About the role

  • We're looking for a talented Territory Account Executive who doesn't shy away from tackling hard problems and interesting (well, most times) subjects like payroll and HR technology.

Responsibilities

  • Meet or exceed territory quota for net-new signed partners and the sub-clients those partners bring onto Wagepoint within their first 12 months.
  • Activate and grow newly signed partners across their first 12 months, partnering with onboarding and partner enablement to hit 30/60/90 activation milestones.
  • Be the in-market expert on Wagepoint and Canadian payroll - representing the product, the partner program, and our value confidently in person, on calls, and on stage.
  • Maintain forecast accuracy and CRM discipline with weekly forecast submissions, clean opportunity stages, next steps, and close dates.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Marketing on territory demand generation, with Partner Account Management on long-term retention handoffs, and with Product and Onboarding to surface field feedback that improves the partner experience.
  • What You'll Be Expected To Own: Meet or exceed territory quota for net-new signed partners and the sub-clients those partners bring onto Wagepoint within their first 12 months.
  • Run a disciplined field-sales motion with at least three days per week on the road in your assigned territory, including in-person partner meetings, regional events, and on-site enablement.
  • Own the full partner sales cycle end-to-end: discovery, demos, negotiation, contracting, and a clean warm handoff to onboarding.
  • What You Bring To The Table: Experience 3-5 years of quota-carrying sales experience, with at least 2 years selling through a partner, channel, or referral-led model.
  • You've coached partners on how to position, sell, and onboard a SaaS product to their clients.

  • Willingness to travel for regional events, conferences, and partner visits as required.

Nice to have

Compensation

  • This role offers a base salary of $95,000 with $125,000 in target variable compensation, for an on-target earning of $130,000 - $220,000.

  • The app is ideal for small businesses across North America (US & Canada) who are looking to pay their employees easily and quickly.

Benefits

  • Self-generate pipeline through outbound prospecting, in-person territory work, referrals, and event-driven sourcing - maintaining a 3x pipeline coverage ratio.
