About Us
Adapt API is an innovative, venture-backed startup that is revolutionizing the Property & Casualty (P&C) insurance industry by creating an advanced operational framework.
Stepping into a traditional insurance agency often feels like entering a bygone era, filled with outdated methods such as filing cabinets, fax machines, and heaps of paperwork. Even in areas where digitization has occurred, cumbersome manual processes still prevail, with disparate systems lacking direct communication and requiring continuous data transfer.
Through a meticulous approach, Adapt is transforming each inefficient process into a streamlined, error-free workflow, thereby enhancing the operational capabilities of insurance agents.
Although the specifics of our implementation may evolve, this vision remains our guiding principle, essential for the future we aspire to create.
The Significance of This Role
In this position, you won't merely wait for enterprise deals to come your way. Instead, you will proactively cultivate your pipeline, manage your own sales processes, and successfully close intricate, multi-stakeholder deals against well-established competitors in a sector that is ripe for disruption.
As the inaugural dedicated Enterprise Account Executive at Adapt, you will not be taking over a pre-existing territory or following a set playbook. You will define the role, collaborating closely with the Head of Sales and the CEO to shape what enterprise success looks like for Adapt, and clinch the deals that demonstrate our ability to excel at this level.
The need for action is pressing. We currently have enterprise leads that we are not fully capitalizing on. Our product addresses a significant, costly issue. What we are looking for is an individual who can swiftly and consistently convert complex opportunities from initial contact to closure, achieving a close rate that sets a new standard for excellence in our team.
Why Join Adapt?
Shape the Enterprise Strategy: As the first Enterprise AE, you will have the unique opportunity to craft the sales motion, refine messaging, address objections, and structure deals. This is a rare and pivotal career moment.
Unlimited Earning Potential: Enjoy a robust base salary complemented by an aggressive commission structure and enterprise deal sizes that can dramatically impact your earning potential.
Genuine Solutions for Real Challenges: Be part of a team that is tackling significant pain points in the insurance industry.
