Hi, welcome to the opening paragraphs which are defined in Settings -> Job Site. We'll show this in a moment.
We’re extraordinarily proud of the company we’ve built so far (not to mention humbled to be recognized as the #1 place to work in San Francisco, as well as a top workplace in the entire United States.). Our people are Lever’s biggest competitive advantage: we’ll continue investing in our “Leveroos” by bringing our people-first culture to Toronto.
THE CHALLENGE
Customer Account Executives at Lever are confident partnering with current customers in dynamic, quick-moving, and rapidly changing environments. In this strategic role you will get an opportunity to work with our largest and most innovative customers to help them drive their business transformations. You'll partner closely with our Customer Success team to understand a customer's needs and pain points. You'll build long-lasting, meaningful relationships with Lever customers and act as a strategic consultant to help them reinvent their relationship with Lever as they continue to grow and scale. You're a great listener, partner, commercial strategist, and customers love you—we'd love to see you bring those talents to Lever!
This is an opportunity to also help conceptualize and refine our go-to-market strategy in the enterprise. There’s no script, no one-size-fits-all solution. We’re consultative sales experts, and we train, develop and invest in our smart, goal-oriented team to grow their skills and careers here at Lever.
THE TEAM
Our Customer Account Executive team is a blend of Lever-vets and newer Leveroos who are consistent high performers with a track record of quota over-achievement quarter over quarter. Our team is made up of seasoned Account Execs and Managers from enterprise SaaS companies and smaller startups alike (and even a former NFL pro for good measure). Together, we have a diverse mix of tribal knowledge and fresh, outside perspectives and are looking for someone to bring their own unique skill set and background to round out the team. The Customer Account Executive team is highly collaborative and genuinely love supporting each other in hitting their goals. The team is small but mighty and this is a great time to join and help us build.Â
