Hello Future ResQer!

ResQ is looking for our first Sales hire to launch and lead a brand new vertical focused on SMB Commercial Trades. This is a rare opportunity to take a promising product from early concept to market fit, shape the future of ResQ's expansion beyond restaurants, and help us build something that could redefine how trades businesses grow and operate.

As our Founding Account Executive, you'll be responsible for executing our go-to-market strategy, creating meaningful partnerships with top local and regional trades vendors, and driving new revenue for the business.

You'll be joining a high-impact team that fuels much of ResQ's growth, and your work will directly influence how we evolve our product, pricing, and positioning in this new market.

We understand that joining a team is one of the most important choices you'll make and adding a team member is one of the most important choices we'll make. We want you to get to know us, and we want to understand how you approach problems, learn, and what motivates you.

Are you nodding your head with excitement at the idea of :

• Being the first Sales rep to sell into the trades vertical
• Taking a half-baked product and identifying the real value propositions that resonate with trades professionals
• Enjoying conversations with contractors, service business owners, and vendors to uncover pain points and match them to the right solutions
• Thriving in an environment of testing, iterating, failing, winning, and learning often all in the same week
• Tracking every metric, conversion, and insight because this role is as much about discovery as it is about selling
• Rolling with constant change and helping the team use your feedback to get closer to product-market fit

We are a mission-driven team and have a big vision to revolutionize the service industry. While on that journey, we recognize that building a startup is very hard. Turning vision into reality in a fast-growing environment takes superhuman efforts and is often one of the most difficult, yet rewarding, things one can do.

We do our best to ensure transparency during all stages of the interview process but we realize it's a lot of information to take in at once so we wanted to centralize everything to make it easier for you to navigate through. We have created a Talent Notion page which will help you learn more about us during the recruitment process.
