We closed our Series-C funding at a 3.3B valuation at the beginning of this year and are backed by the leading names in tech and AI (a16z, ICONIQ, NEA, Sequoia, NFDG, Salesforce, and many others).

We are at an exciting phase of our growth and innovation and are looking for ambitious people to help us further push the boundaries of voice AI. This is a rare chance to be an early member of a company on the rise. If this excites you, we want to meet you!

We innovate quickly and take pride in getting things right, from the big picture initiatives to the details that keep us moving smoothly every day. We work with high autonomy and accountability where the best idea wins at any time and from anyone.

About the role

We’re looking for a first Sr. Account Executive to launch business in Japan. A highly motivated, self-starter who is passionate about voice technology and how it is changing businesses.

  • Identify new business opportunities in the media/publishing or gaming space that align with ElevenLabs’ product offering and roadmap.

  • Generate leads, negotiate contracts and close sales in collaboration with the Growth team.

  • Develop and maintain a deep understanding of the media/publishing or gaming industry.

  • Be responsible for KPI and sales performance tracking, providing weekly updates to the wider ElevenLabs team.

Who you are

We're looking for exceptional individuals who combine technical excellence with ethical awareness, who are excited by hard problems and motivated by human impact. You’ll strive with us if you: 

  • Are passionate about audio AI driven by a desire to make content universally accessible and breaking the frontiers of new tech.  

  • Are a highly motivated and driven individual with a strong work ethic. Our team is aware of this critical moment of audio AI evolution and is committed to going the extra mile to lead. 

  • Are analytical, efficient, and strive on solving complex challenges with a first principles mindset. 

  • Consistently strive for excellence, delivering high-quality work quickly and exceeding expectations.

  • Take initiative and work autonomously from day one, prioritizing learning and contribution while leaving ego aside.

What you bring

  • Proven track record of meeting & exceeding sales targets in a fast-paced environment.

  • 5-7 years of previous experience in sales in a SaaS organisation.

  • Expertise or willingness to learn everything about media/publishing or gaming industry and how ElevenLabs’ solution can help.

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build and maintain relationships with stakeholders at all levels of an organization.

  • A hybrid of customer & product-driven mentality that prioritises client satisfaction & scale.

  • Plus: Proficiency in French, German, Chinese or Japanese.

What we offer

  • High-velocity innovation: Rapid experimentation, lean autonomous teams, and minimal bureaucracy.

  • A truly global team: Collaboration with teammates across 30+ countries, a global customer footprint and office hubs in New York, London and Warsaw. Annual company offsite for the whole team to get together (the last one in Croatia!) 

  • Remote first: We prioritize your talent, not your location, with structured asynchronous workflows for maximum impact and minimal meetings.

  • Continuous growth: Collaborate with AI leaders, shape your path, and contribute where you excel most.
