Responsibilities

As one of the fastest growing areas of Automattic, VIP presents a unique opportunity for experienced Account Executives to help take us to the next level.

We're looking for AEs who are passionate about what WordPress can do for our existing customers.

Your style is to listen and learn from prospects, positioning VIP as the best Content Management System for the Global 2000.

You don’t sit and wait for leads to come to you.

Instead, you research the market, identify opportunities within specific verticals, and design a sales strategy that is both high-touch and creative, thereby helping to create the best possible positioning to develop new business for WordPress and VIP.

You’ll be closely working with SDRs as well as have full leverage of our Marketing teams to create compelling outreach and content, but you’ll be generating your own leads alongside that.
