Junior AE | SaaS

🚀 SMB Account Executive (Step-up from SDR → AE)

📍 London (Hybrid)

💰 £50k–£70k base + Double OTE

Are you a high-performing SDR/BDR ready to step into a true Account Executive role?

This is not another “more of the same” SDR job.

This is your opportunity to move into closing.

We’re hiring for a global AdTech company launching a brand-new self-serve motion in the UK — and they’re looking for someone who’s proven they can generate pipeline and is now ready to take ownership of real revenue.

💡 Why this role stands out

  • Clear step from SDR → AE
  • You don’t just book meetings — you run them
  • You help prospects go live on the platform (real closing exposure)
  • One of the first hires in this segment globally
  • Huge growth potential as this channel scales

This is essentially a “BDR+ / Junior AE” role — designed for someone who’s outgrown pure prospecting and wants to own more of the sales cycle.

🎯 What you’ll be doing

  • Owning outbound pipeline generation (calls, email, LinkedIn)
  • Running discovery calls with SMB clients & agencies
  • Positioning a self-serve AdTech platform
  • Guiding prospects from first touch → activation
  • Operating in a high-volume, fast-paced environment
  • Helping shape the GTM motion for this new segment

👤 Who this is perfect for

  • SDR/BDR with 1–3 years experience who is consistently hitting/exceeding target
  • Someone who wants to break into closing roles but hasn’t been given the chance yet
  • A true hunter who enjoys outbound and picking up the phone
  • Someone from a SaaS / tech background (AdTech not required)

✅ Must-haves

  • Proven outbound track record (calls + structured approach)
  • Clear personal prospecting playbook (you know your numbers)
  • Strong commercial mindset & curiosity
  • Experience in a fast-paced / scale-up environment
  • Stable career history
  • Highly driven, competitive, and money-motivated

🚫 Not for you if

  • You prefer inbound or marketing-led environments
  • You don’t enjoy cold calling
  • You’re not aiming to move into a closing role

📈 What success looks like

Within 6–12 months, you’ve:

  • Proven you can generate and convert pipeline
  • Built experience running real sales conversations
  • Positioned yourself for a full AE role internally

Let's go!
