The Large Enterprise Account Executive is a strategic, high-growth role designed for proven closers ready to own the Large Enterprise segment. You will own a portfolio of high-potential accounts and untapped non-retail verticals, with the full support of Klaviyo's Large Enterprise organization behind you.

This is a unique role: you will close your own deals across emerging verticals and higher-velocity Large Enterprise accounts, while bringing the drive and instincts of a proven closer to the sophisticated multi-threading, executive alignment, and strategic deal-making that defines the segment. You will act as a key partner to the Large Enterprise (LENT) team, collaborating on complex opportunities and sharpening the enterprise instincts that define the most successful sellers in the industry.

→Strategic Territory Ownership: Develop and execute a "land and expand" strategy for Velocity accounts and high-potential non-retail organizations. You will be the primary driver of new business within this strategic whitespace.
→Collaborative Selling: Partner with Large Enterprise (LENT) AEs on complex, high-value opportunities. You will have the ability to request LENT support for larger deals in exchange for an agreed-upon split, providing you with a front-row seat to enterprise deal mechanics.
→Enterprise Pipeline Acceleration: Take ownership of pre-qualified, high-potential opportunities that come with enterprise deal context already established — including stakeholder mapping, business objectives, and organizational dynamics. You inherit a running start and a built-in collaborative rep on the other side of every co-sell, turning each deal into both a revenue opportunity and a demonstration of enterprise sales excellence.
→Vertical-Specific Prospecting: Conduct personalized, multi-threaded outreach into non-retail verticals, tailoring our value proposition to specific industry pain points and digital transformation goals.
→ROI-Driven Discovery: Lead deep-dive discovery sessions to move beyond features. You will build ROI-backed business cases and bespoke demos that speak directly to the KPIs of C-suite stakeholders.
→Pipeline Rigor & Forecasting: Maintain impeccable Salesforce hygiene. You are expected to manage a diverse pipeline with clear stages, "why/why not" documentation, and accurate forecasting that provides clear visibility to Sales Ops.
→Cross-Functional Leadership: Act as the "quarterback" for your deals, coordinating BDRs, Solutions Architects, and Marketing teams to ensure a unified and professional sales motion.
