Relay, a Raleigh-based tech startup, is looking to change the way we communicate. We’re on a mission that matters. 

Frontline workers are the lifeblood of our economy and we're building the platform that makes them better, faster and safer than ever before.

We’re hiring for an Enterprise Account Executive to join our Sales team in a strategic capacity.

We not only equip you to be successful and close deals, but we want your feedback and input on how we can iterate and optimize. As a crucial part of the Sales team, you will have access to a lucrative market with a product that has gained enormous traction in the marketplace.
