  • Proactively identify new lead sources and learn about potential customers
  • Convert signups into enthusiastic, long-term Mercury champions
  • Manage a high volume of high-velocity sales cycles using internal tools
  • Collaborate with our Relationship Management team to onboard complex customers
  • Work cross-functionally with the Partnerships team to unlock new acquisition channels
  • Translate customer feedback into insights that inform product development

What We're Looking For:

  • Based in San Francisco or New York City
  • A bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
  • 1+ year of closing experience in a sales or account executive role
  • Confidence in building and managing a high-quality pipeline
  • Strong discovery and consultative selling skills
  • A sense of urgency and ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment
  • Willingness to share feedback to improve our sales process and product
  • A collaborative mindset and desire to support your teammates
  • Excellent communication skills—able to simplify complex topics
