Here’s the problem: you can’t learn to ride a bike by watching someone else ride a bike. Yet this is how online learning has been built—watching someone else do something. It’s boring. It’s ineffective. And, employees everywhere are demanding more.

At Modal, we’re reimagining how people learn on the job. We’re on a mission to help companies develop the critical skills employees want and need through personally curated learning paths. We’re building hands-on and immersive experiences that employees love through a mastery platform to help employees learn critical technical skills via live cohorts and engaging, collaborative projects they actually like.

Modal enables organizations to grow the technical skills of employees in data science, web development, and other technical roles. Our online learning experience focuses on teaching practical, on-the-job skills and providing real learning outcomes for employees at scale. Join us as we build a better way to learn skills at work.

We know this market because we spent a decade building Udemy (NASDAQ:UDMY), the $4B leader in enterprise ed-tech. Our team is having all of the fun (and reward!) of building a new, early-stage company without the typical risk. We’ve built large organizations, know the market, have the financing, and a world-class Advisory Board lined up. We are bringing on our next Enterprise Account Executive to help scale our business.

Role Scope:

As Enterprise Account Executive you’ll help large organizations improve the tech skills (Data Science, Web development, etc.) of their employees. You’ll work with CLOs, Senior HR Leaders, and VPs of Data, who struggle with developing their technical talents (and therefore their product roadmaps). You’ll be responsible for selling to new customers and expanding relationships with existing customers. Customer Success managers will deliver the service after the sale.

Responsibilities:

Prospect and close new sales opportunities with Fortune 500 companies; your job is to evangelize a new way to learn with companies who have billions at stake in getting this right
Own all aspects of the sales cycle, including prospecting, qualifying opportunities, running trials, presenting proposals, and closing deals
Hit your targets
Build new customer and prospect relationships with CLOs and Heads of HR, VPs of Data and of Engineering
Build and manage your pipeline by cultivating inbound sales leads and generating new business opportunities via outbound activities
Prospect within existing customers to identify additional areas where Modal’s learning solution can solve customer problems
