Account Executive - Italy Milano

Account Executive - Italy
Milano
Lombardia, Milano

Ciao!

Do you speak Italian and want to join a rapidly growing business?

Cash is old school.

Out of pocket expenses suck.

Workplaces need to be more trusting, progressive and - that's right, we're gonna say it - fun.

The Pleo product ends out of pocket spending and gets rid of the outdated manual expensing process.

The best part is when you join us you become a user of Pleo too!

Pleo is looking for an Account Executive to join the team.

As an Account Executive, your primary focus is to spread the good word about Pleo in Italy and help us scale in the region. You will be responsible for the entire sales cycle from prospecting leads via outbound activities, qualifying opportunities, delivering amazing product demos, converting deals to handing over your deals to our customer experience team.

**The Role**:

- Exploring and strategically developing Pleo's market in Italy

- Qualifying opportunities

- Outbound sales conversations & holding demos with forward thinking companies

- Converting deals and closing before handing over clients to our Customer Experience team.

- You'll also be partially supported by marketing, who deliver warm leads straight into your pipe (at an above-industry-standard rate).

**What we need from you on the first day**:

- **An entrepreneurial mindset - **we need you to strategically build our Italian presence

- **Complete fluency in Italian **(& fluency in English, our company language)

- **Ambition** - lots of it - and strong inner motivation paired with a positive mindset (it's the key to hitting targets )

- **Winning attitude**:

- knowing that there are easy days and hard days and the ability to get through them both

- **Leadership potential** - we are growing and we want you to grow with us!

**What's in it for me?

**:

- Uncapped commission structure

- Bricks programme onboarding programme

- Full 'Pleo' sales onboarding and continuous coaching, we'll equip you with all the tools you need to hit your targets.

- We're Series C and rapidly scaling; grow your career in Sales with us or even move to another team, we're open!

- Your own Pleo card (no more out-of-pocket spending) - as a remote worker you get a budget to kit out your home office (no more back problems from your old chair) and a budget to spend on co-working space if you want to get out of your home office!

- Quarterly trips to somewhere for team camps (both company-wide ones and team-specific ones).

The last one was in Costa Brava, Spain in September!

- Investment in learning & developing (just check with your team for what's reasonable, we don't have set budgets)

**And here are some other nice gestures that we do**:

- 25 days holidays (annual)

- Loads of weird and wonderful niche communities to join in the company (we're talking guerrilla gardening, liquids tasting, the Pleo band, learning to code initiatives, that type of thing)

- Wild enthusiasm and encouragement from us if you want to host MeetUps, events, etc - we'll help (venue, food etc)

**Why work here?

**:

Working at Pleo means you're working on something very exciting: the future of work.

Through fintech we've seen a way to impact how people work; we think company spending should be delegated to all employees and teams, that it should be as automated as possible, and that it should drive a culture of responsible spending.

Based on some pretty amazing Series C-round investment in 2021 we think we're onto something big.

So, in a nutshell, that's Pleo.

Today we are a 500+ team, from over 54 nations, sitting in our Copenhagen HQ, London, Stockholm, Berlin, Madrid, Montreal, or Lisbon offices - and quite a few full-time remotes in 22 other countries!

Being HQ'd out of Copenhagen means we're inspired by sensible things like a good work-life balance.

If you don't work in the office with us we'll help you get up the best remote setup possible, and will fly you in for our amazing team camps ? ?
