About this role

Navan is building an all-in-one travel, corporate card, and expense management platform used by thousands of companies globally, and this Commercial Account Executive role sits at the center of their sales efforts in Boston. You'd own the full sales cycle—from prospecting and cold-calling through demos, negotiations, and close—targeting C-level executives at small to mid-market companies. The expectation is to close 1-2 deals per month, manage your pipeline in Salesforce, hit monthly revenue targets, and maintain relationships post-sale to ensure successful implementation.

This role demands someone with at least two years of closing experience, ideally in SaaS, who is comfortable with outbound prospecting and can articulate a value-based sales pitch. You'll need to multi-thread across departments to build business cases and navigate to budget approval. The job rewards self-starters with a track record of hitting targets and the agility to learn and adapt. Prior exposure to sales methodologies like MEDDPIC or Challenger Sales is valued but not required.

The position is full-time, in-office in Boston, with a salary range of $135,000 to $180,000 plus target incentive compensation. Success here hinges on your ability to prospect strategically, build executive relationships, and execute a repeatable sales process while collaborating closely with marketing, sales development, and account management teams.
