Company mission
We want to enable a team of 10 to do what a team of 1,000 can do today. Motion is building the first end-to-end agentic work suite for everyday businesses.
Role
Who you are
- You are ambitious and always looking for ways to improve. For most employees, this role will give you the most responsibilities you’ve ever had, while holding you to higher standards than other companies you’ve worked at. Don’t rest on your past achievements — expect to work your hardest and do the best work of your career at Motion. You will receive lots of coaching and feedback that you should seek to grow from
- You can take ownership of projects and lead them to completion while dealing with ambiguity and finding the right balance between speed and quality. You don’t need every detail and edge case spelled out for you because you can figure out the goals of the project and fill in the blanks
- You are a fast learner and can quickly familiarize yourself with new tools and processes. You aren’t afraid to tackle any part of the stack or learn a new unfamiliar technology. You are comfortable with the fact that working in a startup means if you don’t do the work then it just won’t get done
- You have a strong understanding of how you can create the most impact, and don’t get lost in the weeds in details that don’t matter. You’re excited to work on whatever solves the biggest customer problems, not just whatever is most comfortable for you
- You can collaborate effectively with other talented employees and work well in an environment where the best ideas win. You should expect your ideas to get challenged and to learn a lot from your coworkers
- An Account Executive who thrives in a fast-paced, highly autonomous environment alongside a team of high-performers
What the job involves
- As one of our early sales hires, you’ll play a critical role in shaping how we sell, to whom we sell, and the strategies we use to scale. We’ve built an incredible product that our customers love, and now it’s time to bring it to more teams
- The goal for someone who crushes it in this role: within 3 months, you’ll own a full sales pipeline and close deals independently.
- Within a year, you’ll be helping to define our sales playbook and mentoring new team members as we scale. If you’re scrappy, love solving problems, and are ready to build something big, this is the role for you
- We work hard to ensure Motion’s team is one of the highest talent-density teams in the world. We have accomplished in weeks or months what it would take larger teams years to do
Our take
Today's fast-paced digital world can make time management feel overwhelming, leading many smartphones to be filled with applications for to-do lists, calendars, and project management tools. The fragmented nature of these apps makes them time-consuming and frustrating to navigate, ultimately making them unsuitable for usage within professional workforces.
Motion provides an all-in-one AI-driven time management platform for businesses, facilitating the automation of daily task planning, task prioritization, and long-term scheduling. The AI technology also automates frustrating maintenance tasks normally associated with productivity apps such as the rescheduling of unfinished work, adding exceptions for weekends or time off, and recognizing when a user is falling behind on their schedule.
Whilst businesses have a plethora of productivity platforms at their disposal, Motion has been smart to apply AI to its software to reduce the amount of time users must spend manually using it. Through this approach, the company aims to bring the benefits of time-management platforms without their pitfalls, ultimately helping to keep workers on track and minimize missed deadlines, without requiring constant manual planning time.
