About the role
The Account Executive is the person a family talks to when they're deciding whether Athlete to Athlete is the right investment for their athlete. You'll own the bottom of the funnel: taking Program Planning Calls booked by our SDR team, working our highest-intent inbound leads directly, and guiding parents and athletes to the right mentorship program, ultimately closing deals on the call.

What they're looking for
- We care far more about attitude, work ethic, and coachability than years of experience. The ideal candidate wants to build a long-term career in sales and is ready to be the one who closes
- 2+ years in a quota-carrying sales role (SDR, BDR, inside sales, or closing role), or a demonstrated track record of competing and winning
- Excellent written and verbal communication — you can explain something complex to a busy parent in two minutes
- Comfortable running a high volume of consultative phone conversations every day and asking for the sale
- Strong organization, attention to detail, and follow-through
- Comfortable with CRM systems and sales technology
More about this role
Athlete to Athlete pairs youth athletes with current Division 1 college athletes who play their sport and have already walked the road they're on. Our mentors don't just run drills — they help young athletes build confidence, find their path, and take real ownership of their game.
Our mission is to unlock every athlete's potential by connecting them with those who've lived it. Our vision is a world where every athlete rises and lifts the next.
We're a venture-backed, fast-growing sports technology company based in Santa Monica, and we run the way we coach: human-first, tech-forward, and built on the same values we ask of our athletes — Meaningful Connections, Coachability, Teamwork, and Resilience.
