About You

KorTerra is looking for a motivated, results-oriented National Account Executive to join our growing Sales team. This role is built for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is energized by solving meaningful problems for clients. You bring genuine curiosity to every client conversation. You listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and go beyond the surface to understand how prospects and clients actually operate today. You are skilled at uncovering efficiencies, risks, and opportunities that most salespeople miss.

Through structured discovery, you connect symptoms to root causes. You help prospects quantify the impact of their current processes and see the path to measurable improvement. You are comfortable asking challenging questions that prompt new ways of thinking. You do not just sell. You diagnose, teach, and partner with clients to help them get to a better place. You bring a consultative mindset and a strong desire to keep improving your craft.

At KorTerra, we invest in your development through proven methodologies, including Neil Rackham's SPIN Selling framework and concepts from The Challenger Sale. You will be equipped to master Situation, Problem, Implication, and Need-Payoff questioning, and to become a commercial teacher who brings insight and perspective to every interaction.
