Account Executive

Job description

We are toogeza, a Ukrainian recruiting company focused on hiring talents and building teams for tech startups worldwide. People make a difference in the big game — and we help find the right ones. Currently, we are looking for an experienced Account Executive to join one of Toogeza’s clients operating at the intersection of deep tech, infrastructure, and creative industries. YOU WOULD BE RUNNING SUCH TASKS AS: - Owning the full sales cycle end-to-end — from first contact and discovery to deal closing and handoff to delivery, with a high level of autonomy; - Building and scaling sales processes from scratch, including discovery, qualification, pipeline management, forecasting, and internal alignment; - Running high-quality discovery calls with senior technical and business stakeholders, uncovering real customer pain points and mapping them to business value (not just product features); - Developing and maintaining a strong, relationship-driven sales pipeline through outbound efforts, partnerships, and industry presence; - Representing the company at industry events, conferences, and trade shows to generate new opportunities and long-term relationships; - Leading customer dinners, private meetings, and executive-level conversations to build trust-based, long-term partnerships; - Translating customer and market feedback into clear, actionable insights for product and engineering teams to influence roadmap, prioritization, and positioning; - Working closely with founders, product, and engineering to ensure strong alignment between customer needs and product development; - Taking ownership not only of revenue, but also of how sales is built, scaled, and executed within the company. REQUIRED SKILLS AND EXPERTISE: - Proven experience in B2B sales or business development within deep-tech, infrastructure, or technically complex products; - Strong technical intuition or background, with the ability to confidently communicate with engineers, technical artists, TDs, CTOs, and other technical decision-makers; - Solid understanding of the VFX and/or Gaming industries, including studio workflows, production pipelines, constraints, and buying dynamics (strong plus); - Experience selling complex solutions rather than simple SaaS products; - Ability to operate effectively in an early-stage environment with ambiguity, minimal process, and high ownership; - Strong executive presence and communication skills, including at the C-level; - Relationship-oriented mindset with a focus on long-term value rather than transactional sales; - Willingness and ability to represent the company at events and travel as needed. LEADERSHIP & GROWTH POTENTIAL: - This is the first dedicated sales role in the company, with a clear path toward sales leadership as the organization scales; - Opportunity to hire, mentor, and build a high-performing sales team over time; - Founder-level mindset — treating company success as personal responsibility and taking ownership beyond a defined job description.
