About the role

  • You're not just an account manager, and you're not just a hunter.
  • You're a full-cycle enterprise seller who can grow what we have and win what we don't. ​You will have existing accounts while you are also focused on new logos.

  • ​Identify and engage VP-level and above stakeholders in IT operations, infrastructure, data movement, security, and compliance - the people who own the problem Files.com solves
  • ​We've built a $35M+ business with just 70 people by hiring smart, disciplined, and high-output teammates who act fast and own outcomes.
  • Free breakfast daily, plenty of room to collaborate, and the vibrancy of Austin right outside the door.
  • You'll enter with a book of business and a defined territory to build.

Skills

  • closed expansion deals, multiple net-new logos won, a self-sustaining outbound motion, and measurable contribution to both NRR and new ARR.
  • Why This Role Matters

Company info

  • ​We're Files.com, a profitable, founder-led SaaS company powering secure file transfer and automation for 4,000+ brands you know: Marc Jacobs, GrubHub, Michelin, Hot Topic, Stamps.com, Planet Fitness, KFC, and more.
  • Backed by $46.5M from Riverwood Capital, we're scaling intentionally - and this role is a critical piece of that growth.
  • ​Our office is brand-new space in the heart of downtown Austin, surrounded by energy, culture, and some of the best food and nightlife in Texas.
  • ​Twice a year, we bring the whole team together for energizing off-sites in cities like New Orleans, Nashville, and Miami.
  • ​ What You'll Do
  • Expand Existing Strategic Accounts:
  • ​Bring customer insight back into the organization to influence priorities and decisions​
  • Win New Enterprise Logos:
  • ​Generate the majority of your new-logo pipeline through strategic outbound prospecting, executive networking, and referrals at companies with $5B+ in revenue
  • ​Run discovery with infrastructure depth: surface legacy modernization, compliance risk, and operational complexity, and connect them to clear business value
  • ​Think strategically about enterprise-wide value, structure large multi-department contracts, and close deals that reflect the full scope of what Files.com can do
  • ​Navigate complex deals across IT leadership, security teams, procurement, and executive sponsors, keeping alignment and momentum across long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles
  • Across Both Motions:
  • Become a true Files.com expert - understanding the platform's architecture, security model, compliance capabilities, and integrations at a level that earns credibility with the most technical buyers
  • Forecast and execute with discipline: build, maintain, and accurately forecast a healthy pipeline, consistently achieving or exceeding quota
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Support, and Customer Success to align execution and deliver real outcomes
  • What This Role Is (and Is Not)
  • ​This is not a passive account management role.
  • It is not a pure inbound AE role either.
  • ​You will enter with a book of existing strategic accounts - real customers, real expansion potential, and a foundation to build on immediately.
  • As a Strategic Account Executive, QBRs and account reviews are not box-checking exercises - they are tools to create alignment, earn trust, and unlock expansion.
