Account Executive - SMB/Mid Market (f/m/d)

AI overview

Drive growth in the UK market by managing a diverse sales pipeline and leveraging inbound demand within a high-performing team in a fast-growing startup.

Your mission

deskbird is making a strong investment in the UK, and this role places you at the heart of that growth! We’re hiring a high-impact Account Executive based in London to help drive deskbird’s expansion across the local market.

This is not a typical “plug-and-play” AE role. It’s a frontline growth position with genuine ownership, high visibility, and meaningful upside.

You’ll be joining a market where we already see solid traction, increasing brand awareness, and a healthy stream of inbound demand, giving you the opportunity to build on momentum rather than start from scratch.

As part of deskbird, a fast-growing workplace tech company backed by a $23M Series B and trusted by leading global brands, you’ll work alongside an ambitious, high-performing team with a proven product, a clear strategy, and significant room to scale further in the UK.

If you’re looking for a role where you can close deals, shape a growing market, and have a real impact on the business, this is it.

In this role you will

  • Own and scale a high-potential sales pipeline, fueled by both targeted outbound efforts and a strong stream of existing inbound leads.
  • Run the full sales cycle end to end, from prospecting and discovery to negotiation and close, across SMB, Mid-Market, and Enterprise accounts.
  • Capitalize on existing UK traction, accelerating deals in a market where interest and demand are already proven.
  • Develop a deep understanding of customer pain points and position deskbird as the go-to solution for modern, hybrid workplaces.
  • Build trusted relationships with senior decision-makers and influence buying decisions at scale.
  • Consistently exceed revenue targets by executing smart, data-driven outbound and account strategies.
  • Work closely with leadership to help build and scale a world-class U.K go-to-market engine. Reporting directly to the Founder and CEO. 
  • You will play a key part in shaping our new office hub and building our presence in London. You should therefore be comfortable working from the office 3-4 times per week to drive the market growth and lead the UK expansion. 

What you need to be successful

  • 3+ years of experience in SaaS B2B sales, with a strong emphasis on outbound.
  • A proven track record of pipeline generation and closing both outbound and high-velocity inbound deals.
  • Experience selling to SMB and Mid-Market customers.
  • High ownership mentality - you thrive in environments where you build, iterate, and move fast.
  • A passion for outbound sales, business development, and winning competitive deals.
