Mid Market Account Executive, Wealthsimple

• Applicants should be self-starters, relationship-oriented, and ready to be hands-on in delivering results
• Drive and Determination: You should have a demonstrated track record of persevering in the face of adversity. This is a role that will involve selling a product that is taking a new approach to a traditional industry, which means you will hear the word “no” a lot
• Proactiveness: We’re a small team - the expectation is that you will take action without being told. You should have a demonstrated history of working independently and driving your own work in the face of ambiguity
• Results-oriented: You should have experience (and be excited about!) building and managing your own pipeline in the face of uncertainty to ensure you hit your metrics
• Deal Closing: You should know how to get to, or influence, the executive decision maker, align the sale to a business goal or need, and manage negotiations
• Communication and Relationship Building: You should be a concise and articulate communicator while also being able to persuade and convince your audience. You must have strong relationship building skills with external customers to present ideas and concepts creatively and succinctly
• Relevant Experience: At least 5 years experience selling, preferably to the Human Resources (HR) Leadership segment
