Sales at Swiftly

The Swiftly Sales team works with transit agencies, municipal operators, and other local government entities to determine how Swiftly can best solve their unique challenges. The team cares deeply about the problem we're solving, so we empathize with and listen to our customers to build partnerships and deepen our value proposition. Our consultative selling approach is structured around constant listening and deep industry knowledge. We are a nimble, close-knit team that thrives on collaboration and creativity to work within constraints. Lastly, while we love to win, we believe that the best wins, at a broad level, come from support our colleagues and matching the right Swiftly solutions with the right customers for the best long-term outcomes.

Sales at Swiftly

Our Account Executive team manages deals from start to finish for prospective customers in the public transit industry.

While we expect Account Executives to own and drive all aspects of a deal, we also believe in working as a team to achieve success. Our Account Executives are backed by a group of BDRs and Solutions Engineers who will partner with you to develop effective account strategies and build compelling business cases throughout the sales process. Additionally, you will have the support of a dedicated cross-functional leadership team who will collaborate with you on important deals and provide valuable coaching to help you succeed.

The AE team at Swiftly cares deeply about the problem we're solving. To ensure that we are making an impact throughout the sales process, we have implemented a value-driven sales methodology. You will receive training on the SPICED methodology, which is used by our GTM teams and serves as a blueprint for achieving sales targets.

About the Role

We are hiring for TWO distinct Account Executive roles:

(1) an Enterprise Account Executive, and

(2) an SMB Account Executive.

Most of the below apply to both. Where there are differences between the two, we call them out.

As an Account Executive, you will be responsible for leading and managing a successful territory plan. This involves thoroughly understanding the needs and challenges of our stakeholders, collaborating with your Solutions Engineer to deliver effective platform demos, presenting compelling business cases that demonstrate measurable ROI, and ultimately convincing decision-makers that Swiftly can help achieve their desired organizational outcomes. In addition, you will guide your clients through procurement processes and manage Swiftly's internal responses to public solicitations for your territory, with the support of our internal procurement team.

We are open to candidates in most locations across the U.S. At this time we are unable to provide Visa sponsorship. #LI-Remote
