Senior Account Executive

Role Description

As a Senior Account Executive, you will play a key role in helping customers achieve better business outcomes with Dropbox’s full suite of products. You’ll build trusted relationships with both existing and prospective customers, develop a deep understanding of their priorities, and connect them with Dropbox solutions that improve how their teams organize, collaborate, share, and secure their work.

This role combines strategic account management with strong sales execution. You’ll partner closely with customers and internal teams to develop account strategies, demonstrate the value of Dropbox’s integrated product portfolio, and deliver solutions that support customers’ evolving needs.

This is an opportunity to help customers get more value from Dropbox while directly contributing to the company’s growth and long-term customer relationships.

Responsibilities

  • Own the full sales cycle from pipeline generation through close and renewal within your territory
  • Build pipeline from scratch by prospecting into new teams, departments, and executive stakeholders
  • Expand beyond existing motions to uncover new use cases and opportunities
  • Consistently generate pipeline through outbound efforts, account mapping, events, and partner collaboration
  • Forecast accurately and manage pipeline to consistently meet or exceed revenue targets
  • Lead strong discovery to uncover customer challenges, priorities, and desired outcomes
  • Apply structured qualification and value-selling frameworks (e.g., MEDDICC, SPICED) to advance deals
  • Clearly articulate business impact and position Dropbox solutions around outcomes, not features
  • Drive deal momentum by building urgency, aligning stakeholders, and establishing clear next steps
  • Contribute to evolving GTM strategy by refining ICP, messaging, and use cases (e.g., Dash)
  • Collaborate cross-functionally and bring insights from the field to influence Product and GTM

Requirements

  • 6+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience, ideally including time in early-stage, new product, or evolving GTM environments
  • Proven ability to generate pipeline and close deals in ambiguous or evolving markets
  • Strong experience with qualification frameworks such as MEDDICC, SPICED, or similar
  • Demonstrated use of value selling methodologies such as Command of the Message or equivalent
  • Experience selling to mid-market and enterprise customers, including executive stakeholders
  • Consistent track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets
  • High ownership mentality - you take initiative and move things forward without waiting for direction
  • Thrive in ambiguity and are comfortable operating without a fully defined playbook
  • Curious and business-oriented, with the ability to connect customer problems to solutions
  • Resourceful and adaptable - you figure things out and adjust quickly
  • Strong collaborator who contributes positively to team culture
  • Experience using Salesforce or similar CRM tools to manage pipeline and forecast
  • Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple complex deals

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience selling a new or emerging product within an existing portfolio
  • Experience working in high-change or transformation environments
  • BA/BS degree or equivalent experience
  • General familiarity with AI or productivity tools
