About the Role

We are hiring a territory-based Regional Account Executive to drive new customer acquisition across restaurants and higher education within a defined region. You will be responsible for sourcing, qualifying, and closing new business. This role does not own post-sale account management, as our dedicated Account Management team is responsible for that. 

If you thrive in a high-activity environment, enjoy building pipeline, and want ownership of a defined territory with meaningful revenue targets, this role is for you.

What You’ll Own

New Business Development (Primary Focus)

• Prospect and engage restaurants (single & multi-unit) and higher education dining operators within your assigned territory

• Conduct discovery calls, virtual demos, and in-person meetings
• Build and manage a healthy, qualified pipeline to consistently achieve quota
• Close new machine placements that meet defined financial and operational criteria

Territory Management (Hybrid Model)

• Work primarily remotely using outbound calling, email, and virtual meetings
• Travel into your territory (~25%) to:
• Conduct site visits and qualification
• Advance late-stage deals
• Secure executive alignment and close net-new business opportunities

Deal Execution

• Own the sales cycle from first touch through signed agreement
• Secure installation dates in partnership with internal teams
• Ensure sites meet qualification standards before contract execution
• Accurately forecast pipeline and deal progression
• Maintain clean, disciplined CRM hygiene in Salesforce

Performance & Accountability

You will be measured on:

• New Botrista machines delivered quarterly
• Pipeline generation and coverage
• Win rate and deal velocity
• Activity levels aligned to pipeline goals

What You Bring

• 3+ years of full-cycle B2B net-new sales experience, preferably in the hospitality or restaurant tech industries
• Proven track record of prospecting and closing net-new business
• Comfort operating in a hybrid inside/field sales motion
• Strong discovery and consultative selling skills
• Ability to manage a territory independently and prioritize effectively
• Experience using Salesforce to manage pipeline and forecast
• Willingness to travel within assigned territory (~25%)

What Makes Someone Successful Here

• Self-starter who can build pipeline without waiting for inbound
• Comfortable with high outbound activity and disciplined follow-up
• Strong financial acumen (understands ROI, payback, margin impact)
• High accountability; owns results without needing heavy oversight
• Organized and process-oriented
• Competitive and goal-driven
