Role Description We're looking for an Account Executive to join our Digital Velocity (DV) Sales team in Singapore. In this role, you will: - Own the fast, high-volume end of the sales funnel — closing inbound and trial-sourced deals under €10k ARR. - Act as the gateway for bigger deals: the moment an opportunity crosses €10k ARR, you warm-hand it to the regional Commercial AE within one business day — with full context, zero re-discovery. - Work on top of an AI-first layer that handles first touch and surfaces the best opportunities — your job is to convert them, fast. - Cover both pods: net-new logos (Newbiz) and expansion from existing customers (Existing Customer). - Have more influence over how the AI-first sales motion actually works than a typical AE seat would give you. Your day-to-day work and responsibilities include: - Closing sub-€10k deals across both pods — new-business (net-new logos) and scaled-customer expansion, sourced from inbound and product trials. - Working the AI-surfaced queue: acting on intent scores, enrichment data, and draft messaging produced by the AI layer; prioritising by firmographic fit and in-trial usage, not gut feel. - Hitting speed-to-first-touch targets — at this ACV band, fast and personalised beats slow and polished. - Escalating cleanly and fast: routing €10k+ ARR opportunities (and any procurement/security triggers) to the right Commercial AE or KAM/Enterprise team, with full handoff context. - Covering your language markets: English required, and a major European language is a strong plus. - Reading your own funnel and adjusting — no waiting to be told. Qualifications - 1+ years of closing experience carrying a number in B2B SaaS — inbound, transactional, or scaled SMB preferred. - A high-velocity operator mindset: you like volume and tempo, and you don't need a six-month sales cycle to feel productive. - An AI-forward approach — you see AI as leverage, not a threat, and you're ready to work on top of (and help improve) an AI-first stack. - A quantitative instinct: you read your own funnel and adjust without being told to. - Customer and product curiosity — MarTech or marketing-data exposure is a strong plus; Supermetrics product knowledge even more so. - English fluency (required); a major European language is a bonus. Benefits - Competitive compensation package, including equity. - Great work equipment, and home office allowance for those working in our fully remote locations. - Health care benefit and leisure time insurance. - Annual personal learning budget. - Sports and wellbeing allowance. - Benefits may vary depending on location.
