What are the responsibilities and job description for the Account Executive position at Hudl?
Your Role
We’re looking for an Account Executive to support market development of net new or acquisition revenue, and expand current accounts. This role will be concentrated on U.S. and Canadian clubs and high schools. Sales will take place in online demos, over the phone, and you'll travel frequently to your territory to thrive on the front lines (one of our company values) with prospects.
To succeed, you’ll:
- Own a sales cycle. You’ll collaborate with athletic directors, club directors, and coaches to ensure their schools and clubs have what they need to develop and improve
- Close sales on the phone and through online demos. We believe the more calls and demos you make, the more sales you make.
- Knowledgeable about sports. Being an athlete, coach or administrator in club or high school sports isn’t necessary but would help you connect with our user base.
At Hudl, we pair Account Executives (who focus on growing acquisition revenue) with Customer Success Managers (who focus on engagement, implementation and renewal revenue). This helps us ensure we're growing across all sports, product verticals and locations, in addition to supporting customers' journeys with Hudl.
This role requires three days in our Lincoln, NE headquarters per week, so we're only considering candidates who live within commuting distance Lincoln, NE at this time

Our Role
- Champion work-life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time, company-wide holidays and timeout (meeting-free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
