    Description

    Join us to shape the future!

    Teamtailor is a global Employer Branding and ATS SaaS platform used by over 13,000 companies, 250,000 users, and available in 90 countries worldwide. We are looking for a Senior Account Executive to join our Chicago team

    Working at Teamtailor means joining a dynamic, fast-paced tech company where impact isn't just a buzzword - it's how we operate. Everyone here has real ownership over the outcomes they drive, and real say in how we grow.

    We've built a team full of different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, because that's what makes us better - not despite our differences, but because of them. If you want in on helping companies and people make life-changing decisions together, we want to hear from you.

    Why SaaS AEs love it here:

    You know the drill - you've sold SaaS before, you're really good at it, and you're tired of environments that feel like a grind. Here's what's different at Teamtailor Chicago:

    • A full sales cycle you actually own - You prospect, run the demo, negotiate, and close. Full autonomy, full commission credit.

    • Real hybrid, not fake flexible - In office Tuesday-Thursday at our Chicago flagship HQ, work from home Monday and Friday. You get face time with a genuinely fun team and two days a week to lock in and sell without commute drag.

    • Uncapped earnings, no ceiling games - Competitive base + uncapped commission.

    • A market leader, not a "maybe it'll work out" startup - 13,000+ customers, 200,000+ users, 90 countries. You're selling something companies already trust, which means shorter sales cycles and warmer conversations.

    • A team that celebrates wins loudly - Our guiding stars are to be different, personal, and kind - and that shows up in how we hit quota together, not against each other. Deal closed? Bell rings, team cheers, coffee's on us. ️

    What you'll be doing:

    • Owning the full sales cycle from prospecting to close - sourcing leads via cold outreach, LinkedIn, and social selling, then running meetings, negotiating, and signing new business.

    • Consistently hitting (and beating) monthly sales targets.

    • Teaming up with Marketing, Partnerships, and Customer Success to keep deals moving and customers thrilled.

    • Staying sharp - leveling up on product knowledge, industry trends, and your own sales craft.

    • Bringing your energy and ideas to the team, because we build this culture together.

    What you bring:

    • 5+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience (HR tech/ATS experience is a big plus, but not required).

    • A track record of managing pipelines with real discipline - you forecast accurately and don't let deals go cold.

    • Solid experience with sales tools (Salesforce, SalesLoft, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Cognism, Apollo, Slack, Notion).

    • A genuine drive to hunt for new business and close it - you like the chase as much as the win.

    • The relationship-building instincts to turn a first call into a long-term customer.

    What we offer:

    • Competitive salary + uncapped commission.

    • The chance to sell a category-leading employer branding and recruitment platform.

    • Real career growth in a fast-scaling company, with training and support that actually helps. ️

    • A talented, supportive team that has each other's back.

    • A true hybrid setup at our flagship North America HQ in Chicago Downtown - in office Tue/Wed/Thu. ️

    • A culture built on being different, personal, and kind - with genuinely good vibes, not just a ping-pong table.

    If this opportunity excites you, we look forward to receiving your application!
