About Crosschq / BrilliantCrosschq is building the Hiring Intelligence platform that helps companies dramatically improve Quality of Hire.
More than 300 companies including ADT, AAA, Salesforce, HubSpot and Marriott use Crosschq to measure, predict and improve hiring outcomes.
We are now entering the next phase of our journey as we introduce Brilliant, an AI-first hiring platform powered by outcome-trained foundation models. Our platform includes:
• AI Interviewer
• AI Applicant Screening & Fraud Detection
• Personality & Cognitive Assessments (Traitify)
• Automated Reference Checks
• Hiring Intelligence & Quality of Hire Analytics
These capabilities integrate directly into the systems companies already use to hire, including Workday, Oracle Cloud, SAP SuccessFactors, and Paradox, allowing organizations to automate workflows and improve hiring outcomes across the entire candidate lifecycle.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a driven and consultative Enterprise Account Executive to join our growing sales organization. In this role, you will own the full sales cycle for enterprise accounts — from first discovery through close — selling Crosschq's Hiring Intelligence platform to CHROs, VPs of Talent Acquisition, and senior People leaders at large organizations.
This is a high-impact, high-visibility role at a company that is defining the Quality of Hire category. You will work closely with Sales Development, Marketing, Solutions Engineering, and Customer Success to drive new logo acquisition and expand strategic accounts.
What You'll Do
New Business & Pipeline Development
- Own and manage a territory of enterprise target accounts (1,000+ employees), running a full sales cycle from prospecting through contract execution
- Work with HCM Partner organizations (Workday, Paradox, SAP) to create co-selling opportunities
- Partner with SDRs and Marketing to build and execute targeted account-based selling motions into HR and Talent Acquisition leadership
- Develop multi-threaded relationships within complex organizations, engaging CHRO, VP TA, HR Ops, and IT/Procurement stakeholders
- Accurately forecast pipeline and close rates in Salesforce, maintaining rigorous CRM hygiene
Solution Selling & Value Creation
- Lead compelling discovery conversations to uncover enterprise clients' Quality of Hire challenges, hiring analytics gaps, and workforce planning needs
- Collaborate with Solutions Engineering to design tailored demos and POCs that map Crosschq's platform capabilities to each buyer's specific use cases
- Craft ROI-oriented business cases that quantify the value of Hiring Intelligence improvements — including reduced time-to-hire, lower mis-hire costs, and better new hire retention
- Navigate complex procurement cycles involving legal, security, and IT review with confidence
Strategic Account Growth
- Identify expansion opportunities within existing accounts, partnering with Customer Success to drive upsell and cross-sell across Crosschq's full product suite
- Serve as a strategic advisor to clients, sharing Crosschq's point of view on Quality of Hire best practices and the future of talent analytics
- Represent Crosschq at industry events, HR technology conferences, and customer roundtables
What We're Looking For
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of enterprise SaaS sales experience with demonstrated success closing six-figure ACV deals in complex, multi-stakeholder environments
- Proven track record of consistently meeting or exceeding annual quota ($1M+ ARR)
- Experience selling into HR, Talent Acquisition, or HCM buyers; familiarity with the HR tech ecosystem (ATS, HCM, recruiting analytics) strongly preferred
- Strong command of consultative and solution-selling methodologies (MEDDPPIC, Challenger, or similar)
- Excellent executive presence and communication skills — comfortable presenting alone to C-suite and VP-level audiences
- Proficiency with Salesforce CRM and modern sales engagement tools (Outreach, Gong, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, etc.)
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience selling to HR and talent leadership at Fortune 1000 or enterprise-scale organizations
- Experience selling Human Capital Management and/or ERP platforms
- History of building a territory from scratch or in a high-growth, category-defining startup
What Makes You Successful Here
- You are genuinely curious about how AI and data can transform the way organizations hire and develop people
- You thrive in a fast-moving environment and are energized by building — processes, relationships, and pipeline — rather than managing steady state
- You lead with insight and bring a point of view to every conversation, not just a product pitch
- You are a team player who invests in the success of SDRs, SEs, and CSMs around you, knowing that enterprise sales is a team sport
- You hold yourself accountable to outcomes and communicate proactively — wins, losses, and lessons learned
- You are motivated by success - both for your customer and in your role
