Account Executive
Opportunity is not evenly distributed. Shopify puts independence within reach for anyone with a dream to start a business. We propel entrepreneurs and enterprises to scale the heights of their potential. Since 2006, we’ve grown to over 8,300 employees and generated over $1 trillion in sales for millions of merchants in 175 countries.
This is life-defining work that directly impacts people’s lives as much as it transforms your own. This is putting the power of the few in the hands of the many, is a future with more voices rather than fewer, and is creating more choices instead of an elite option.
Moving at our pace brings a lot of change, complexity, and ambiguity—and a little bit of chaos. Shopifolk thrive on that and are comfortable being uncomfortable. That means Shopify is not the right place for everyone.
Before you apply, consider if you can:
- Care deeply about what you do and about making commerce better for everyone
- Excel by seeking professional and personal hypergrowth
- Keep up with an unrelenting pace (the week, not the quarter)
- Be resilient and resourceful in face of ambiguity and thrive on (rather than endure) change
- Bring critical thought and opinion
- Embrace differences and disagreement to get shit done and move forward
- Work digital-first for your daily work
At Shopify, we simplify enterprise commerce for businesses of all types. We empower high-growth, high-volume merchants with the scalability, reliability, and flexibility they need. Our commitment is to make every merchant love their commerce platform and tools, and our B2B Wholesale team plays a crucial role in making this a reality.
📁 We are looking for a visionary enterprise seller who can support the new acquisition of merchants for our B2B Wholesale business. You will be someone who strengthens the value of partnerships internally and can harness those partnerships to transform the business of merchants in the Manufacturing, Construction, Industrial and Distribution markets. You will bring a macro perspective to our growth and development, and know how to drive sustainable, healthy growth in our business.
