The Role

As our Founding Account Executive, you'll build the enterprise sales engine at Midnight Labs (The Enterprise offering under Ceartas) from the ground up. This is the opportunity to shape how we sell, who we target, and how we support our largest customers. You'll work directly with founders, collaborate with product and engineering, and own enterprise relationships across entertainment, gaming, sports, and media.

You'll inherit existing opportunities and hit the ground running alongside the founder, helping close early deals while simultaneously identifying patterns, establishing a repeatable sales methodology, and building the playbook that scales. You'll also help shape our offering, pricing, and go-to-market positioning as we grow.

What You'll Do

Own enterprise sales from prospecting to close. Identify, qualify, and pursue opportunities across entertainment, gaming, sports, and adjacent IP-heavy verticals.
Build and execute a go-to-market strategy. Work with leadership to define market priorities, develop messaging, and establish the enterprise sales motion.
Establish sales methodology and processes. Create pitch decks, discovery frameworks, demo flows, and sales playbooks that you and future salespeople can scale.
Close revenue. Bring in customers, establish product-market fit signals, and prove the sales motion works at scale.
Help shape the product and commercial strategy. You'll be in strategic conversations that influence product roadmap, pricing, and market positioning.

What You Bring

4+ years of enterprise sales experience. You've closed mid-market to enterprise deals and understand the complexity of selling to organisations with legal, security, and procurement requirements. SaaS is ideal but not required.
Self-directed and resourceful. You're comfortable with ambiguity, don't need hand-holding, and can move forward with incomplete information. You source opportunities, build conviction, and learn quickly.
Ability to sell complex products. Midnight Labs solves a nuanced, technical problem for sophisticated buyers. You can translate technology into business value and navigate risk-averse purchasing processes.
Natural relationship builder. You understand that enterprise deals are won through trust and relationships. You're comfortable navigating multiple stakeholders including legal, security, and C-suite, and building credibility with each.
Entrepreneurial mindset. You see early-stage challenges as opportunities. You want to build something meaningful and aren't intimidated by defining new processes.

Bonus Points

You have existing relationships in entertainment, gaming, sports, media, or the creator economy.
You've sold to production companies, streaming platforms, talent agencies, or sports organisations.
You understand IP protection, digital rights, content security, or anti-piracy challenges.
You've been a founding sales hire before and successfully built a repeatable process.

What We Offer

Competitive base salary with a commission structure that heavily rewards you for closing deals. We'll share full OTE and equity details with shortlisted candidates.
25 paid days off per year, plus public holidays, and your birthday.
A culture of innovation, continuous learning, and collaboration.
A vibrant, inclusive workplace that celebrates diversity and equal opportunity.
Access to the latest technology.
Employee recognition and reward programmes.
Direct access to founders and leadership. You'll have a seat at the table.
WFH in New York City. You'll travel periodically to our team in Ireland and to clients as deals demand.
A clear growth path. As our first enterprise salesperson, you'll have the opportunity to grow into leading the US sales function, hiring, developing, and scaling a team as we expand.

Why This Matters

Piracy costs creators and studios billions. Deepfakes cause real harm to talent and executives. We're building the technology to protect IP holders and creators at scale. As our first enterprise salesperson, you're not just hitting quota. You're helping define a new category, protecting creators and studios from real threats, and laying the foundation for a sales team that will grow with you at its head.
