## Description

We're building local Enterprise Sales Pods across global markets , one AE and one Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), working together to build a Telnyx enterprise business in the Benelux region.

As a Founding Account Executive, you will own a named-account list of 30–40 enterprise accounts across the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg, and your job is to turn those accounts into production Telnyx customers.

You will work side-by-side with a dedicated FDE , not a demo resource, but a technical partner who designs architectures, builds POCs, and gets the first workload live.

Your responsibilities include:

- Owning a territory of 30–40 named enterprise accounts

- Building executive relationships with CIOs, CTOs, VP Engineering, and line-of-business owners

- Running the full sales cycle: prospect, qualify, design the commercial architecture with your FDE, negotiate, and close

- Selling production outcomes, not individual products

- Maintaining disciplined POC management

- Expanding the account

- Building local references and case studies

Requirements:

- 5+ years of enterprise sales experience selling into the Benelux market

- Proven track record of consistently exceeding quota ($1M+ deals)

- Experience selling to both executive and technical buyers

- Hunter mentality

- Strong consultative selling skills

- Familiarity with sales methodologies (MEDDPICC, Challenger, SPIN, etc.)

- Comfortable with modern sales tools (Salesforce, Outreach, Gong, etc.)

- Excellent written and verbal communication in Dutch and English

Bonus points for:

- Fortune 500 or large enterprise new business sales experience in Benelux

- Complex sales cycles including RFPs, POCs, and competitive bake-offs

- C-Level selling experience

- Understanding of SIP trunking, phone number provisioning, carrier networks, or AI/ML platforms
