Senior Account Executive (Enterprise)

? Coverflex

Work changed. Pay didn’t.

Coverflex exists to make compensation work for everyone.

Pay is still rigid, fragmented, and hard to feel.

We turn compensation into choice — one platform, one card, one app — for benefits, meal allowance, insurance and more.

Our platform is simple for HR and meaningful for employees.

We provide choice, smarter compensation tools and empowerment.

? Reality Check - What Makes This Role Hard

This role sits at the intersection of complex buying, internal politics, risk, and long time horizons.

You’re not “selling a tool”, you’re entering a big organization and getting it to agree to change how compensation and benefits work (which impacts budgets, compliance, employees, and leadership reputation).

Here’s what makes it challenging:

• Enterprise sales cycles are long (and don’t follow a straight line): you’ll need patience, stamina, and strong deal orchestration

• Deals are multi-stakeholder and political: HR, Finance, Legal, Procurement, and leadership may all need to align

• You’ll handle high risk sensitivity: decisions involve budget, employee impact, and regulatory considerations

• Most of your pipeline will be self-generated: outbound discipline and consistency are non-negotiable

• You’ll need to stay sharp through ambiguity and constant context-switching, while still forecasting accurately and delivering results

? You

Must-haves (evidence, not years)

• Experience in B2B/Enterprise software sales

• Experience with inside and outside sales, including inbound and outbound prospecting

• Ability to create strong relationships with prospects in a growth environment

• Strong work method to organize and prioritise a full pipeline

• Exceptional communication skills

• Fluent in English and Portuguese (internally, we communicate exclusively in English)

Nice-to-have

• Experience with Hubspot or other CRMs

• Insurance or benefits market experience

? Your DNA

• Passion, drive and desire to make a real difference

• Motivated by being part of a growing team

• Focused on continuous self-improvement

• Resilient when things get hard

• Autonomous and proactive in how you work

You’ll probably find this frustrating if…

• You don’t love to communicate

• You don’t love to be in the driver seat

• You don’t like to influence decisions

• You are not persuasive

• You are not an active listener

How to work with me - in the Manager's own words:

I'm pragmatic: if something isn't working, let's fix it fast and move on. I don't do politics. Tell me what you think, even if it's uncomfortable. I'd rather have a hard conversation on day one than a slow problem."
