Enterprise Account Executive

Enterprise Account Executive - Education (US)

Location: United States (Remote)

Experience: 10+ years of Enterprise SaaS Sales

About the Role

LeadSquared is looking for an experienced Enterprise Account Executive to accelerate our growth in the Education vertical across the United States.

This is a true new business acquisition role-not a territory management position. You'll be responsible for building your territory from the ground up by identifying strategic opportunities, engaging senior decision-makers, creating pipeline, and closing complex enterprise SaaS deals.

We're looking for a consultative sales professional who thrives in an entrepreneurial environment, has a proven track record of winning large enterprise accounts, and enjoys creating opportunities rather than inheriting them.

What You'll Do

• Build and execute a territory plan focused on enterprise customers in the Education sector across the US.
• Generate new business through strategic prospecting, outbound engagement, referrals, partnerships, and executive networking.
• Develop relationships with C-level executives and key stakeholders across target accounts.
• Own the entire enterprise sales cycle-from discovery and solution positioning to negotiation and contract execution.
• Lead complex, multi-stakeholder sales engagements with long sales cycles.
• Collaborate closely with Sales Development, Marketing, Solutions Engineering, Customer Success, and Product teams to drive customer success.
• Accurately forecast pipeline and revenue using CRM best practices.
• Stay informed on industry trends, competitive landscape, and evolving customer challenges within the Education sector.

What We're Looking For

• 10+ years of experience in Enterprise SaaS sales with a consistent track record of exceeding revenue targets.
• Demonstrated success selling into large enterprise organizations within the Education sector (Higher Education, EdTech, or related segments preferred).
• Proven ability to build a territory from scratch and generate your own pipeline.
• Experience managing complex enterprise sales involving multiple stakeholders and executive buyers.
• Strong executive presence with exceptional communication, negotiation, and consultative selling skills.
• Experience navigating procurement, legal, security, and commercial negotiations.
• Strong forecasting discipline and CRM hygiene.
• Self-motivated, entrepreneurial, and comfortable operating in a high-growth environment.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience selling CRM, SalesTech, Marketing Automation, or workflow automation platforms.
• Familiarity with enterprise procurement processes within educational institutions.
• Experience working in a fast-growing B2B SaaS organization.

Why Join LeadSquared?

At LeadSquared, you'll have the opportunity to shape a high-potential territory, work alongside ambitious teams, and help leading educational institutions modernize their customer engagement and enrollment processes.

If you're energized by building markets, opening strategic accounts, and closing transformational enterprise deals, we'd love to hear from you.
