## About the role

Dex is Headout's AI-powered travel companion that transforms how visitors experience the world's most iconic venues. It's a new kind of product in a market that doesn't have a playbook yet, and we're looking for a Strategic Account Executive in New York to take it to market and own net-new revenue from day one.

## What they're looking for

- You bring structure to ambiguity. You think strategically, prioritize well under competing demands, and bring clarity to situations where the path isn't defined
- You collaborate across functions. You work well with product, operations, marketing, and leadership teams to execute sales initiatives end-to-end
- Good to have: experience selling into governments, universities, public institutions, or non-profits
- You need an established playbook. There's no inbound engine, no battle-tested pitch deck, and no predecessor to learn from. If you do your best work inside a mature team, this role might not be the right fit
- You prefer to sell into existing demand. Buyers don't know they need Dex yet. If educating the market and helping create a category doesn’t excite you, this probably isn’t the role for you
- You want a narrowly-scoped closing role. You'll prospect, pitch, negotiate, close, and manage accounts, all of it
