What you'll do
At Nira, the customers you'll be selling to are renewable energy developers. These are companies that find land to purchase to build large-scale solar, wind, and battery plants. Typically, the buyer has the title "Head of Development" - they're responsible for actually picking the plots of land to purchase / build on.
As our first Account Executive hire, we'll want you to be a part of every interaction our customer has with Nira. Responsibilities include:
- Own the entire sales process, from prospecting to closing deals
- Work closely with our CEO on building out the sales playbook / scaling the team
- Within 6 months, be able to independently manage one of our key markets and all growth in that market
- Customer success / gathering customer feedback for future product development
- Travel to trade shows ~once a quarter
