Description

As an Enterprise Account Executive, you'll own new logo growth within Checkr's Enterprise segment (>5K employees). This is a full-cycle, high-complexity sales role — you'll build pipeline, run sophisticated sales cycles, quantify prospect pain in financial terms, and stay accountable for the deal through post-sale activation. We're looking for someone who is AI-native, resourceful, and treats ramp and adoption as part of the sale, not someone else's problem.

What you'll do

  • Own new business sales across an assigned book (200–300 accounts), with a meaningful share of pipeline self-sourced through your own outbound motion, in partnership with your BDR
  • Run full-cycle Enterprise deals — multi-thread across the buying committee, quarterback internal resources (Product, SE, CS, Support, Executives), and orchestrate the deal from first outbound to close
  • Get prospects to quantify their own pain — build simple, back-of-napkin ROI models in real time and anchor the close on financial outcomes, not features
  • Negotiate and close annual contracts ranging $50K–$1M
  • Own post-sale activation planning — document ramp milestones and consumption targets before the deal closes, and set the CS team up to execute against them
  • Use AI tools operationally to run your business — account research, pipeline management, and prospecting, not just experimentation
  • Develop internal champions and sell the deal internally when you need resources or approvals
  • Travel to meet prospects and customers at events, meals, or their facilities

What you bring

  • Proven track record closing new Enterprise accounts with complex organizational structures, including multi-year quota attainment you can speak to specifically
  • A real, self-sourced outbound motion — not entirely dependent on inbound or BDR-sourced pipeline
  • Experience selling to EVPs/CXOs and end-users within the same cycle, and communicating in an executive register
  • Demonstrated ability to quantify business value and build ROI cases with prospects
  • Experience owning post-sale handoff and ramp/activation planning, ideally in a consumptive or volume-based pricing model
  • Resourcefulness — you find the answer rather than waiting for SE/CS/BDR bandwidth that isn't guaranteed
  • Operational, hands-on use of AI tools to scale your own output
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex topics
  • Experience selling B2B solutions, preferably to HR buyers
  • An A-player mindset with a strong bias for action: you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes
