Strategic Account Executive 7

Wrike • Remote (US - Remote) • 6d ago

Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs

Enterprise SaaS sales remains one of the clearest paths to outsized impact, and this Strategic Account Executive role sits squarely in that arena: selling work management software into very large organizations with complex buying committees. The remit spans new-logo acquisition and expansion, positioning the role at the intersection of value storytelling, stakeholder alignment, and measurable ROI—core mechanics of modern B2B SaaS go-to-market.

From a career standpoint, the listing signals sustained exposure to the parts of SaaS that tend to translate across categories: running multi-threaded cycles, forecasting with discipline in Salesforce, and navigating procurement, security, and legal workflows that shape enterprise velocity. The emphasis on cross-functional orchestration (Solutions, Implementation, Legal, Security, Marketing) also builds a practical understanding of how SaaS revenue is delivered end-to-end, not just closed.

This role is best suited to sales professionals who prefer consultative, structured selling and are comfortable operating at executive level while keeping process rigor. It fits someone who wants ownership of complex deals, enjoys coordinating internal specialists, and values learning through enterprise change-management conversations rather than transactional selling.
