The Team You’ll Work With
This role is on the SMB sales team within the Private Corporations business unit. You will join a team of account executives to sell to our early-stage companies, typically Series A and earlier.
The Problems You’ll Solve
The SMB segment has grown tremendously over the last 12 months. We must continue winning early-stage companies and making them lifelong customers. To do so we need to capture companies at their incorporation and support them as their cap table needs change and their compliance requirements become more complex.
Some of the problems you’ll help us solve are:
- Develop a comprehensive sales strategy and sales plan that ensures consistent achievement of quota attainment
- Drive revenue through strategic outbound prospecting
- Understand customer needs and requirements and surface those findings back to Carta

As an Account Executive at Carta, you’ll introduce early-stage companies and venture-backed founders to our best-in-class software platform to help them streamline their equity management, stay compliant, and unlock liquidity in the private markets.
