Job Description

We’re hiring a Strategic Growth Account Executive to drive commercial expansion within our Strategic segment.

This role is about creating net-new value inside accounts that already have a foothold with our technology but not a direct commercial path. You’ll identify expansion angles, open new teams, introduce new products, and close revenue.

Reporting directly to the Strategic Sales Director and working closely with the Senior VP of Ecosystems, this role requires a seller who can influence senior leadership, navigate complex environments, and consistently deliver new revenue within existing accounts.

Key Metrics

• Cross sell (new products)
Gong Engage–provisioned licenses do not count toward target.

Responsibilities

• Drive new business expansion within Strategic accounts using Chili Piper through Gong Engage.

• Build and execute account strategies that uncover new teams, new product opportunities, and paths to a direct commercial relationship.

• Run the entire sales cycle end-to-end, from outbound prospecting to negotiation and contract close.

• Partner with Customer Success during early engagement, then take full ownership as deals move toward direct agreements.

• Build strong relationships with senior leaders and C-suite stakeholders.

• Coordinate tightly with the Strategic SDR, Marketing, and Partnerships to drive pipeline and create multi-threaded engagements.

• Deliver crisp, confident value messaging that clearly differentiates Chili Piper.

• Travel to key accounts as needed (up to 20%).
