Allied Strategy (Lincoln) -- Account Executive (Full-time Job)

Allied Strategy is a technology company improving insurance.

Why it's good to work here:

• You will be working at a venture backed tech company, founded by UNL students, growing massively in the last 8 months (after several years of development)
• You will work with smart, ethical people, who care about what they're doing, selling business professionals staggeringly helpful software.
• If you're as good as our current staff, more than half of the people you call will want a demo of our software, and nearly half of them will buy.
• You will not sell junk to people they don't need. You will be fixing a broken system (insurance needs our help!), and you will profit from it.
• You will experience action and adventure, from the safety of your PC workstation. (with travel only every now and then)

Things to know:

• Awesome natural skill can be a substitute for sales experience, but we'd really like to see strong B2B sales experience.
• We can't afford to fail -- we will only hire the right person. Period. No hard feelings.
• If you're a good fit, we will make an effort to hire your friends
