Coast is reimagining the U.S. B2B card payments infrastructure, focusing on the country's 500,000 commercial fleets and 40 million commercial vehicles. The company delivers modern digital experiences and transparent financial services products to replace decades-old incumbent technologies, starting with the Coast Fleet and Fuel Card built on a cutting-edge spend management platform.
As an Account Executive in New York City, you will own the entire customer sales cycle from prospect to close for businesses operating 50–1,000 vehicles. You'll drive revenue through consultative, customer-first selling by developing a sales pipeline via strategic outbound prospecting and closing large inbound leads. You'll articulate the Coast value proposition to qualified decision makers, finance teams, and C-level executives, and collaborate with marketing to create holistic customer engagement strategies.
You'll share customer feedback with product, finance, and risk teams to improve the user experience, achieve and exceed sales targets, and provide input into sales organization strategy to help scale exponentially. Success in your first year means building and converting a consistent pipeline through outbound effort while hitting and exceeding quota quarter after quarter. You'll master platform selling by expanding relationships beyond the Fleet and Fuel Card to sell across Coast's full product suite, becoming a trusted advisor who translates deep product and market knowledge into consultative conversations that build lasting trust.
The role requires resilience and grit to push through setbacks and objections. You'll embrace Coast's AI-native culture by using and building on AI tools and agents to make yourself and the broader sales organization faster and sharper. You'll partner effectively across departments, recognizing that success depends on marketing, product, finance, and risk pulling together with Sales. You'll be in-office 3–4 days per week in NYC.
