Account Executive

Location: Nationwide Remote

Company

At CodeScience, Inc., we help companies build & deploy Solutions on the Salesforce Platform. Established in 2008, we were a founding member of the Salesforce Product Development Organization (PDO) program, and are the only company to achieve the Master Navigator PDO designation. We’re pretty proud of the hard work it took us to get here! Our client’s success is rooted in CodeScience’s ability to support them through every stage of their lifecycle from ideation to deployment. We also believe in having fun while doing it.

Position

CodeScience is seeking a Business Development/Account Executive. As a leading provider of Salesforce solutions, we are looking for someone prepared to collaborate with potential customers on the design and delivery of their complex Salesforce application development projects. We’re looking for the real deal.

Ideally, you already have experience selling professional services, or have a background as a sales engineer, software consultant, or product manager with experience in selling Professional Services. Did we mention that we are Masters of Professional Services?

In this position, you will be responsible for both business development activities and managing the sales process. Our success depends on you thinking creatively, building a reputation with our partners, owning client relationships, and closing opportunities. This is a role for someone who is both curious and passionate.

CodeScience is looking for someone who will bring the confidence and enthusiasm we have for our organization to the market. You will need to be able to tease information from people and be willing to determine a solution from several possible alternatives faster than a cheetah with a jetpack!
