Account Executive

Certus is a leading provider of workforce training and compliance solutions, helping companies across North America build safer, more capable teams. Through our family of specialized brands — including TPC Training, a Certus company — we deliver expert-led instruction across industrial, technical, safety, and regulatory disciplines.

We're expanding our sales team and looking for a seasoned Account Executive who knows how to open doors, build trust with senior stakeholders, and close complex B2B deals. If you thrive in a consultative selling environment and want to make a real impact at a growing company — we want to hear from you.

•         Identify and prioritize target corporate accounts through research, cold outreach, and networking.

•         Proactively generate new business opportunities to maintain a healthy, active sales funnel.

•         Work with Open Seminar customers to grow relationships and secure block purchases.

•         Develop a deep understanding of each client's business, industry, and challenges — then position Certus solutions that genuinely help.

•         Deliver compelling product demonstrations and value proposition presentations to decision-makers, including senior leadership.

•         Identify opportunities to cross-sell additional Certus products to expand client relationships.

•         Own the full sales cycle from first contact to signed contract.

•         Keep CRM records (Salesforce) accurate and up to date with notes, activity, and pipeline status.

•         Provide accurate sales forecasts and contribute to team planning.

•         Conduct client meetings and product demos via online meeting platforms.

You bring a track record of B2B sales success and the instincts to navigate complex, multi-stakeholder deals:

•         3+ years of B2B sales experience, ideally in corporate training, SaaS, or professional services.

•         Demonstrated ability to consistently meet or exceed quota in a full-cycle sales role.

•         Skilled at engaging and influencing executive-level decision-makers and multiple buying constituencies.

•         A consultative seller — you lead with insight, build trust, and position solutions around client outcomes.

•         Strong pipeline discipline: you forecast accurately, move deals forward, and keep your CRM airtight.

•         Excellent communication skills — you're as comfortable presenting to a VP as you are writing a follow-up email.

•         Proficiency with Salesforce and Microsoft Office; experience with virtual selling platforms a plus.

In this role, you'll be measured on outcomes that matter:

1.      Meet and exceed monthly and quarterly revenue quotas.

2.      Maintain a pipeline that's healthy in both volume and quality.

3.      Become a trusted resource for clients by deeply understanding Certus's products and how they create real value.

•         Be part of a mission-driven company that genuinely improves workforce safety and capability.

•         Join a high-performing sales team with a clear growth path and strong leadership support.

•         Sell a product you can believe in — training solutions with a proven track record.

•         Competitive compensation with performance-based earning potential.

This is a fully remote position with a strong preference for candidates in the eastern or central time zone.

Base pay will be between $50,000 - $55,000 and monthly commissions will be around $2,500/month.
