Account Executive

Our mission is to empower independent supply stores with best-in-class technology. Think of your local hardware store or mom-and-pop nursery—these are our clients. From paint to lumber to flooring, over 200,000 such stores across the country sell over $1T of building materials annually using outdated, on-premises systems. We’re aiming to help them modernize so that they can continue to thrive.

Backed by leading investors including Battery, Bessemer and CRV, we've raised $48M across four rounds and are growing quickly: We're live in over 500 stores across the USA, Canada, and the Caribbean, and integrated with over 20 industry partners. Our team is made up of builders, sellers, and industry veterans with a shared goal: to bring modern technology to an overlooked industry.

You'll be on the ground floor of a high-growth, venture-backed startup reshaping how building materials retailers run their businesses.

  You'll be based out of Chicago / Chicagoland and lead the entire sales process from lead generation to close. This role is primarily outbound sales through a combination of inside and outside sales strategies. You’ll report to Rundoo’s Head of Sales, and work closely with a team of peers who do the same role in other regions. Plus, you will collaborate closely with industry veterans like Reggie and a team of accomplished implementation professionals and BDRs.

  You’ll spend about 50% of your time in-person in office, collaborating closely with team members, and 50% traveling throughout your territory to meet customers in-person.

• You live in the Chicago / Chicagoland area and can work from our office ~50% of the time.

• You are excited to close deals and carry a quota.

• You have a valid U.S. driver’s license.

• You’re energized by frequent travel (~50%) across your assigned states.

• You love building strong relationships with customers: from first conversation through close.

• You've successfully closed new business deals in the $15K–$20K ARR range, especially at Series A startups or companies in a similar growth stage.

• You have experience hunting and closing net-new business in a field sales role.

• You’re familiar with the building materials or construction supply industry: ideally retail.

• You love friendly competition and thrive in a high-performance team.

• You’ve sold a product that is new to the market or required process change for the customer.

• An informal conversation with our Recruiting Team to get to know one another.

• A fast-paced learning session with Matt, our Head of Sales:

• Call with our CEO, Nick.

• Royce - I’m a Texas Tech graduate from Brownwood who worked at Epicor and served as Director of Information Systems at Higginbotham Brothers. I now lead strategic growth at Rundoo, bringing deep software and independent-supply experience.

• Ryan - A husband, dad, and sales lead at Rundoo, always passionate about family, the outdoors, and lowering the golf handicap. Success means working hard, having fun, and making a positive impact along the way.

• Logan — I grew up in Indianapolis and built my career in solar and technology sales, including HubSpot and Instawork. Outside work, I DJ around Chicago and love sports, concerts, movies, and competitive games.

• Anibal — I grew up near Chicago as one of seven siblings and built my career in sales and marketing across the paint industry and independent-distribution ecosystem. I collect classic cars and watches and enjoy leatherwork, woodworking, golf, and new technology.

• Jacob — I started as a paint-store delivery driver, grew into management, and helped open a local dealership over a decade in the industry. I joined Rundoo to make an even bigger impact for the people behind independent-store counters.

• Alex — I’m a Chicago native and University of Arizona alum who returned home after a decade in Arizona to build my sales career at Rundoo. I’m into hiking, travel, fitness, cooking, and learning Spanish.
