Let’s face it: out-of-pocket expenses suck. And manual expense spreadsheets are old-school. No one wants to wait until payday to be reimbursed for something they bought for work, and finance teams have better things to do than spend hours tapping away on Excel. At Pleo, we’re on a mission to change this. We’re here to make spend management surprisingly effective and empowering – for finance teams and employees.

We’re doing away with an outdated business process to end out-of-pocket spending, encourage autonomy and give finance teams trust in employees. You'll be selling the SaaS tool (company spending solution) that comes with physical pre-paid cards that are then distributed to all employees of the company. But Pleo’s about more than just paying for stuff. You’ll be helping our customers simplify and streamline their invoices, reimbursements, subscriptions – the lot.

This role is based at our London office 🇬🇧

What's the role? 👀

• As a Commercial Account Executive, you will be responsible for generating revenue from our ‘Commercial’ segment clients, in UKI Market 
• Your goal and targets will be based on the creation of new business opportunities, through outbound prospecting, then working to manage & close these deals.
• You’ll also be working on also growing revenue and upselling to your existing portfolio of clients
• You'll be able to confidently run demonstrations of the Pleo product, and field any objections or questions from customers.
• You’ll be responsible for accurate forecasting and managing your pipeline hygiene

What we need from you on the first day 🤩

• Prior experience in a sales or account management role, where you have had exposure to outbound prospecting, is great!
• You can either speak to your successful track record from experience within a closing and/or upselling role

• Experience within a similar, SaaS company would be an extra bonus
• You can show us your drive and ability to constantly learn, grow and adapt to change
• You can communicate confidently on phone, and via other forms of outreach, with Pleo’s client base.
