Founding GTM/ Account Executive

San Francisco, CA
Full-time
Visa Sponsorship

About the role

We're hiring our first GTM hire: a founding, full-cycle Account Executive to own the US market. This is not a hand-off role and not a role with a playbook waiting for you: you'll build the playbook. You'll own the entire cycle, from sourcing pipeline to closing, working shoulder-to-shoulder with the founders, and you'll help define how Covera sells in the US.

You'll be the person who turns our early traction into a repeatable US sales engine, and as we grow you'll have first claim on leading it.

What you'll do

  • Own the full cycle, end to end: prospecting, outbound, discovery, demo, negotiation and close, for insurance brokers and agencies across the US.
  • Source your own pipeline. Treat outbound as a craft: sharp targeting, personalized outreach, referrals, and industry events.
  • Run rigorous discovery and tailored demos with agency principals, operations leaders and executives; partner with the founders and engineering on POCs and smooth onboarding.
  • Build the playbook from scratch (talk tracks, sequences, pricing muscle, objection handling) and document what works so it scales to the next hires.
  • Live in the numbers. Own your pipeline metrics, conversion, and forecast with total rigor and clean CRM hygiene.
  • Feed the field back into the product. Surface objections, gaps and patterns to the founders to sharpen positioning and the roadmap.

Who you are

  • Native English speaker, selling into the US market with strong executive presence.
  • 2 to 5 years of B2B closing / full-cycle sales experience, ideally in a fast-growing startup environment.
  • Hyper-ambitious. You want to go all-in on a fast-growing company, be exceptional at what you do, and be on a path to lead, or one day build your own thing.
  • Obsessed with numbers. You measure everything, forecast honestly, and treat your pipeline like a system you optimize, not a spreadsheet you tolerate.
  • A self-starter who thrives in ambiguity. No process exists yet; you create it, own it, and move with urgency.
  • Competitive and coachable: you take feedback and apply it immediately.
  • Bonus: experience selling into insurance, insurtech, financial services, or early-stage B2B SaaS; experience as a founding/early AE building a motion from scratch.
