Job description
Imagine a world where every interaction feels effortless. At CM.com, we’re making that vision a reality by placing AI at the core of everything we do.
The world has never innovated as quickly as it is today, and CM.com is at the forefront of innovation again. From the SMS or WhatsApp messages you receive to the tickets you grab for your favorite festival or the chatbot that helps you solve a problem—our solutions are transforming the way businesses and people connect.
All our services are integrated into our unique business structure, which consists of four Business Units: Connect, Pay, Live & Engage.
Now, we’re looking for an experienced Account Executive to join our Connect Business Unit. As the market shifts from traditional SMS-based communication to richer, multi-channel customer interactions, we need someone who can drive business growth by acquiring new clients and partners, while seizing opportunities in an evolving landscape.
What you will do
Our Connect platform (CPaaS) enables over 4000 Dutch clients to engage with their customers across multiple communication channels such as SMS, WhatsApp (for Business), Google Business Messaging, Voice, Email, RCS, and social media platforms. With customer expectations growing beyond simple SMS to rich, conversational messaging, we offer solutions that help businesses meet these new demands.
As a Account Executive, you will play an important role in expanding our presence in the Dutch market. You will:
Drive new business development;
Explore opportunities with potential partners and create long-term business relationships.
Help clients transition from one-way communication (SMS) to interactive, multi-channel conversations by integrating newer communication methods like WhatsApp and Google Business Messaging.
Work closely with key decision-makers, such as C-level executives, as well as Technology, Security, and Marketing managers, to propose and implement tailored solutions.
Act as a bridge-builder within CM.com, you’re always looking for opportunities to cross-sell complementary CM.com solutions (f.e. Halo, Marketing & Service software, Payments or Ticketing solutions).
The communication market is evolving rapidly. Other challenges you might face include identifying opportunities to introduce new interaction channels such as Google Business Messaging, Instagram, Facebook, Voice and other. Besides that, you will become a key playing in maintaining CM.com’s competitive edge, bringing in new clients and converting those using competitor platforms.
You’ll join a dynamic sales team of about 10 colleagues, working collaboratively to acquire new clients, partners and system integrators and grow existing accounts in sectors like Tech & Media, Logistics, Finance, Telco, Utilities, and Government. You'll report directly to Sven van Gurp, Sales Manager for Connect.
