Who We Need

Clasp is looking for a high-performing Account Executive to hunt and close long-term, high-value customer partnerships. This is a consultative, enterprise sales role for someone who thrives in complex buying environments, owns a deal end-to-end, and brings curiosity, discipline, and strategic thinking to every deal.

As an AE at Clasp, you will own the sales lifecycle from networking and outreach to generate qualified deals, to guiding the prospect through their buyer’s journey. You’ll lead the process every step of the way, from first conversation through close using deep discovery, tailored solutioning, and data-backed storytelling. You’ll collaborate closely with Leadership, Marketing, Product, and Partner Success to deliver a high-trust buying experience that reflects Clasp’s values. This role is critical to accelerating ARR growth, creating a new category in the marketplace, and upholding Clasp as a partner not a vendor.

Close deals to meet or exceed quarterly ARR targets

Lead complex, consultative sales cycles from discovery through close, aligning Clasp’s solutions to customer business outcomes

Deliver well-structured and persuasive sales presentations that frame the value of a Clasp partnership within the prospect’s priorities and problems

Develop and design custom programs for customers based on a deep understanding of their business requirements; provide thorough, data-driven ROI analysis to make the business case

Build and manage strong middle-to-late funnel deal strategy, including regular touchpoints, stakeholder alignment, mullti-threading, and purchase process mapping

Represent Clasp externally at industry conferences and events, generating top-of-funnel opportunities, and building trusted relationships

Maintain disciplined CRM hygiene and accurate forecasting for all owned companies, contacts, and deals

Work cross-functionally with Marketing and Partner Success teams to ensure seamless handoffs and improved conversion rates

Provide feedback to Clasp’s Product team identifying enhancements frequently requested during sales processes that will improve Clasp’s win and retention rate

What You’ll Need

2+ years of proven experience carrying a quota and consistently meeting or exceeding revenue targets in a B2B sales role

2+ years of experience working at a Series B or earlier B2B startup

Experience running consultative, value-based sales cycles in complex or enterprise environments

Strong coachability and critical thinking skills to continuously improve

Demonstrated curiosity and learning agility in becoming an industry expert in regulated or complex industries

Ability to customize messaging, demos, and proposals based on stakeholder needs and business context

Comfort navigating multi-stakeholder deals, objections, and longer sales cycles

Comfort with embracing evolving processes, resources, and proof points given the early nature of Clasp’s offering

Demonstrated ownership, discipline, and operational rigor, including forecasting accuracy and CRM hygiene
