Cidade: Lisboa, Lisboa
Tipo de contrato: Tempo total
Bonjour!
Intro
At Pleo, we’re on a mission to revolutionise the way businesses manage company spending. No more outdated processes, clunky spreadsheets, or frustrating delays, we believe spend management should be seamless, empowering, and surprisingly effective for finance teams and employees alike. We’re creating tools that promote autonomy, foster trust, and let businesses focus on what truly matters.
Our culture is built on transparency, collaboration, and a deep commitment to innovation, which is reflected in our spending solution. At Pleo, you’ll join a passionate team shaping the future of work, all while having some fun along the way.
About The Role
We're looking for a Commercial Account Executive to join our sales team for the French market at Pleo. In this role, you'll help drive revenue growth within our Commercial segment in France and be part of a dynamic sales team as we scale Pleo's innovative spend management solution. If you're excited about generating new business opportunities, managing a pipeline from prospecting to close, and upselling to existing clients and are passionate about transforming how companies manage their finances, then this is the opportunity for you! You can be based in our Paris or Lisbon offices
What you'll be doing
As a Commercial Account Executive, you will:
You'll thrive in this role if you have:
You'll report to our Sales Manager in France, and work closely with our Commercial Sales team in France, as well as colleagues across our European offices. Our team is highly collaborative and dedicated to achieving ambitious new business targets. You'll also have the chance to partner with teams across Product, Marketing, and Customer Success to ensure success and a seamless customer experience
Show me the benefits!
Working at Pleo means you're working on something very exciting: the future of work. Our mission is to help every company go beyond the books. Pleo itself means ‘more than you’d expect’, and it’s been the secret to our success over the last 8 years. So it’s only fitting that we’d pass this philosophy onto our customers to help them make the most of their finances.
We think company spending should be delegated to all employees and teams, that it should be as automated as possible, and that it should drive a culture of responsible spending. Finance teams shouldn’t be siloed from the rest of the organisation – they should work in unity with marketing, sales, IT and everyone else.
Speaking of working in unity, our values tell the story of how we work at Pleo. We have four core values, the first of which is ‘champion the customer’, which means we address real pain points that businesses face. Next up is ‘succeed as a team’, which highlights how our strength lies in our diversity and trust in each other. We also ‘make it happen’ by taking bold decisions and following through to deliver results. Last but not least, we ‘build to scale’, creating lasting solutions that address today’s challenges and anticipate tomorrow’s needs.
So, in a nutshell, that's Pleo. Today we are a 850+ team, from over 100 nations, sitting in our Copenhagen HQ, London, Stockholm, Berlin, Madrid, Montreal and Lisbon offices —and quite a few full-time remotes in 35 other countries! Being HQ'd out of Copenhagen means we're inspired by things like a good work-life balance. If you don't work in the office with us, we'll help you set up the best remote setup possible and make sure you still have time to connect with your team.
