We’re a remote-first workforce with collaborative work spaces in San Francisco and Kitchener, Ontario, and employees in several U.S. states. If you’re interested in joining a dynamic, culture-driving company—where learning invaluable skills is all in a day’s work—we invite you to apply.

We are looking for more than what a resume can show. If you don’t have the exact experience or skills, but think you’d be a great addition to MasterClass, please apply for the role.

Snapshot of the Role

We’re seeking a entrepreneurial Account Executive to join our MasterClass at Work team, focused on SMB and mid-market accounts up to 2,500 employees. In this role, you’ll own the full sales cycle for a defined book of business — prospecting, running discovery, and closing new-logo and expansion deals with L&D, HR, and Talent Management buyers. This is a great fit for someone with a couple years of quota-bearing experience who is ready to run their own book of business, with mentorship from senior AEs as they build toward a full enterprise territory.

What you will do

• Entrepreneurally own and build a full sales motion from the ground up selling Masterclass products to Enterprise customers.
• Prospect, qualify, negotiate, and close deals independently, ultimately hitting committed sales targets.
• Build a sales plan that identifies which accounts, buyer personas, and verticals represent the biggest untapped revenue opportunity, and go after them.
• Experiment with and adopt AI tools (Claude, Apollo, Sales Navigator, Gong, Salesforce) to build a self-sourced pipeline, and help shape how the broader team uses AI in its sales process.
• Run consultative discovery calls that get at a prospect's real L&D and talent priorities, not a scripted demo.
• Pitch MasterClass at Work, MasterClass Certificates, and MasterClass Executive Programs to HR, L&D, and business stakeholders, adapting the pitch as you learn what resonates.
• Identify and pilot new revenue streams or go-to-market approaches, including new segments, new use cases, and new partnership angles, and bring what works back to the team.
• Partner with Customer Success on a smooth handoff, then drive land-and-expand growth within your own book.
• Forecast your pipeline accurately and hit quota, and flag what's working (or not) in the broader sales motion so it can be refined.
• Proactively surface expansion and renewal opportunities as your book matures.

About you

• 4-8 years of full-cycle, quota-bearing SaaS sales experience with a consistent history of meeting or exceeding targets.
• Demonstrated consultative selling skills — deal qualification, discovery frameworks, and pipeline management.
• High intrinsic motivation and an entrepreneurial mindset built for optimizing AI workflows
• This role is open to applicants based in the following locations: AZ, CA, CT, FL, GA, IL, MA, MI, NH, NJ, NY, NC, OH, PA, TN, TX, UT, WA or Ontario and British Columbia, Canada.
