Motion is creating the command center for creative strategists: an AI-driven analytics and intelligence platform that bridges the gap between performance marketers and creative teams, helping them uncover what's working, what's not, and ultimately ship more winning ads across platforms like YouTube, LinkedIn, Meta, and TikTok.
Today, Motion is trusted by some of the world’s top e-commerce and direct-to-consumer brands and agencies (including Vuori, True Classic, The Farmer’s Dog, and HexClad) and has analyzed over $14 billion in media spend. When leading brands want to understand their creative performance, they turn to us.
We're growing fast (3x year-over-year), our product is sticky, and with a recent $30M Series B raise, we're just getting started. We doubled our customers as well as our headcount in 2024, and we now have 70 team members. We're building the future of creative intelligence and are looking for talented people to help us get there! 🚀
About the team & our attitude 🤝
Our Mid-Market Account Executives are dawgs. They collaborate well, are bought into Motion’s mission, and are flexible to what the day-to-day might look like depending on the goal. They lead by example (eg. helping coach SMB Account Executives) and strive to reach their potential as quickly as possible.
About the Account Executive role 🔍
- You will be directly responsible for driving net new and expansion revenue for our mid-market segment
- You may be heavily involved in the account management process where you will ensure client happiness and own a churn number
- We may introduce outbound at some point, so you will be a leader in implementing yourself and across the team
- Approach clients like future partners to be collaborated with, not leads to be closed. Yes, we want to sell more, however we’ve found that a collaborative sales process ensures long term success and we’ll support you going over and above to ensure your client needs are met
- Advise prospects on how to implement an effective Performance Creative process using Motion
Our customers are already feeling the pain, and this problem is a top priority for them. Using a consultative selling approach, you will help teams see how the Motion platform is the answer to the workflow challenges they are experiencing.
Be prepared to explore a new approach to sales!
