Account Executive - North Eastern USA

Storyblok

1d • $98,000 - $142,000 • Remote

About The Position

Storyblok is a headless CMS that enables marketers and developers to create with joy and publish with confidence. It empowers you to deliver structured and consistent content everywhere: websites, apps, AI search, and beyond. Legendary brands like Virgin Media O2, Oatly, and TomTom use Storyblok to make a bigger, faster market impact.

As an Account Executive, you'll be on the front line of Storyblok's US expansion — owning your territory end to end and closing new Enterprise business. This is a true hunting role: you'll self-generate a significant share of your own pipeline, going directly after the accounts you believe in, while partnering closely with our BDR team to multiply your reach. You'll be selling a category-leading headless CMS into a market that's actively rethinking how it builds for the web, with the autonomy to shape how we win in your patch.
