The platform unifies communications and trade surveillance, compliant archiving, policy management as well as front-office analytics on a single, AI-native technology stack, delivered as a globally scalable SaaS-based cloud service. At Behavox, our engineering culture is built around speed, experimentation, and technical excellence, following agile principles and rapid iteration. We constantly test and adopt the latest cloud technologies and AI tooling, optimising for fast feedback loops and execution. We look for people who can move fast, challenge conventional wisdom, and who want to work at the frontier of modern AI, SaaS platforms, and distributed systems. Behavox is a high-performance organisation with a strong bias toward delivery, ownership, and responsibility. We commit, and we execute. We are building systems that are complex, mission-critical, and global in scale; systems that many consider too large or too difficult. To do that, we seek the smartest, most technically capable engineers and technologists who take end-to-end responsibility and want to win by building what others cannot. Founded in 2014 and backed by SoftBank Vision Fund, Behavox is headquartered in London, with offices worldwide, including New York City, Montreal, Seattle, Singapore, and Tokyo. ABOUT THE ROLE The Enterprise Account Executive is responsible for driving revenue growth within a named list of enterprise accounts aligned to one of Behavox’s core verticals: Banking and Capital Markets, Asset and Wealth Management, Private Equity, or Commodities.

The Account Executive is accountable for articulating and advancing a clear business value case by aligning customer strategic objectives, economic outcomes, and executive priorities to the commercial decision. The role also maintains disciplined sales execution through accurate pipeline management, forecasting, and activity hygiene in HubSpot. Following initial contract signature, the Account Executive retains commercial ownership of the account and partners with Customer Success to support adoption and execute value-driven expansion and renewal opportunities. WHAT YOU'LL BRING 1. Enterprise executive buying behavior – Knowledge of how senior business leaders in regulated financial institutions evaluate investments based on strategic alignment, economic impact, and business outcomes. 2.

Enterprise outbound prospecting and pipeline creation – Owns outbound pipeline generation within a named account list, with heavy reliance on direct AE-led prospecting activity, and in partnership with SDR and Marketing to engage both above-the-line business stakeholders and below-the-line functional buyers within the assigned vertical. 2. End-to-end enterprise deal ownership – Executes the full commercial sales process from initial engagement through negotiation and close on $200K+ opportunities with extended sales cycles. 3.

WHAT WE OFFER * The opportunity to work on a global, mission-critical AI platform alongside the best engineers and technologists across multiple geographies. * A role with real ownership and impact, building complex systems at scale in an environment that values speed, experimentation, and technical excellence. * A highly attractive benefits package, including competitive cash compensation, an equity award aligned with long-term value creation, and comprehensive health insurance for employees and their families. * Modern, comfortable offices in New York and Virginia. If you're based in either city, 2 days in office per week is required. Otherwise, travel as needed. * A generous time-off policy of 30 days annually, plus public holidays and sick leave, recognising the importance of sustained high performance. ABOUT OUR PROCESS We take Talent very seriously and we are building a community of extraordinary individuals working together in very high performing teams. We also know that the best Talent always has options so we believe that the process has to be a two way assessment - the company AND the candidate assessing the business needs alignment, the career next step alignment, and the cultural alignment. During the process we will begin by exploring the core factors regarding salary and location along with core experience and skills and values alignment. We will then deep dive explore the critical technical competencies we have identified for the role, and then we will deep dive in behavioral competencies. The most aligned candidate will then be asked to do a practical work task simulation activity so we can make sure that you will enjoy the kind of work the role requires, and this task will typically be presented and discussed with a group of colleagues and managers. Finally we will ask you to meet with a number of our senior leaders to make sure that you are making the most informed call possible. PLEASE NOTE THAT: * We want to get to know you and have a genuine conversation, so the use of AI tools or assistance during live interviews is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate disqualification from the process * Interviews may be recorded for internal review purposes to ensure fairness and enable collaborative hiring discussions within the team.

We’re dedicated to empowering this transformation by building the tools and experiences that thousands of developers use to create their own products.

Our New Business team at Plaid combines deep product and industry knowledge and is focused on bringing Plaid to an ever-broadening set of businesses. Our thesis is that every institution in the banking and wealth management ecosystem can benefit from better financial technology, and that many traditional financial firms that don't currently consider themselves to be fintech actually need to operate like one to win. You'll be the one helping us achieve this vision. As a New Business Representative for our Banking & Wealth (B&W) segment, you'll forge the path to finding new clients and prospecting traditional banks, credit unions, wealth-tech platforms, and digital brokerages for us to target. We are looking for extraordinary sales professionals with SaaS/tech and/or outbound selling experience who can demonstrate the added value of Plaid and what impact it can have on modernizing the banking and investment experience. In this role, you will be responsible for organizational mapping, prospecting individuals, driving engagement, setting opportunities for AEs, taking qualification calls, and nurturing early opportunities. The ideal candidate is customer-centric, resilient, challenges the status quo, and has a deep interest in advancing their career in fintech sales. RESPONSIBILITIES * Acting as a key member of the Plaid GTM Team, supporting several Account Executives hunting new business within the Banking & Wealth verticals. * Liaising with Marketing to provide feedback on B&W-specific campaigns and designing new outbound efforts. * Identifying prospects and building pipelines through outbound campaigns targeted at decision-makers in digital banking, wealth management, and brokerage operations. * Helping new clients get started with Plaid and answering questions about our products, specifically around account funding, investment data, and open banking connectivity. * Identifying the most promising sub-verticals (e.g., credit unions, RIA platforms, digital brokerages) to help drive increased revenue opportunity. QUALIFICATIONS * 1-3 years of experience in pipeline development and/or sales (preferably at a SaaS or Fintech company). * Leading high-level conversations with banking and wealth management stakeholders. * The ability to evangelize Plaid’s value proposition in order to assess buying interest from traditional and modern financial institutions alike. * The ability to thrive in a high customer volume, time-sensitive environment. * Having a relentless mindset and unwillingness to quit. * Proficiency in using Salesforce.com or other CRM. * Experience working with customers and explaining technical products. Strong interest in the financial services industry, market trends, and technical products; a high degree of intellectual curiosity. * Excitement to work in a high-growth environment and to help build processes and tools as needed. * Desire to get (more) technical and the ability to learn the ins and outs of Plaid's APIs (specifically our Investments, Auth, and Identity products). Our mission at Plaid is to unlock financial freedom for everyone. To support that mission, we seek to build a diverse team of driven individuals who care deeply about making the financial ecosystem more equitable.
