Who we are, what we do & why we do it?

Dext is the market leader in accounting & bookkeeper automation software, trusted by over 500,000 SMBs worldwide. Our suite of tools makes accountants more productive, profitable and powerful. In doing so we give them back the most precious commodity, time, which they can then use to add greater value to their clients. Our rapid expansion means we are now seeking Account Executives to participate in our growth by finding leads and closing sales deals.

Dext operates across Europe, North America and APAC, with an expanding SaaS product portfolio. It's a fabulous opportunity to make your mark and join our team in Canada to be part of one of the world's leading FinTech solution providers.

The role - what you'll do as an Account Executive:

• Hunt cold new business opportunities (50%) and convert the great warm leads passed through our Marketing and Sales Operations teams (50%), using consultative telephone techniques, great demos and webinars;
• Nurture the sales funnel and increase conversion;
• Create a great first impression by providing prospects with a world-class consultation experience;
• Develop strong relationships with decision-makers and key stakeholders, working alongside colleagues to ensure a seamless buying and deployment process;
• Develop a successful buyer journey, supporting and creating a positive experience for your customers, mitigating contraction churn and cancellation.

About you - what we are looking for:

• Brilliant communicator across all media;
• Eager to learn and very coachable (looks for feedback and can't wait to put it into practice);
• Demonstrable previous success in a B2B sales role, predominantly liaising with customers over the phone;
• Proven ability to consistently exceed sales targets;
• A driven hunter who owns their own success;
• Can build and manage relationships with key stakeholders and strategic partners at all levels;
• A consultative, process driven and persistent approach with exceptional written and verbal communication skills;
• Knowledge of the accounting and bookkeeping industry (preferred).

These are our ideal requirements, but we hire on potential, not just on experience, and we know that some people are less likely to apply for a role if they don't meet 100% of the criteria. At Dext we are committed to cultivating a diverse, inclusive and empowering culture, so please apply if you meet the majority of these competencies.
