Account Executive - Field Sales, New Verticals
About The Position
We are looking for an Account Executive - Field Sales to join our New Verticals team. This hybrid role combines primarily inside sales (about 70%) with targeted field-based selling (about 30%) to close high-priority deals. You’ll be responsible for identifying, pitching, and signing the best local and regional small- and mid-sized merchants (SMBs) onto DoorDash. In this position, you will manage the full sales cycle—from prospecting through close—within a fast-paced, transactional environment. Most of your day will be spent in an office or home-office setting making high-volume outreach, engaging prospects creatively, and driving deals forward. When needed, you’ll step into the field to meet merchants face-to-face, build relationships, and finalize partnerships. Some travel, including occasional overnights or flights, will be required. You will report to the Sales Manager for New Verticals and gain direct exposure to career development opportunities as the team continues to grow. We expect this role to remain flexible, with a mix of in-office and remote work. You should be comfortable traveling for in-person collaboration—such as trainings, team offsites, and closing meetings—as business needs arise.
