At ClickUp, we’re not just building software. We’re architecting the future of work! In a world overwhelmed by work sprawl, we saw a better way. That’s why we created the first truly converged AI workspace, unifying tasks, docs, chat, calendar, and enterprise search, all supercharged by context-driven AI, empowering millions of teams to break free from silos, reclaim their time, and unlock new levels of productivity. At ClickUp, you’ll have the opportunity to learn, use, and pioneer AI in ways that shape not only our product, but the future of work itself. Join us and be part of a bold, innovative team that’s redefining what’s possible! 🚀

We’re looking for an Account Executive who has a consistent track record of exceeding quota via expanding client footprint through cross-selling and upselling opportunities. You should have experience with consultative sales processes, selling SaaS (ideally productivity solutions), and working with mid-size to large companies, across a variety of industries.

You are a solution seller by nature, training, and experience, who is genuinely curious, and confident speaking with customers. And, you’re a persuasive self-starter, a good listener, while having a high degree of personal accountability in communicating cross-functionally and maintaining a healthy sales pipeline. Since a majority of your time will be spent on emails, calls, and web conferences with customers, we expect an infectiously positive attitude when prospecting, presenting, and closing!

We are not interested in aggressive or annoying sales tactics - we believe the product is the real reason for converting. Our secret sauce should be framed around how we can ensure people see the value of the solution we provide. If you’re ready for the ride of a lifetime into the billion-dollar unicorn club, please, by all means, click the apply button!

The Role:

  • Full Cycle Management: Own and manage the full sales cycle with current ClickUp Customers—building pipeline, qualifying leads, and closing deals - cross-selling, upselling, and expanding ClickUp’s footprint within current customer organizations.

  • Target Achievement: Consistently achieve and exceed pipeline and sales targets by converting free trials, marketing-qualified leads (MQLs), and demo requests into paid customers.

  • Product Mastery: Become an expert on the ClickUp platform to confidently field customer service and product questions.

  • Presentations & Demos: Deliver compelling product presentations and demos via online web conferencing tools.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Sales Development, Marketing, Solutions Engineering, and Customer Success to ensure a seamless customer journey.

  • Strategic Sourcing: Identify new customer segments and uncover opportunities to improve pipeline quality through proactive prospecting and account expansion.

Qualifications:

  • Experience: 2+ years of relevant full sales cycle experience, with an emphasis on expansion - cross-selling, upselling, and expanding current business (preferably in a high-velocity SaaS environment).

  • Track Record: Proven ability to meet or exceed sales quotas.

  • Skills: Strong communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.

  • Adaptability: Comfortable working in a fast-paced, ever-evolving environment.

  • Technical Savvy: Familiarity with CRM tools like Salesforce or HubSpot.

  • Mindset: You are a "solution seller" by nature—genuinely curious, a good listener, and highly accountable.

Desirable:

  • Experience with project management software or productivity tools.

  • Exposure to e-commerce signup flows or field sales.


Unsure if you meet all the qualifications of this job description but are deeply excited about the role? We hire based on ambition, grit, and a passion for improving the way people work. If you think ClickUp is the company for you, we encourage you to apply!

At ClickUp, we assess every candidate based on the potential impact they can have. We hire the best people for the job and support each person’s journey to build their boldest career.
