Account Executive

Pocus Sales Role

Pocus exists to supercharge GTM teams. We make every rep a 10x seller. With Pocus, organizations can have fewer, better reps to drive increased pipeline and revenue.

How? We've created the world's most powerful, AI-native prospecting platform.

Pocus influences nearly half a billion in pipeline per quarter for our customers. We're trusted by high growth companies like Asana, Monday, Canva, and Miro where Pocus powers up to 50% of their pipeline and eliminates 10+ hrs of work per rep per week.

Pocus has hundreds of always-on AI agents doing the manual, tedious work of researching & prospecting so that reps can do what they do best : sell. With Pocus AI agents working for them, rep's days are simplified. Reps get alerts when compelling events happen, account plans are generated by AI, and agents recommend who to reach out to with the next best action. We're fortunate to be backed by First Round, Coatue, and execs like CEO Zoom, CPO Adobe, CRO OpenAI, who are helping us usher in this future of sales.

The Pocus team is full of humble overachievers that like to move quickly (we call it shiperate ), own our work, give customers superpowers, and create magic for our team all while having a ton of fun. Join us on this next phase of growth!

Who You Are

As a small and early stage start-up, alignment on culture and values is our #1 priority. People that are successful at Pocus, regardless of role, strongly identify with the following :

You are a humble over-achiever. You're constantly asking for and excited about feedback that helps you learn and grow.

You don't take yourself too seriously. You like to work hard but not without plenty of smiles and laughs along the way.

You are delusionally optimistic. Big challenges and projects excite and motivate you.

You have exceptional integrity and always do the right thing, even if and especially when no one else is watching.

You are a problem solver, not a problem identifier. Your first reaction when encountering something that isn't working is to think "What can I do to make this better?"

You strive to perfectly balance individual initiative with humility and collaboration, understanding when it is better to ask for help and when it is better to solve a problem independently.

You move with a self-imposed sense of urgency. You strive to constantly find the perfect balance between speed and quality and you understand when to make that tradeoff.

You have a high bar for quality and you honor your commitments.

You are excited about building foundations and you love learning new things as part of that. You have a bias towards documentation and writing things down.

You are excited about working in a high-growth, fast paced environment where you can have meaningful ownership and impact on the business, and understand the exceptionally hard work that will be required

As an ideal candidate, you have :

4+ years of experience in a new business quota carrying role

Proven capability to own and exceed $1M+ in quota while closing deals north of six-figures

Enterprise selling experience - specifically selling through internal champions, aligning to executive level initiatives, and multi-threading across functions and levels to drive alignment and overcome blockers

Expertise and excitement for outbound prospecting - you love the process of thoughtfully breaking into accounts - be it through email, events, cold calls, or other creative channels - and don't expect to rely 100% on inbound

Exceptional written and verbal communication and attention to detail in all forms (docs, emails, Slack messages, Powerpoint presentations) and at all levels (from AE to CRO)

Excitement to build the foundations of sales at an early stage and rapidly growing startup

Nice to have :

You've built sales playbooks or processes

Passion for Pocus and the category of AI x Sales
