Role Description
As an Account Executive on our Venture Capital team, you'll sell the full Juniper Square platform - industry-leading SaaS combined with our fund administration offering - to upper mid-market and institutional venture firms. Venture capital is one of the fastest-growing parts of our business, and the firms we serve buy on trust: decisions are consensus-driven, relationships run through the GPs, and the partnership doesn't end at signature.
We're looking for service-minded sellers who become trusted advisors to the GPs and finance leaders they work with, and who earn deeper access into these platforms over time. You'll build your own pipeline, run disciplined, multi-stakeholder sales cycles, and use AI to compete differently - both in how you work and in how you position Juniper Square to buyers. If you're hungry, low-ego, and genuinely invested in your customers' outcomes, come build this with us.
What youβll do
-
Pipeline Generation
-
Build and maintain your own pipeline of upper mid-market and institutional VC firms using account-based strategies and your network - without relying on inbound.
-
Target GPs, CFOs, COOs, and Heads of Finance and Operations at venture firms.
-
Partner with Sales Development to originate new opportunities and adjust targeting based on territory performance and fund cycle timing.
-
Leverage the broader VC ecosystem - CPA firms, banks, law firms, and fund advisors - for access, context, and acceleration.
-
Represent Juniper Square at in-person and virtual industry events.
-
Sales Process and Deal Execution
-
Lead deep, consultative discovery and build business cases that span both technology and fund administration.
-
Navigate consensus-driven buying across partners, finance, and operations stakeholders, and map required approvals early.
-
Get ahead of objections - security reviews, transition risk, data migration - before they surface.
-
Forecast accurately and consistently meet or exceed revenue targets.
-
Relationships and Customer Partnership
-
Become a trusted advisor to GPs and finance leaders, with relationships that extend well beyond the close.
-
Build and own relationships with the stakeholders who work alongside our clients - CPA firms, banks, law firms, and more.
-
Partner with Fund Solutions and Customer Success to ensure clients realize the value they bought.
-
Solution Positioning and AI Fluency
-
Consult credibly on VC fund workflows: capital calls, distributions, LP reporting, and fund administration operations.
-
Position JunieAI and Juniper Square's broader AI capabilities as a genuine competitive advantage with sophisticated buyers.
-
Incorporate AI into your own workflow - call prep, account research, deal strategy, communication - and model what AI-augmented selling looks like.
-
Executive Presence and Collaboration
-
Lead senior conversations with Managing Partners, CFOs, and COOs with credibility and preparation.
-
Work with Sales Development, Fund Solutions, and Solutions Engineering to build the right team around each deal.
-
Help refine our go-to-market approach and share what you learn to level up the broader AE team.
Qualifications
-
7+ years of B2B full-cycle, quota-carrying sales experience, or 6+ years of fund accounting or operations experience with exposure to Venture Capital.
