Sadie is building technology for hospitality.

We're looking for an account executive to win new restaurant customers around major cities in Australia, and to run every deal yourself from the first lead to the signed agreement.

This is a field role. You'll find restaurants through outbound outreach, networking and on-site visits, then meet owners in person and show them Sadie working on their own calls. You'll work with onboarding and customer success, so that what you sell goes live well. You'll carry monthly and quarterly targets and own the forecast behind them.

You decide where to spend your time and which deals to pursue, within agreed pricing and terms. AI should be part of how you work. Use it to research restaurants before a visit, prepare demos, draft proposals and follow-ups, and plan your territory. You're responsible for the quality of everything that goes out under your name.

What we value

• Sound judgement about which deals are real.
• Taking responsibility for your number and finishing work without being chased.
• Understanding how a restaurant makes money, and caring whether Sadie improves it.
• Curiosity about why a deal was lost, and a willingness to change your approach.
• The honesty to say a deal is slipping before the forecast says it for you.

What you'll do

• Win new restaurants, from first visit to signed agreement
• Build your own pipeline across your territory
• Hit your targets with a forecast you can defend
• Represent Sadie where restaurant people meet
• Hand over accounts that go live well

What you'll bring

• At least 2 years in a closing sales role, selling software or services to businesses.
• A record of meeting targets, and the ability to explain how you did it.
• Experience running the whole cycle yourself, from prospecting through to signature.
• Comfort with in-person selling, including cold visits and demos in front of a busy owner.
• Strong discovery skills. You can find out what an operator needs in fifteen minutes between services.
• Clear written communication. Your proposals and follow-ups are accurate and short.
• An honest forecast. You'd rather call a deal lost than carry it for another month.
• You use AI every day for research, preparation and drafting, and you check what it produces.
• You organise your own week across a territory and follow through without being managed.

Useful experience

• Selling to restaurants or other hospitality operators.
• Working in a restaurant yourself, front of house or in management.
• Selling reservations, POS, telephony or other restaurant technology.
• An existing network among restaurant owners in your territory.
• Selling AI products to non-technical buyers.
• Being an early sales hire at a startup.

Who will enjoy this role

You like finding out how a business really works. When an owner says they miss calls at seven on a Saturday, you want to know how many, what those calls were for, and what happened to the guest who hung up.

In a single week you might walk into six restaurants before lunch service, run a demo at a bar between shifts, spend an evening at a trade show, and sit with onboarding to sort out an account you signed. Your schedule follows the restaurant day, and some of your best conversations will happen at three in the afternoon or late at night.

The hard parts are specific. Owners are busy and sceptical, and many will turn you away mid-se
