Account Executive

About the Team & How We Work

As an Account Executive at Miter, you will own a defined geographic territory and be responsible for building it from the ground up. This is a full-cycle, field-oriented sales role where you will act as a consultative partner to contractors, guiding them to a better way of running their business. You will drive new account acquisition across your territory from initial outreach to close, developing deep local market knowledge and becoming a trusted advisor in your regional construction community. You will have a direct impact on our customers' ability to manage their teams, projects, and financials with greater efficiency, ultimately helping them build a better built world.

This role involves approximately 25% travel. Most travel will be within your local territory and focused on customer meetings, events, and site visits. Travel expectations will be set and agreed upon in advance, with the majority being local or regional rather than cross-country.

Responsibilities

• Prospect & Qualify: Strategically manage geographically aligned prospects. Effectively target and qualify their “fit” based on Miter’s value proposition.
• Consultative Selling: Conduct deep discovery to understand a contractor's unique business needs and pain points related to payroll, HR, and field operations. Be an expert on industry trends to establish credibility with C-suite executives looking to stay ahead.
• Demonstrate Value: Effectively position and demonstrate how Miter's all-in-one platform provides contractors with a consolidated way to integrate all key components of running their business.
• Drive Business: Negotiate and close new logo opportunities, consistently meeting and exceeding monthly and quarterly revenue targets.
• Collaborate: Partner with internal teams, including sales development, launch and customer success, to ensure a seamless handoff and successful implementation for new customers.
• Manage Pipeline: Maintain an organized and accurate forecast, including up-to-date pipeline stages and forecast categories.
• Be a Founder: Bring an entrepreneurial mindset to the team, identifying opportunities for improvement and contributing to a dynamic, rapidly growing company.

Requirements

• 2+ years of quota-carrying, full-cycle B2B software sales experience with a track record of top performance.
• Demonstrated experience building and owning a territory: you know what it takes to generate pipeline from scratch and stay disciplined on the same accounts over time.
• A founder mindset: you take ownership, don't make excuses, and treat your territory like a business.
• Resourcefulness: when the normal playbook fails, you find another way rather than waiting for someone to hand you one.
• Natural curiosity about your customers' world: you ask better questions, go deeper, and change your approach based on what you learn.
• Coachability and adaptability: you welcome feedback, navigate change well, and get better every cycle.
• Willingness to be in the field: this role requires local presence, relationship building, and showing up where your customers work.
• Experience in the construction, payroll, or related industries is a plus.

Benefits

• Competitive Compensation: We offer competitive (well above “market”) salary, commission, and equity packages.
• Medical Insurance: Comprehensive medical, dental, FSA, and vision plans to suit you and your family’s needs.
• 401(k) Retirement Plan: Company-matched contributions to help you plan for your future.
• Flexible PTO: Take the time you need to recharge and be your best self.
• Parental Leave: Generous 16-week paid leave for all parents, including adoptive and foster parents.
• Learning & Development: We offer every employee an annual educational allowance to explore external professional development.
• Office Extras: Snacks, coffee, lunch, and commuter benefits for in-office Mitosaurs.
• Community: Company-wide and team-specific off-sites per year.
