Axiom Cloud is transforming how the world’s cooling systems are powered, operated, and maintained in order to generate significant climate and financial impact. We need to deliver fantastic products at a massive scale to realize this mission.

Axiom Cloud’s customers include several major North American grocery chains, and the company is on-track to deploy services at our 100th customer site in the coming months. To help accelerate our growth, we are seeking an Account Executive with refrigeration, HVAC, facilities, or grocery domain expertise. This account executive should have proven success selling enterprise software to Axiom’s key customer stakeholders such as energy, facilities, and sustainability managers, including a focus on customer success. This is an empowering, high-impact, customer-facing role, and the right Account Executive is expected to become one of Axiom Cloud’s top revenue generators. The job requires the typical attributes of a great salesperson, account manager, market strategist, and customer advocate. It also requires a willingness to learn the technical side of how Axiom Cloud’s subscription-based apps use AI, cloud computing and automation to solve commercial refrigeration’s biggest energy and maintenance challenges.

• Collaborate with Engineering, Operations, Sales, and Support teams to resolve customer issues post-launch, focused on customer satisfaction and revenue retention
• Regularly review key performance indicators for improvement opportunities and propose process optimizations where applicable
• Play a pivotal role in growing the sales team and serve as a mentor to junior sales team members
