Verkada is building a world-class sales organisation and we are looking for an Account Executive to join our team in Japan. We prioritise drive and demonstrated success in whatever sales role you’ve been in before — we care far less about fancy pedigrees, schools, or a resume with “brand name” companies. If you are a top performer, we’d love to speak with you, regardless if you have any tech sales experience. We have an excellent training program and a strong track record of helping people transition into the tech industry.

• Build an intimate understanding of Verkada products and their place in the industry
• Maintain accurate pipeline management 
• Work with channel partners to source and close deal

You have:

• Full sales cycle experience in a quota-carrying capacity 
• Highly effective communication skills, with the ability to build rapport, nurture relationships, and hold strong presentation skills
• Hunger and drive to create your own business
• A proven ability to exceed targets, and can articulate how you have ensured your own success

You are:

• Fluent to at least business level in Japanese and English
• A self-starter: You have discipline and drive 
• Organised: You think and act logically to progress deals in volume
