About SalesJack

SalesJack is the sales platform built specifically for lumber yards and building materials dealers. We integrate directly with dealer ERPs, surface declining accounts and cross-sell gaps automatically, and turn building permit data into routed leads for outside sales reps. Customers like PARR Lumber have driven $500K+ in new revenue in six months using our workflows.

We're a small, founder-led team selling into a $700B industry that's been ignored by generic CRMs for decades. The dealers we sell to are 50- to 500-person businesses run by owners and GMs who care deeply about their teams, their margins, and their customers. They want a partner who understands their business, not a sales rep reading a script.

 
The Role

We're hiring our next Account Executive to own the full sales cycle into independent LBM dealers across North America. This is a consultative, multi-stakeholder sale. Deals involve owners, sales managers, IT leads, and finance and the conversation centers on how a dealer runs their sales operation, not on feature checklists.

You'll inherit a defined ICP, a target account list, warm inbound from our content and events motion, and a product with live reference customers. You'll work directly with the founders on positioning, pricing, and product feedback. Your input will shape what we build and how we go to market.

 
What You'll Own
  • Full cycle ownership from first conversation through signed contract and successful pilot discovery, demo, pilot scoping, business case, procurement, and close

  • A defined territory of independent LBM dealers, with named target accounts and a pipeline you'll build through a mix of outbound, warm inbound, partner referrals (LMC, LBM Advantage), and conference follow-up

  • Multi-stakeholder deal navigation: building consensus across owners, sales leadership, operations, and IT, often over 60-120 day cycles

  • Pilot management: partnering with our implementation team to scope and run paid pilots that convert to full deployments

  • Account expansion within your book as dealers add locations, users, and adjacent product modules

  • GTM influence: direct input into messaging, pricing structure, competitive positioning, and product roadmap based on what you hear in the field

What We're Looking For
  • 3-5+ years closing B2B SaaS deals: ideally selling to mid-market companies with multiple decision-makers

  • Consultative selling instincts: you build business cases, lead executive conversations, and earn trust with operators who've seen plenty of vendors come and go

  • Comfort with technical sales: you can speak credibly about ERP integrations, data workflows, and how a sales team actually operates day-to-day

  • Founder-mode bias: you want input on the product, the pricing, and the playbook, and you're energized by building rather than executing someone else's process

  • Industry knowledge is a strong plus: experience selling into construction, building products, manufacturing, or distribution will accelerate your ramp significantly. Direct LBM background is exceptional but not required.

Why This Seat
  • Early team, defined market. You're not a number on a board. You'll be one of a handful of AEs owning a clear segment of a large, underserved industry.

  • Direct founder access. You'll work alongside the CEO and co-founder on every meaningful deal, with real influence on how the company evolves.

  • Compensation built for closers. Competitive base, uncapped commission, and meaningful equity.

  • Path forward. Early AEs at SalesJack are on track for senior AE, strategic accounts, and sales leadership seats as we grow.
