We are growing quickly here at 12twenty and it's our priority to hire A+ players to join us on our mission of rapid expansion and world domination! We are looking for a highly-motivated, all star Account Executive to grow our partnerships in the university space. Your role will be to grow and maintain relationships with our prospects, evangelize the 12twenty platform, and close new business to grow our leading presence in the industry.

Sales is not a job for everyone...if you hate conferences, conducting virtual (or in person) demonstrations, drafting engaging emails, and just generally speaking with humans, this isn't the role for you. 😬  You'll be interacting with individuals ranging from Administrators to Deans and University Provosts, so the role requires a blend of charm and sophistication, with excellent written and verbal communication skills. If you have a track record of exceeding your quotas, you’re a self-starter with a team player attitude, and you’re excited to invest in a company that will invest in you, we want to hear from you. We truly love what we’re building and we love who we’re building with.

We are happy to admit that here at 12twenty, we have a strict "no jerks" policy. You will be surrounded with like-minded, passionate, and intelligent team members that are dedicated to the mission and everyone that is a part of it. We believe in being in the trenches together and having each others' backs. Additionally, there is endless opportunity. Let's build and succeed together.
