Enterprise Account Executive — New Logo

The opportunity Genesys is redefining what enterprise customer experience looks like, and we're looking for a hunter who wants to be on the front line of that mission. This is a greenfield new business role: you'll own your territory, build pipeline from scratch, and close net-new logos in accounts where Genesys has no footprint today. If you get more energy from opening a blank map than from farming existing relationships, this role was built for you.

What you'll do • Prospect and break into net-new enterprise accounts through targeted outreach, executive relationship-building, and creative account-entry strategies — not just inbound leads • Own the full sales cycle from first contact through contract execution, including navigating complex, multi-stakeholder buying processes • Develop and execute territory and account plans that prioritize high-value, high-probability targets and build a healthy pipeline 3–4x your quota • Work closely with BDRs, sales managers, and respond to RFPs, while maintaining a proactive outbound motion as your primary growth lever • Build, enable, and grow a regional partner ecosystem — identifying the right channel partners, co-developing joint pipeline, and holding partners accountable to mutual commitments • Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales Engineering, Professional Services, and Marketing to craft compelling, technically credible solutions for prospective customers • Accurately forecast opportunity pipeline and stage progression in Salesforce, giving leadership clear line-of-sight into your business

What we're looking for • 5-7+ years of enterprise software sales experience with a consistent track record of opening and closing net-new accounts (not just expanding existing ones) • Demonstrable history of meeting or exceeding quota in a hunter or new business capacity — bring the numbers • Experience selling complex, multi-product SaaS solutions (CCaaS, UCaaS, CX platform, or adjacent enterprise software strongly preferred) • Skilled at navigating large enterprise organizations — comfortable engaging at the C-suite while also building champions two or three levels down • Experience developing and managing channel/partner relationships as part of your go-to-market motion • Strong discovery, qualification, and consultative selling skills — you understand the difference between a prospect's stated problem and their actual business need • Proficiency with modern sales tools: Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Outreach/Salesloft, or equivalent • Self-directed, resilient, and comfortable with the ambiguity of greenfield territory — you build structure where none exists

Why this role • Sell a market-leading platform with strong brand recognition and a compelling roadmap — you'll have a real story to tell • Greenfield territory means your upside is yours to define — no inherited accounts, no cap on what you can build • Be part of a sales organization that invests in your development: dedicated SE support, BDR coverage, and strong marketing alignment • Competitive base + uncapped commission with accelerators for over-quota performance

Compensation: This role has a market-competitive salary with an anticipated base compensation range listed below. Actual salaries will vary depending on a candidate’s experience, qualifications, skills, and location. This role might also be eligible for a commission or performance-based bonus opportunities.
