⛵️ Account Executive

1. You're not afraid of hard work, but you're even more into smart work. You row with the oars you've got, and if they’re not strong enough, you'll just head into the woods and carve a better pair yourself.
2. Bonus points if your e-commerce experience goes beyond just filling your own shopping cart. You’ve definitely done sales before: maybe in a store, a call center, or - even better - at a SaaS company.
3. You understand that sales is more than a good story and a charming smile. You’ve got a solid read on people, you're curious about what makes customers tick, and you love figuring out what works (and what doesn't). You’re creative, persistent, and know how to sell a vision without being pushy.
4. You’re fluent in English and one other European language, both written and spoken. You communicate clearly and confidently.
5. And last but not least: you love to win. Whether it’s a clever campaign or a closed deal, that feeling of success is what drives you.

1. Aiden is a young software company based in Utrecht. Since November 2024, we’ve been part of the Shop Circle team - operating independently, with the perks of being in good company.
2. With a tight-knit group of talented and fun people, we’re building great software to improve the way e-commerce works for customers and businesess.
3. Our goal? To help shoppers find the right product or service more easily. We do that through our guided selling platform; a SaaS solution that helps online stores give great product advice.
4. We’re a small team, and we like it that way. Our clients love it too. And for our team, it means more ownership, more freedom, and getting more done.
5. We’re ambitious, but that doesn’t mean we’re an "always on" type of company. You’ll get the freedom and flexibility to do your best work, your way.

We're here to help you become a top-tier sales professional. Aiden is already the market leader in the Netherlands. You’ll help us grow our slice of the European pie.

You'll work closely with Marja (CEO), Simon (CCO), Bart (Sales Lead NL), and Francisco (Account Executive).

In your first year, you’ll focus on these four stages of the sales journey:

• ‍Step 1 – Prospecting
  You’ll learn our software and target audience inside out, then build your own hit list of online storesthat need to know about Aiden.‍

• ‍Step 2 – Booking Demos
  You’ll do your own outreach through email, LinkedIn, creative campaigns, or old-school cold calling. Whatever works. You’ll learn from us and develop your own style.‍

• Step 3 – Giving Demos
  Once you fully understand the product and your prospect’s challenges, you’ll start running your own demos. You’re the expert. You own your pipeline.

• ‍Step 4 – Closing Deals
  Not every client says yes right away. But with the right follow-up, timing, and a bit of flair, you’ll get even the doubters across the line. Because as we all know: customers who aren't sure, won't buy.

Want more? Great. The only limits on your growth path reyour ambition and results.

We’re not an IT consultancy, so we won't put you in a lease car. What we do offer — besides your salary and commission — is a great place to work, with a few perks the big guys often forget:

1. Hybrid working. Our office is in the heart of Utrecht, the Netherlands, and we’d love to see you there from time to time. But if you prefer working from home (or wherever you feel most productive), go for it. We are also open to remote applicants within Europe.
2. Real impact. We’re a small team. Whatever your role, you’ll have direct influence on how we work and grow.
3. Time off. You’ll get 25 vacation days.
4. New parent time! If you’re welcoming a child, you’ll get 2 extra weeks off on top of your statutory leave — and it doesn’t count against your vacation days.
5. Room to grow. Whether it’s learning, researching, or diving into a course: there’s always space to expand your knowledge, and plenty to share within the team.

1. Put together your CV and a short note on why you think you'd be a great fit.
2. Send it to careers@aiden.cx.
3. We'll let you know within a few days if we see a potential match.
