Job Description

North America Acquisition

Why This Role Matters

Focused outbound motion: You’ll prospect into defined target accounts and industries where Accruent has a clear right to win, rather than working a generic or unfocused territory.

Enterprise exposure: You’ll engage with business, operations, facilities, real estate, IT, finance, and executive stakeholders across complex organizations.

Strong internal partnership: You’ll work alongside Account Executives, Marketing, Solutions Engineering, and Sales Leadership to create and convert pipeline.

Career development: You’ll receive coaching, call review, account strategy support, and exposure to the skills required to grow into senior BDR, AE, or other commercial roles.

Win Zone flexibility: Experience in any relevant Win Zone or target vertical is welcome. We value candidates who can learn industries, understand business problems, and tailor outreach to the right buyer context.
