We want Enterprise Account Executives who are passionate about making the internet a better place.

Kevel is the market leader in APIs for sites and apps to build their own ad servers. Our Customer list is already a global who’s who in the Internet space with names like Yelp, Ticketmaster, Edmunds, WeTransfer and Grab to name a few. 

As we announce our recent rebrand (from Adzerk to Kevel) and closing a Series A of $11 million, our sales team remains laser-focused on finding customers that are a perfect fit and continues to play a critical part in the next phase of our company's growth.

  • Accurately forecast revenue pipeline and close dates
  • Master our selling process to close deals efficiently
  • Appropriately involve your colleagues, mainly a Solution Architect, to help support your deals
  • Manage your territory to grow pipeline and market share
  • Meet/exceed assigned revenue goals

Skills you’ll bring with you: 

  • 5+ years experience selling software to enterprise customers with demonstrated ability to meet or exceed sales targets (sales experience at an ad tech company is ideal but not required)

  • A clear understanding of how the procurement and legal process works at large companies and have the ability to manage through this process

  • Highly motivated and professional, with excellent communication and interpersonal skills
  • Proven team player with a can do attitude
  • High empathy and listening skills

  • Works to close enterprise opportunities and partners with marketing to create an account based strategy to hunt and nurture leads to generate new business. 
  • Is critical to our growth and every deal you close will have a material impact on our business

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor required by law to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We are also required to measure our progress toward having at least 7% of our workforce be individuals with disabilities. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had a disability. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we ask all of our employees to update their information at least every five years.

Identifying yourself as an individual with a disability is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer will be maintained confidentially and not be seen by selecting officials or anyone else involved in making personnel decisions. Completing the form will not negatively impact you in any way, regardless of whether you have self-identified in the past.
