    The Role

    We're hiring a Mid-Market Account Executive to drive new business across growth-stage and mid-market employers.

    • Generating outbound pipeline
    • Converting inbound MQLs into qualified meetings
    • Running structured discovery
    • Advancing and closing opportunities

    You are expected to maintain 3–5x pipeline coverage relative to quota and manage forecasting with rigor and discipline.

    This is a hunter role with high autonomy and high accountability.

    You'll work closely with the CEO, Head of Sales, and Marketing to refine messaging, target the right accounts, and build a repeatable mid-market motion.

    What You'll DoGenerate Pipeline

    • Prospect into target accounts through cold calls, email sequences, LinkedIn, referrals, and creative outreach.
    • Build and maintain a healthy, self-sourced pipeline.
    • Convert inbound MQLs into qualified discovery meetings and pipeline.
    • Maintain 3–5x pipeline coverage at all times.

    Run Full-Cycle Sales

    • Own every stage of the sales process, from first touch to signed contract.
    • Run structured discovery and stakeholder mapping.
    • Deliver tailored demos and executive presentations.
    • Build ROI-driven business cases for HR, IT, and Finance buyers.
    • Navigate procurement and negotiate contracts confidently.

    Operate as an AI-First Seller

    • Leverage AI tools and Cascade's internal agents to increase productivity and improve deal quality.
    • Use automation and structured workflows to manage pipeline efficiently.
    • Contribute ideas to improve how the sales team uses AI to win.

    Collaborate & Improve the Motion

    • Partner with Marketing to optimize messaging and campaigns.
    • Share field insights to sharpen positioning and competitive strategy.
    • Help define what a repeatable mid-market playbook looks like at Cascade.

    About You

    • 3–5+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience (AI, HR Tech, IT, or workflow platforms preferred).
    • Proven ability to generate your own pipeline, not just work inbound.
    • Comfortable converting MQLs into qualified meetings.
    • Experience running full-cycle sales independently.
    • Strong business acumen with the ability to build ROI-driven proposals.
    • Disciplined pipeline management and accurate forecasting.
    • Energized by startup environments and building from zero to one.
    • Curious and proactive about using AI tools to improve performance.

    Success Looks Like

    Within your first year, you:

    • Consistently hit or exceed quota through a mix of self-sourced and inbound-converted pipeline.
    • Maintain strong pipeline coverage (3–5x) with disciplined forecasting.
    • Close multiple mid-market deals.
    • Build a predictable outbound motion for mid-market accounts.
    • Improve sales productivity by effectively leveraging AI tools. xhmxlyz
