  • Uncapped commission on everything you close.

The role

Our partner is a fast-growing AI startup based in Barcelona that has built an end-to-end enterprise platform to help large organizations design, deploy and manage their own to solve complex business challenges.

We are currently looking for an Account Executive to join their commercial team and drive the growth of the platform across mid-market and enterprise accounts in Spain and Europe.

As an Account Executive, your mission will be to win and grow enterprise customers, owning the full sales cycle from the first discovery call to the signed contract and beyond.

This is a role for a true closer: someone with a solid technical sales background who speaks the same language as CIOs and IT teams, turns business problems into concrete AI use cases and finds a way forward when a deal gets stuck.

You will work hand in hand with the CEO on go-to-market strategy, supported by an SDR team feeding your pipeline from day one, with a real path to lead the sales team as the company scales.

What you'll do

You will be responsible for:

  • Owning the full sales cycle: discovery, demo, proposal, contract and account expansion.

  • Translating business pain points into AI agent use cases for mid-market and enterprise accounts in Spain and Europe.

  • Leading technical demos, workshops and proofs of concept, talking tech fluently with CIOs and IT teams without the need for a sales engineer.

  • Building proposals and SOWs, negotiating and closing deals.

  • Managing complex deals with multiple stakeholders across business, IT, security and procurement.

  • Working the pipeline generated by the SDR team while also generating your own opportunities.

  • Keeping the CRM and forecast accurate and up to date.

  • Contributing to the go-to-market strategy alongside the CEO.
