Strategic Account Manager
Job Description
About Zip
Here at Zip, we're reimagining how modern businesses function in the age of AI. The simple task of buying software, services, or tools at work has become hopelessly complicated at even the most innovative companies in the world. Today, enterprises spend $120T+ per year globally (>30 times larger than annual consumer e-commerce spend) and rely on vendors more than ever before to run their businesses.
Our co-founders started Zip in 2020 to address this seemingly universal problem with a purpose-built procurement platform that provides a simple, consumer-grade user experience. Within the last 5 years, Zip has created a new category and developed the leading solution in this $50B+ TAM space. Today, the world’s leading companies like OpenAI, Snowflake, Anthropic, Coinbase, and JPMorgan Chase rely on Zip to manage billions of dollars in spend.
We have a world-class team coming from category-defining companies like Airbnb, Meta, Stripe, Salesforce, Apple, and Google. With a $2.2 billion valuation and $370 million in funding from Y Combinator, Tiger Global, BOND, DST Global, and CRV, we’re focused on developing cutting-edge technology, expanding into new global markets, and—above all–driving incredible value for our customers. Join us!

- •Experience selling into procurement, finance, risk and legal functions within Fortune 500 or Global 2000 organizations.
- •Proven ability to drive enterprise retention and expansion, managing complex, multi-threaded relationships.
- •Exceptional strategic account management skills with a track record of growing enterprise partnerships.
- •Expert negotiator with experience structuring large, multi-year contracts.
- •Highly self-driven and outcome-oriented—able to operate at both a strategic and executional level.
