About this role
Stripe's Product Sales team is building out its Tax offering to capture a $100B market opportunity in back office finance automation, and this role sits at the center of that expansion. As a Tax Account Executive, you'd own the full sales cycle for Stripe Tax—from prospecting and discovery through closing deals and driving expansion with both new and existing customers. You'd be expected to hit revenue targets while building deep expertise in global indirect tax requirements and articulating that value across technical teams, finance departments, and C-suite executives.
This role demands someone who can operate comfortably at multiple organizational levels and isn't intimidated by complex, technical sales conversations. You'll need at least eight years of technology sales experience with a track record of closing new business and expanding existing accounts. Experience selling financial services or tax solutions is preferred but not required; what matters more is your ability to become a genuine expert on the product, collaborate across product, marketing, and engineering teams to refine go-to-market strategy, and manage sophisticated negotiations involving custom commercial terms.
The position is based in Dublin and requires in-office presence. It's suited to someone who thrives as a self-starter, communicates clearly both verbally and in writing, and genuinely enjoys the problem-solving side of enterprise sales—not just the close.
