About Us

We’re an innovative tech company delivering cutting‑edge technical solutions while also providing on‑demand and permanent technical resourcing services to our clients. We are not a recruitment agency – we work as a strategic partner to help businesses achieve their technology goals.

As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a dynamic and results‑driven Account Executive to join our team and drive revenue through both solution sales and our resourcing services.

• Selling value, not just price, and building trusted client relationships.
• Working to KPIs, targets, and deadlines consistently.
• Developing innovative strategies to attract and retain clients.
• Collaborating with marketing, bid, and delivery teams to craft winning proposals and pitches.
• Representing Akoni at networking events, industry meetups, and partner sessions.

Qualifications

• 2–4 years of proven B2B sales experience, ideally within technology, staffing solutions, or professional services.
• A track record of consistently meeting and exceeding sales targets.
• Confident on the phone and in person – not afraid of cold calling or pitching.
• Strong presentation and communication skills for pitching solutions and resourcing services.
• Creative and proactive mindset for generating new business opportunities.
• Ability to manage multiple sales streams (technical solutions and staffing services).
• Resilient, self‑motivated, and target‑driven.
