment. Product Specialist sellers drive growth through strategic, high-value deal executing and enabling the segment overall to be successful.

This is a remote position open to candidates residing in the United Kingdom.

You should apply if:

• You want to impact the industries that run our world: Your efforts will result in real-world impact – helping to keep the lights on, get food into grocery stores, and most importantly, ensure workers return home safely.
• You have an innate curiosity about how businesses work: One day you’re meeting with a VP of Operations in waste management; the next, you’re diving into the logistics of a global food distributor. You seek to understand the "unit of value" for every customer.
• You build genuine, high-stakes relationships: Our customers operate in "boots-on-the-ground" industries. They value earned trust and partners who understand their operational realities.
• You want to be with the best: Samsara’s high-performance culture means you’ll be surrounded by the best and challenged to go farther than you have before.
• You are a team player: In an overlay role, your success is tied to the success of the broader account team. You lead through influence, not just authority.

In this role, you will:

• Architect deals that align Samsara’s new products value with customer use cases to provide maximum value and return on investment.
• Co-generate new product pipeline with ADRs/AEs across high propensity to buy accounts.
• Drive strategy and pilot/trial success.
• Provide commercial insights and pricing benchmarks often for unique set of competitors in the market.
• Partner with GTM and Product to feed back insights and help shape roadmap.
• Build frameworks, assets and insights that scale across the sales org.
• Travel 20%+ to meet customers where they physically operate and to advance solutions and deals.
• Champion, role model, and embed Samsara’s cultural principles (Focus on Customer Success, Build for the Long Term, Adopt a Growth Mindset, Be Inclusive, Win as a Team) as we scale globally and across new offices.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in complex, full-cycle Enterprise sales.
• Proven Track Record: Consistent quota over-achievement in complex accounts with £500k+/€500k+ ARR transactions.
• Deal Complexity: Demonstrated success navigating 6- and 7-figure deals involving multiple stakeholders (Legal, Procurement, InfoSec, and C-Suite).
• Entrepreneurial Agility: Experience selling new products where the playbook is still being written.

Requirements

• Experience working in a specialist/overlay co-selling with a mainline AE team.
• Second language experience in French or German at business-level proficiency.

Benefits

• Above-market total compensation through a combination of base salary, performance-based bonus/variable pay, and equity (for eligible roles).
• Flexible, employee-led remote model.
• Professional development stipend.
• Comprehensive health and parental leave plans.
