What are the responsibilities and job description for the Account Executive - SMB position at Steer?
Steer offers a suite of software tools for today's automotive repair shop. We combine a mix of software tools that a repair shop needs to run a highly profitable shop, in one user-friendly, cost-effective platform. Through the Steer CRM suite, we allow the shop owner to get back to focusing on what matters, and to stop worrying about marketing and customer retention.
Steer began as an online directory for drivers to find a local mechanic. Fast forward to today, Steer has launched a complete Customer Relationship Management (CRM) marketing suite, complete with text messaging, email automation, direct mail integration, reputation management, appointment reminders, declined/recommended services, and many other features. We are always innovating and we are proud to be a leader in the automotive repair industry. In August 2024 Steer acquired AutoOps - the leader in modern, intelligent, and fully integrated scheduling software for auto repair shops. AutoOps allows customers to smoothly schedule through a shop's website and Google Business Profile.
About the Role
As an Account Executive, you'll take the wheel in identifying high-value opportunities, leading compelling AutoOps product demos, and closing deals—often on the first call. We're looking for someone with the hunger to push past obstacles, the drive to exceed goals, and the mindset to continuously level up. Here, you'll refine your sales craft, accelerate your career, and be part of a high-performing team that values execution and result. If you're ready to fuel your success and drive growth at the market leader in auto tech, this is the role for you!
The role is hybrid in Waltham, MA and requires 2-3x onsite per week.
Compensation: $120,000 - $160,000 OTE ($60,000 base salary commission)
