Role summary

Plaid is seeking an Enterprise Account Executive to drive new business and build lasting relationships with large companies in North America. This role focuses on identifying and closing major deals across various verticals within Plaid’s Enterprise segment. You will be responsible for the entire sales cycle, from prospecting and qualifying to negotiating and closing six-figure deals. The ideal candidate will have a strong track record in SaaS sales, experience as an Enterprise Account Executive, and a consultative, solution-centric approach. You will collaborate with internal teams and leverage a territory-focused revenue strategy to achieve success.

We believe that the way people interact with their finances will drastically improve in the next few years. We’re dedicated to empowering this transformation by building the tools and experiences that thousands of developers use to create their own products. Plaid powers the tools millions of people rely on to live a healthier financial life. We work with thousands of companies like Venmo, SoFi, several of the Fortune 500, and many of the largest banks to make it easy for people to connect their financial accounts to the apps and services they want to use. Plaid’s network covers 12,000 financial institutions across the US, Canada, UK and Europe. Founded in 2013, the company is headquartered in San Francisco with offices in New York, Washington D.C., London and Amsterdam.

Our Sales team at Plaid combines deep product and industry knowledge and is focused on bringing Plaid to an ever-broadening set of businesses.

You'll be tasked with identifying and closing major deals across verticals across Plaid’s Enterprise segment.
