Senior Account Executive, EMEA
Hello from the Recruiting Team at Customer.io!
We’re looking for an experienced Senior Account Executive who is excited to join a company at an incredible inflection point. Customer.io recently crossed $100M in ARR, a milestone that reflects years of sustainable growth and an incredible customer base. As we look ahead, our focus is shifting from pure scale to intentional, quality growth — doubling down on the people, processes, and customer partnerships that got us here.
Our EMEA sales team has consistently exceeded quota, setting the standard for what great execution looks like at Customer.io. If you thrive in a high-performing, collaborative environment and want to be part of a team that’s truly raising the bar, we’d love to meet you.
This is a full-cycle sales role (prospect, demo, close). In addition to sourcing opportunities (with the support of a dedicated Sr. SDR), you’ll be fielding qualified inbound demand that comes through marketing activity.

Customer.io powers automated communication that people actually want to receive. We help teams send smarter, more relevant messages using real-time behavioral data.
Some things you’ll do…
- Take over qualified leads from our outbound and inbound sales teams; run discovery calls (qualifying through MEDDPICC) and full sale-cycle to close customers
- Work closely with a dedicated Sr. SDR, reviewing account targeting, sales strategy, and prospecting progress to assist in scheduling new meetings with key brands within our ICP
- Schedule and perform online demos with qualified prospects
- Uncover key business needs and problems, match Customer.io‘s solutions and features
- Own your key numbers! Report present and past sales, trends and costs, estimated and realized revenue, and administrative commitments for management
- Fill your pipeline through self-sourcing as needed in order to have an adequate path to quota attainment
- Explain and demonstrate the features and merits of our products and services through value-based selling
