Account Executive
Taken at the midpoint of its range, $135,000/yr, this role pays more than the middle Account Executive opening on the board today ($126k/yr); the usual band for that kind of seat is $82k–$315k/yr.
Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
