The opportunity
At Klaviyo, we value the unique backgrounds, experiences and perspectives each Klaviyo (we call ourselves Klaviyos) brings to our workplace each and every day. We believe everyone deserves a fair shot at success and appreciate the experiences each person brings beyond the traditional job requirements.
What you'll do
Strategic Territory Ownership: Develop and execute a "land and expand" strategy for Velocity accounts and high-potential non-retail organizations. You will be the primary driver of new business within this strategic whitespace.
Collaborative Selling: Partner with Large Enterprise (LENT) AEs on complex, high-value opportunities. You will have the ability to request LENT support for larger deals in exchange for an agreed-upon split, providing you with a front-row seat to enterprise deal mechanics.
Enterprise Pipeline Acceleration: Take ownership of pre-qualified, high-potential opportunities that come with enterprise deal context already established — including stakeholder mapping, business objectives, and organizational dynamics. You inherit a running start and a built-in collaborative rep on the other side of every co-sell, turning each deal into both a revenue opportunity and a demonstration of enterprise sales excellence.
Vertical-Specific Prospecting: Conduct personalized, multi-threaded outreach into non-retail verticals, tailoring our value proposition to specific industry pain points and digital transformation goals.
ROI-Driven Discovery: Lead deep-dive discovery sessions to move beyond features. You will build ROI-backed business cases and bespoke demos that speak directly to the KPIs of C-suite stakeholders.
Pipeline Rigor & Forecasting: Maintain impeccable Salesforce hygiene. You are expected to manage a diverse pipeline with clear stages, "why/why not" documentation, and accurate forecasting that provides clear visibility to Sales Ops.
What they're looking for
- Proven Track Record: 3-6 years of experience as a closing Account Executive in a SaaS or high-growth tech environment, with a strong performance record at the Large Enterprise level.
- Communication Mastery: Exceptional ability to present to large groups, with the "tonal intelligence" to pivot between technical users and executive buyers.
- Consultative Hunter: Strong discovery skills with the ability to translate complex business objectives into tangible, ROI-justified use cases.
- Enterprise Expertise: A proactive approach to multi-threading and a demonstrated track record navigating complex buying committees (IT, Finance, Marketing, and Procurement).
- Tools & Hygiene: Proficiency in Salesforce, Outreach, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and Gong. We value data-driven sellers who treat their CRM as a strategic asset.
- Analytical Mindset: Comfortable interpreting funnel signals and applying core business metrics (ROI, TCO, etc.) to build a compelling case for the platform.
- Growth Mindset: An active desire to learn, an openness to coaching, and a collaborative spirit.
