Strategic Account Executive, AI Solutions | Nexus Black
About The Position
This is not a traditional sales role. As a Senior Account Executive within the Nexus Black team, you are a strategic operator, a trusted advisor, and a transformation partner to the C-suite. You will lead engagements that shape the future of AI in enterprise environments and consistently close $1M+ ACV deals. You will own the full qualification cycle, from identifying pain and metrics to navigating decision processes and competitive dynamics. You will drive incremental revenue by engaging strategic accounts with insight-led, value-based discovery. You will lead executive-level conversations that challenge conventional thinking and position IFS AI as a lever for transformation. You will build champions and align with economic buyers to drive multi-million dollar outcomes. You will collaborate and partner across a world-class GTM model with field teams, industry experts, and solution architects. At IFS, we’re not just selling software—we’re driving transformation. Our AI business is in hyper-growth, backed by an organization that’s challenging industry norms and disrupting the status quo. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to sell market-defining solutions with clear competitive differentiation, work with top-tier enterprises solving real-world challenges, be part of a company scaling through organic growth and acquisitions, work with other A-players matching your talent and ambitions, and operate at the Nexus Black level, where elite business professionals drive strategic transformation and close multi-million deals. This is more than just a sales role—we're offering you the opportunity to lead the AI revolution with IFS.
