Enterprise Account Executive, New Business Development

Enterprise Account Executive, New Business Development Affiliate Marketing / MarTech — Acceleration Partners LOCATION This is a remote, work-from-home role, as are all positions at Acceleration Partners, a structure central to our culture and our vision to change the work/life paradigm. Some travel is required for client meetings, internal meetings, conferences, and other events. Applicants can be based in the US, UK, Germany. ABOUT THE ROLE We're looking for a hunter to drive new client acquisition for our Affiliate Marketing & Influencer Services. This is a new business development role built for someone who thrives on opening doors: sourcing opportunities, building relationships with enterprise decision-makers, and running a deal from first contact through close. Our marketing team generates inbound leads and our sales support team provides collateral and financial modeling, but the right candidate won't wait for leads to come to them. This role is built around a team-based selling model. You bring the opportunity in the door, qualify it, and manage the relationship and the process; our strategy and account management teams build the narrative, the strategic recommendation, and lead the pitch delivery. You're the connective tissue between the prospect and our experts, and the role suits driven, relationship-first sellers who want to sell alongside a strong internal team rather than carry the full strategic load alone. TOP 5 JOB RESPONSIBILITIES New Business Development: Proactively source and build your own pipeline through outbound prospecting, industry relationships, and strategic networking, in addition to working inbound leads. You are a hunter first, and pipeline generation is the core measure of this role. Deal Management & Sales Process Ownership: Own large, complex deals ($500K+ annual contract value) from first contact through close, managing the timeline and multiple decision-makers across marketing, ecommerce, finance, and executive leadership. Discovery & Qualification: Ask the right questions to understand each prospect's business, priorities, and buying process well enough to qualify the opportunity and brief our strategy team. Orchestrating the Pitch: Bring in our strategy and account management teams at the right points in the sales cycle to build and deliver the narrative, the strategic recommendation, and the RFP response. Your job is to set the stage, make introductions, prep the room, and coordinate the team so the pitch lands. Pipeline Discipline & Market Awareness: Maintain rigorous CRM hygiene and accurate forecasting, and stay current on the Affiliate & Influencer Marketing space well enough to prospect credibly and know when to loop in strategy.
