About The Role

We’re hiring a Senior Account Executive to help scale a nationally expanding franchise brand. This is a full-cycle sales position ideal for someone who thrives on ownership, strategic selling, and driving measurable impact. If you're an experienced closer ready to move beyond pure quota-chasing and play a pivotal role in a high-growth environment, this is your next move.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Manage the full sales cycle—from lead qualification to deal close
  • Respond to and qualify inbound leads, while also building outbound motion
  • Lead engaging discovery calls and deliver compelling, value-based pitches
  • Guide franchise candidates, operators, and business owners through the decision-making process
  • Keep your pipeline clean, organized, and updated in HubSpot (or similar CRM)
  • Collaborate with leadership on optimizing messaging, positioning, and sales strategy
  • Surface insights on customer objections, buying behavior, and market dynamics
  • Support team growth by mentoring junior reps and sharing best practices

What We’re Looking For

  • 2–3+ years of experience managing full-cycle sales, ideally in B2C, healthcare, or franchising
  • Demonstrated success closing mid- to high-ticket deals with business owners or decision-makers
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills with a professional and approachable tone
  • Strong organizational habits and CRM fluency (HubSpot or Salesforce preferred)
  • Experience working with service-based or operations-focused businesses is a big plus
  • Self-starter mindset with comfort working remotely and aligning to Eastern Time hours

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • Be part of a high-growth brand making national impact
  • High-ownership role with exposure to leadership and strategy
  • Collaborative, supportive team environment with solid onboarding
  • Opportunity to empower entrepreneurs and drive real-world outcomes
