Job Description

Nexthink is redefining how IT teams understand and improve the daily digital experience of their employees. For organizations, the pressure is real: hybrid work, application sprawl, device performance issues, rising ticket volume, and growing expectations from employees who expect technology to “just work.”

That is where Nexthink comes in.

As a Commercial Account Executive, you will help IT leaders move from reactive troubleshooting to proactive experience management. You will show customers how Nexthink gives them real-time visibility, actionable insights, and automation to improve employee productivity, reduce friction, and deliver measurable business value.

**This role will be based out of our Boston, MA office and requires 3 days per week onsite.**

This is an ideal role for a seller who is ready to move beyond transactional sales and own a territory with real growth potential.

What you will do

  • Build and grow new business across organizations with 5000-10,000 endpoints
  • Prospect, qualify, and develop a strong pipeline of target accounts.
  • Lead account planning focused on customer pain, business outcomes, and measurable value.
  • Run high-quality discovery with IT, Digital Workplace, End User Computing, Service Desk, and Operations leaders.
  • Coordinate internal resources across pre-sales, professional services, customer success, marketing, and partners.
  • Build trust with customers by becoming a credible advisor on Digital Employee Experience.
  • Manage both tactical opportunities and larger strategic deals within your territory.
  • Work with Nexthink partners to strengthen account coverage and customer impact.
  • Lead negotiations, pricing strategy, and contract management with a win-win mindset.
  • Maintain accurate quarterly and annual forecasts.
  • Live our values: We are one team. We are positive. We keep growing. We get things done.

Qualifications

What makes you a strong fit:

  • 2+ years of SaaS sales experience, ideally in inside sales, commercial sales, or a closing role.
  • Proven track record of pipeline generation, opportunity creation, and quota achievement.
  • Strong prospecting discipline and experience optimizing sales cadences.
  • Ability to sell business value, not just product features.
  • Confidence engaging IT and business stakeholders.
  • Excellent relationship-building and communication skills.
  • Strong CRM hygiene and forecasting discipline.
  • Comfortable using Microsoft Office and modern sales tools.
  • Ability to quickly learn Nexthink’s platform, the DEX category, and customer use cases.
  • Positive, resilient, curious, and motivated by growth.

    The base salary for this role is $70,000-80,000 gross per year, with a total on-target earnings (OTE) range of $140,000-160,000 with additional opportunity to earn commissions above this range.
