Account Executive
Position Overview
As the Account Executive at CorePrint Solutions, you will operate with a high degree of independence to identify opportunities, build your own pipeline, and close business across the U.S. This is a national role based in Houston that combines inside and outside sales, account management, and consultative solution selling. You’ll represent CorePrint’s full portfolio—including multifunction printers (MFPs), large-format plotters, specialty print equipment, consumables, software, and service contracts—while delivering an exceptional client experience. This position requires more than sales ability—it demands a service-first mindset, professional integrity, and a consistently positive attitude. You’ll represent CorePrint’s reputation for reliability, responsiveness, and genuine partnership.
