[Hiring] Account Executive @Ubisense

Role Description

The Account Executive grows Ubisense's business across the Americas. Around 70% of the role is hunting: opening new accounts in automotive, industrial manufacturing, pharma and transit. The other 30% is growing a set of existing customers, so that new and installed accounts both expand across sites and use cases.

Key Responsibilities

• New-logo pipeline (around 70%)
  • Build a qualified pipeline across automotive, industrial, pharma and transit through outbound prospecting, events, partners and your own network.
  • Build target account plans for priority organizations, mapping sites, budget holders and buying routes.
  • Open conversations at senior level with operations, manufacturing, engineering, quality and IT leadership.
  • Lead complex sales cycles from first meeting to signed contract, including pilots and proofs of concept.
  • Build business cases that tie SmartSpace to quality, safety, cost, compliance and throughput outcomes.
  • Set up every first deployment so it can expand across lines, sites and regions.
• Existing account growth (around 30%)
  • Own the commercial relationship for a small portfolio of named existing accounts.
  • Protect recurring revenue, including support, licences and services renewals.
  • Identify and develop expansion opportunities: new lines, new sites and new use cases.
  • Multi-thread every key account so that no relationship depends on one contact.
• Partners and team
  • Work with Ubisense's channel and technology partners in the Americas where they add reach, local presence or delivery capacity.
  • Work with business development on outbound campaigns and lead follow-up.
  • Work with presales to scope solutions that meet technical, IT and compliance requirements.
  • Feed market and customer insight back to product and marketing.
  • Keep the CRM and forecast current and accurate.

Qualifications

• A proven track record of winning new enterprise accounts through complex B2B solution sales.
• Experience selling into at least one of automotive, industrial manufacturing, pharma or transit in North America.
• Able to manage long sales cycles with many stakeholders, including technical, operational and procurement buyers.
• Comfortable discussing technical solutions such as software platforms, industrial IoT or automation, and translating them into business outcomes.
• Self-directed, with the discipline to build a territory and pipeline from the ground up.
• Strong account planning, forecasting and CRM discipline.
• Authorized to work in the United States (or Canada, if based there).
• Willing to travel regularly across the Americas.

Requirements

• Knowledge of aerospace and defense, including primes, MRO operations or federal buying routes.
• Experience with RTLS, asset tracking, MES, industrial IoT, manufacturing software or factory automation.
• An existing network in North American automotive OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, pharma manufacturers or transit agencies.
• Experience working with channel partners or system integrators.
• Spanish or Portuguese, for customers and partners in Latin America.
• Familiarity with a structured sales methodology such as MEDDPICC.
• Experience working with a headquarters in another time zone.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary plus commission weighted toward new-logo wins, with a component for existing account growth.
• Customers who are global leaders in their sectors, and technology that runs inside their operations.
• A small, experienced team where your impact is visible.
• Remote working, with the flexibility a regional role needs.
