Job Description
Role Description
The largest enterprises in the world are making infrastructure decisions right now, replacing legacy tools, modernizing data movement, and locking in the vendors they'll depend on for the next decade. Those deals don't come to you. You have to go find them.
At Files.com, that's exactly the kind of Account Executive we're building this role around.
Here, you'll work exclusively with organizations generating $5 billion or more in annual revenue, including:
- Global manufacturers
- Financial institutions
- Healthcare systems
- Logistics networks
- Major technology enterprises
These are not point-in-time transactional deals. They are multi-stakeholder infrastructure decisions that touch IT operations, security, compliance, and executive leadership, and they close at a level that defines careers.
Our target industries are the ones where secure, compliant data movement is mission-critical:
- Financial services and banking
- Healthcare and life sciences
- Retail
- Manufacturing and logistics
- Professional services
You won't be handed these accounts. You'll build your own pipeline through:
- Outbound prospecting
- Executive relationships
- Industry networking
- Disciplined territory strategy
Inbound opportunities will come your way, but your success depends on your ability to create pipeline that doesn't exist yet, getting in front of IT infrastructure leaders, VP-level buyers, and enterprise decision-makers who have never heard your pitch.
What sets this role apart is the buyer. The prospects you'll call on are serious, technical, and experienced. They have infrastructure architects, security teams, and compliance officers who will evaluate every detail of what you're selling. To win here, you need to speak their language, not as a translator, but as someone who actually understands enterprise IT infrastructure: how it's designed, what breaks, what keeps CISOs up at night, and why legacy tools fail at scale.
Files.com is the right product to sell into this world. We're fast, reliable, and proven across thousands of enterprises, including some of the most demanding environments on the planet. Our engineering team moves mountains for customers, shipping solutions in days, not quarters. When you close a deal, you sell with complete confidence that every promise will be delivered.
Combined with a high-performing team, a leadership culture that rewards results, and compensation built for elite enterprise sellers, this is the environment where your next career-defining deals get closed.
If you've spent years hunting enterprise IT accounts and are ready to bring that expertise to a product that can compete anywhere, this is your seat.
