Account Executive
Luzern Risk is a fast-growing insurance technology startup focused on transforming risk into a strategic asset. We're revolutionizing the captive management industry by giving clients the technology and expertise to control their own risk financing. We are a passionate, driven team excited to solve hard problems and build an industry-defining company.
This is a high-impact, hands-on sales role for a true hunter. As a foundational Account Executive, your mission is to generate new business by building your own pipeline and closing complex deals with C-suite executives. We need a "go-getter" energized by building a book of business from the ground up. You will quarterback the sale, leveraging our expert team for technical depth while you drive the deal forward. This is a role for a results-driven seller who wants to directly impact a startup's growth and be generously rewarded for doing so.

- Expert Collaboration: Quarterback the deal team, partnering with our Risk Solutions group to design and present bespoke, data-driven solutions.
What We're Looking For
- A Tenacious Hunter: A relentless drive to find new opportunities and a proven ability to generate your own leads. Motivated by exceeding targets with a "get it done" mentality.
- Ownership & Urgency: A bias for action, deep accountability for results, and the initiative to drive the sales process forward.
- Intellectual Agility: A quick study who can rapidly learn complex concepts and confidently engage senior professionals.
