Job Description : Senior Account Executive

As a Senior Account Executive, you will be responsible for building the PCS Software client base and procuring new business logos by contacting new prospects through cold calling and on site customer visits and closing multi-year licensing agreements. This requires strong product knowledge, excellent written and verbal communication skills, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as well as consistent follow-through and solid organizational skills in order to provide best-in-class service to our transportation and logistics customers. The Senior Account Executive must have a strong "hunter" mentality and proven record of meeting and exceeding past sales KPI's over the past 5 years.

This position is a hybrid work schedule working 2-3 days from our Houston, Texas, headquarters and remote from your Houston area house if not traveling for work based activities. Up to 25% scheduled regional travel is expected with this position to meet with clients on site and to attend trade shows and customer events. This position has a base salary plus a monthly commission structure for a very healthy total compensation package.

Responsibilities

• Follow-up with current lead opportunities and contact new prospects via outbound calling. This position leaves you in total control since you will receive approximately 40% of your sales qualified opportunities from the marketing and business development team, but will always be responsible for sourcing about 60% of your leads from your own outbound hunting.
• Strategically build a strong pipeline to ensure quota is consistently met. You will have an annual goal, but we pay commissions monthly, so if you are motivated by money, then this is a great plan!
• Coordinate with the Platform Engineers to schedule demonstrations that highlight specific elements of the PCS platform and perform your own product demonstrations as necessary.
• Deliver amazing customer service to potential clients as an ambassador and face of the company, but more important is for you to know the customer's transportation business challenges inside and out because you function as a trusted advisor and business partner to our customers. You need to understand not only the PCS product offering inside and out, but understand the domain specific needs that challenge the transportation and logistics industry and leveraging the value of our platform, services, and training resources to solve mission critical issues.
• Identify decision makers and establish relationships with key players to generate interest and close deals.
• Document daily sales activity and communicate information regarding prospects and opportunities via Salesforce.com.
• You will complete the full sales cycle filled with potential prospects beginning with the initial contact and then with constant follow-up calls, negotiate and close sales agreements, and closely champion your clients from pre-sales phase to the implementation process.
