Account Executive

We are working with an early-stage AI company that’s building a platform for the UK lettings and estate agency market. They’re looking to hire their first dedicated SME Account Executive – someone who wants to build, rather than inherit, a sales function.

This isn’t a typical AE role. You’ll work directly with the founder, own the entire sales cycle, help shape the go-to-market strategy, and have genuine influence over how the business scales. ‘Equity’ in the business also forms part of the package.

The ideal background is someone in PropTech (who has sold into estate/letting agencies) or vertical SaaS into SMEs, enjoys opening new markets, and is excited by the challenge of joining a business at an early stage rather than a well-established scale-up.

Salary up to £50,000 base + 80% OTE + ‘equity’ in the business (50% of the base) + private healthcare. There may be a little flexibility for an exceptional candidate.

LightWork USPs:

• Founded by 2 people with a hedge fund background, one ran and exited his own hedge fund
• Current enterprise client on trial, if converts likely to double their company headcount. 30 other agencies also signed up.
• Funded by angel investors and one of the largest european family offices (as largest venture)
• Team of 30 employees currently, with 20 based in London, with a high bar for talent – experience across investment banking, big law, oxbridge engineers, former founders.
