Description
Commercial Account Executive
As an Account Executive, you’ll help faith-based and mission-driven organizations find the giving, payments and ministry tools that make their work easier. This is a full-cycle, net-new role. You’ll prospect, build relationships quickly, and close a steady volume of small and midsized deals through a repeatable, high-velocity sales motion. Success here comes from consistent execution, not occasional large deals.
Who is Vanco:
ACST Powered by Vanco is the newly combined powerhouse behind how churches across the country manage ministry and move money, bringing together Vanco Payments, the payments platform already trusted by tens of thousands of congregations, and ACS Technologies (ACST), the church management software (ChMS) long relied on by ministries to run their day-to-day operations.
What you’ll do:
- Prospect every day through outbound calls, email and automated sequences to build your own pipeline of new customers
- Run structured discovery to understand each prospect’s needs and qualify opportunities
- Explain Vanco’s value simply and persuasively, and handle objections with confidence
- Manage and close multiple opportunities at the same time across short sales cycles
- Keep your CRM activity, pipeline and forecast current, using sales engagement and AI tools to work efficiently
What you own:
- Owns individual new-logo quota attainment, consistently month over month and quarter over quarter
- Owns a self-generated pipeline large enough to hit quota, so results don’t depend on inbound leads
- Owns conversion from lead to opportunity to closed-won, improving win rate and deal velocity over time
- Owns accurate forecasting and CRM data, so sales leadership can plan with confidence

Preferred

- Experience in a high-volume, shorter-cycle sales motion
- Comfort using AI tools to prospect and work more efficiently
- Recognition for sales performance or progression, such as President’s Club or promotion from SDR/BDR to AE
Why You’ll Want to Work Here:
- Mission-driven organization
- A sales career path on a team that’s investing in growth, with coaching from experienced sales leadership
- Small collaborative teams where you can impact both outcome and culture
