About the Role:

As an SMB Outbound Account Executive, you’ll have the opportunity to work with our largest line of revenue. SMB customers make up the majority of our customer base and are our largest revenue stream. We are looking for sales professionals who are competitive, driven, strong communicators, and consistently practice refining their skillset. You should be coachable and relentless towards hitting your goals and targets.

What You'll Do:

  • High volume cold calling, prospecting new business and making outbound calls. Expect to have a high volume of outbound calls with a small number of qualified prospects responding. This is a cold-calling full-cycle sales role.
  • Demo Motive software to prospective fleet managers and drivers. 
  • Survey prospects to understand pain points within their business so you can align those business needs with the Motive solution.
  • Educate fleet managers and drivers about Motive, understand their requirements, and help them get started with Motive.
  • Maintain a consistent pipeline of qualified prospects and provide accurate forecasts for revenue.
  • Effectively plan to meet and exceed your ongoing business goals and revenue quotas.
  • Develop a deep understanding of our technology platform and operations, using that understanding and market input to bring back iterations to our business.
  • Constantly study and deepen understanding of market trends to enable consultative insight.

What We're Looking For:

  • Preferably 2+ years of outbound sales experience preferably with B2B international clients (US/Canada/UK)
  • Repeated success with a full sales motion - strong track record of hunting, exceeding quotas and rapidly growing your book over time, backed up by data
  • Strong end-to-end ownership attitude from prospecting, demonstrations, to closing.
  • Strong ability to build rapport with executive decision-makers, influencing outcomes through both an understanding of the customer’s business and the unique solutions that Motive can deliver
  • History of working independently with a data-driven mindset for charting a path to short, medium, and long-term sales goals
  • Best-in-class communication skills, with the ability to successfully convey key value propositions and quickly manage objections
  • Bachelor's Degree (preferably an overseas degree from US/UK/Canada) and/or exposure to US/Canada/UK B2B customers.

Creating a diverse and inclusive workplace is one of Motive's core values. We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome people of different backgrounds, experiences, abilities and perspectives.

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in Motive’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.


Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
