As a Territory Account Executive, Eastern Tennessee focused on small businesses (<100 employees), you’ll own the full sales cycle from prospecting to close. This is a high-velocity, high-activity role built for someone who loves the energy of short cycles, frequent wins, and a packed pipeline. You’ll be selling HCM and payroll solutions that make a real difference for small business owners, and you’ll do it with the backing of a team that genuinely wants you to win.
Our sales team thrives with larger, less crowded territories, uncapped earning potential, and the kind of support that turns deals into long-term relationships. All of this happens in a culture that feels personal, agile, and deeply committed.
If you like and have the track record to close fast, thrive in high-volume environments, and want a territory full of opportunity, we want to hear from you!

What We Are Looking For

Comfort managing a high volume of opportunities simultaneously without dropping the ball
Proficiency with CRM and sales engagement tools (e.g., Salesforce, HighSpot)
