About The Role
To accelerate our growth across EMEA, we’re searching for an exceptional Senior Account Executive to join the team at Shopify. Your mission will be to help mid-market businesses in Italy (with revenues between €5-40M online) identify their goals and make the right choices for their success.
This team will be critical to our long-term success and will have the opportunity to shape Shopify's growth. We are in hyper-growth mode, and this is where you come in.
Key Responsibilities:
- Drive sales revenue through new client acquisition within some of EMEA’s most exciting brands.
- Actively manage the sales process, including positioning, presenting, demoing Shopify, and closing sales.
- Serve as expert commerce when engaging with prospects.
- Build and manage a book of business through outbound prospecting and inbound opportunities.
- Stay organized by effectively managing an account set and keeping detailed, accurate notes of all sales-related activities.
- Identify each client’s unique needs and develop effective sales strategies.
- Work cross-functionally with other teams, particularly partnerships, and take ownership of various events.
- Achieve your sales targets and performance metrics.
Qualifications:
- Proficiency in both English and native Italian is essential for doing business.
- Shopify is a remote company, but we participate in many customer and partner events across Italy, travelling to Italy at least once a month will be required.
- Extensive technology sales experience in a closing role within a fast-paced environment, focusing on consultative solution selling for a SaaS or eCommerce company, with a proven track record of overachievement.
- Demonstrated experience in managing full and complex sales cycles, preferably in a technology or software product environment.
- You are a commerce subject-matter expert and understand unique business needs, enabling you to demonstrate how merchants can significantly grow their businesses.
- A demonstrated ability to drive sales with all stakeholders (from business to IT, mid-level to senior executives), consistently achieving success in a fast-paced, high-growth sales environment.
- Experience orchestrating multiple internal resources to strengthen sales initiatives, solve merchant problems, and close deals.
- High comfort level with deep technical product knowledge, aspiring to become a Shopify product expert.
- Merchant-obsessed: You are customer-focused and do the right things the right way every time.
- Driven: You have a results-oriented attitude with a growth mindset.
- Analytical: You are capable of providing consistent and accurate sales forecasts.
- Solution-oriented: You can identify and creatively solve complex problems to keep the sales process on track.
- Thrive on change: Commerce is always evolving, Shopify is ever-changing, and adaptability is essential.
Opportunity is not evenly distributed. Shopify puts independence within reach for anyone with a dream to start a business. We propel entrepreneurs and enterprises to scale the heights of their potential. Since 2006, we’ve grown to over 8,300 employees and generated over $1 trillion in sales for millions of merchants in 175 countries.
This is life-defining work that directly impacts people’s lives as much as it transforms your own. This is putting the power of the few in the hands of the many, is a future with more voices rather than fewer, and is creating more choices instead of an elite option.
About You
Moving at our pace brings a lot of change, complexity, and ambiguity—and a little bit of chaos. Shopifolk thrive on that and are comfortable being uncomfortable. That means Shopify is not the right place for everyone.
Before you apply, consider if you can:
- Care deeply about what you do and about making commerce better for everyone
- Excel by seeking professional and personal hypergrowth
- Keep up with an unrelenting pace (the week, not the quarter)
- Be resilient and resourceful in face of ambiguity and thrive on (rather than endure) change
- Bring critical thought and opinion
- Use AI tools reflexively as part of your fundamental workflow
- Embrace differences and disagreement to get shit done and move forward
- Work digital-first for your daily work
