Account Executive, Mid-market, Nordics

Notion Notion · Enterprise · Dublin, Ireland · Sales

Account Executive for Notion's Mid-Market segment in Nordics, driving new customer acquisition and expansion. This role requires a full-cycle seller with experience in structured discovery, compelling demos, navigating technical and business stakeholders, and closing complex opportunities. The AE will work with buyers like CIO, CTO, VP Product, and VP Engineering, and needs to develop strong product fluency in technical use cases including AI/agentic workflows.

What you'd actually do

  1. An outbound-first mentality: proactively build net new pipeline and move quickly to create momentum within accounts.
  2. Own the full sales cycle, including prospecting, discovery, solution alignment, demoing, stakeholder management, negotiation, and close.
  3. Run high-quality discovery calls to uncover business outcomes and technical requirements, translating them into a clear value narrative.
  4. Deliver live demos and tailored storytelling to guide customers through evaluation, including light solution design as needed (workspace architecture, permissions, rollout approach, integrations) to unblock adoption.
  5. Navigate complex commercial-stage requirements (security, legal, procurement) with support from cross-functional partners.

Skills

Required

  • 4–7+ years of closing experience in a full-cycle quota-carrying role (or adjacent role with clear closing exposure), with consistent attainment.
  • Experience selling into or working closely with technical buyer personas (e.g., CIO/CTO/VP Eng/VP Product), translating product capabilities into workflow and ROI narratives.
  • Outbound discipline, pipeline creativity and full-cycle sales capability, including discovery, demo and closing motions.
  • Demonstrated ability to run multi-threaded deals and influence across complex customer org structures
  • High agency and ownership: proactively creates momentum, solves problems, and earns trust across functions.
  • Hands-on orientation with AI: uses AI to improve personal workflow and can speak to modern AI-enabled work patterns.
  • Comfortable with ambiguity — as Notion expands across Nordics, you’ll help refine our Mid Market motion (outbound, partner, and expansion plays), build repeatable process, and bring sharp customer feedback into how we scale.

Nice to have

  • Experience with usage-based / consumption pricing models.
  • Prior exposure to developer tooling, APIs, data, infrastructure, or AI products.
  • Experience moving upmarket (commercial → mid-market) and demonstrating readiness for increased complexity.
