As an Account Executive, you'll be the primary connection between GitLab and customers based in Greece selling into organizations of up to 2,000 team members to help them adopt and expand the world's most comprehensive AI-powered DevSecOps platform. You'll own a broad book of business across a wide range of opportunity sizes, guiding small, fast-growing teams as well as more complex projects as they modernize their software delivery with GitLab. You'll report to a Regional Sales Director and partner closely with business development, marketing, and technical teams. You'll run the full sales process: shape the customer's journey, document buying criteria and processes, keep the pipeline accurate and evidence-based, and share root-cause insights on wins and losses. In your first year, you'll focus on building trusted relationships, delivering meaningful business outcomes for customers, and being the voice of the customer internally by contributing ideas to our public issue tracker and improving our sales handbook.

What you’ll do
  • Report to a Regional Sales Director and own a broad book of businesses, from new prospects to growing existing accounts across Greece
  • Manage the full sales cycle for prospects, from discovery and solution alignment through negotiation and close.
  • Support prospects by clearly articulating GitLab's DevSecOps value proposition and aligning it to customer business outcomes.
  • Analyze wins and losses, contribute to root cause analyses, and share lessons learned with account managers, marketing, and technical teams.
  • Document and maintain accurate buying criteria, buying processes, next steps, and owners to ensure a reliable, evidence-based pipeline.
  • Contribute to improving our sales handbook and processes by documenting best practices and opportunities for refinement.
  • Provide account leadership and direction across pre- and post-sales, partnering closely with technical teams and customer success.
  • Represent the voice of the customer by contributing product feedback and ideas to our public issue tracker.
What you’ll bring
  • Proven success in software sales, ideally in a mid-market or enterprise context, managing a varied book of business.
  • Ability to guide customers through the full buying journey, including defining buying criteria, mapping buying processes, and driving clear next steps.
  • Effective communication and interpersonal skills to collaborate with business development, marketing, technical teams, and sales management.
  • Experience documenting and maintaining accurate pipeline data and account plans based on evidence rather than assumptions.
  • Skill in conducting and contributing to win/loss and root cause analyses, and sharing insights to improve team performance and processes.
  • Proficiency in negotiation, presenting to customer stakeholders, and leading commercial discussions to close opportunities.
  • Interest in GitLab, open source software, and preferably familiarity with Git, software development tools, or application lifecycle management.
  • Alignment with GitLab's values, an interest in contributing from diverse or transferable sales backgrounds, and willingness to travel in line with company policy.
About the team

The sales team works with growing organizations across their software delivery lifecycle as they modernize how they deliver software with GitLab. You'll join a distributed group of account executives, sales managers, and business development team members who collaborate asynchronously across regions. As a team, we run an efficient, transparent sales process and share what works in our sales handbook. We focus on opportunities like supporting customers through toolchain consolidation and driving platform adoption, and we continually refine how we sell and support GitLab based on what we learn.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
