About the Role:

As a Strategic Account Executive, you will own the full sales cycle for Zūm's SaaS offerings, providing self-operated districts AI-driven routing, real-time vehicle and student visibility, and tools that improve on-time performance and communication with parents and students. You will build trusted relationships with transportation directors, superintendents, and district technology teams, guiding them through complex, multi-stakeholder, public-sector buying processes. This role reports to our Vice President of SaaS Sales.

What You'll Do:

  • Own your territory from first conversation to signed contract, and build account plans that map each key district's decision-makers, influencers, budget calendar and procurement path
  • Effectively prospect, develop, and close new districts, consistently meeting or exceeding quarterly and annual quota
  • Run discovery and tailored demos of Zūm CMX that connect real-time visibility, AI-driven routing, and fleet efficiency to each district's goals for on-time performance, attendance, trust from parents and students, and cost savings
  • Maintain a healthy, well-documented pipeline, and accurate forecast in our CRM
  • Use in-depth knowledge of industry trends to consult and support prospective customers, and share customer and competitive insights across Sales, Marketing, Product, and Legal teams
  • Respond to and shape RFPs, RFQs, and proposals, partnering with Product, Solutions, Legal, and Finance to craft pricing and contract structures that win
  • Represent Zūm at national and state education and transportation conferences, building a strong reference network in your territory

What You Bring To Zūm:

  • 5+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience, ideally as a strategic or enterprise Account Executive, with a track record of closing six-figure and multi-year deals and consistently meeting quota
  • Direct experience selling technology or services to K-12 school districts or other public-sector buyers, including familiarity with RFPs, cooperative purchasing, and board approvals; school transportation experience a plus
  • Proven ability to run complex sales cycles with multiple stakeholders, from superintendents and CFOs to operations and IT leaders
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly in consultative selling, presentation, and negotiation, and strong analytical and creative problem solving abilities
  • Ability to hold your own in meetings with both senior officials and day-to-day operators and speak as a thought leader in the transportation space
  • Entrepreneurial self-starter who is comfortable with travel within the territory, motivated by the mission of improving students' daily journey to school, and excited to work in a fast-growing, quickly changing environment

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
