The Role

Synthesia is hiring Strategic Account Executives to land and expand some of the world’s most recognizable brands (20k+ employees).

  • Build and execute strategic account plans that map org structure, buying committees, and whitespace across business units, with clear owners, milestones, and executive sponsors.

  • Partner closely with Customer Success to drive adoption, secure renewals, and uncover expansion so every landed deal keeps growing.

We’d love to hear from you if you have
  • A track record of landing and expanding high-value B2B SaaS logos, with quotas of $1M+ and a history of closing six-figure deals.

  • Proven success prospecting into new accounts and delivering value-based product demonstrations.

  • The ability to uncover client pain points and craft differentiated value propositions that make the ROI undeniable.

  • Experience selling in a rigorous, value-driven environment using a methodology like MEDDPICC.

  • Strong business acumen, with examples of building business value and champions inside complex, global organizations.

  • Strong written and spoken communication in English.

We’d be particularly excited if
  • You have experience with video SaaS

  • You bring experience and/or interest in AI

  • You thrive in a fast paced, dynamic environment!

Compensation

We offer a competitive salary, equity and benefits. Your offer will reflect your experience, skills and the scope of the role. The range for this position is $300,000-$340,000 OTE (50/50 split) and we are open to discussing where you land within it, or beyond it, for exceptional experience.
