Global Account Manager

About Showpad
In the old days, traveling salespeople hit the road with only a suitcase and a smile. And as times-and technology-have changed, Showpad has emerged as the industry-leading solution for modern selling that improves those classic tools of the trade.
In our case, the suitcase is more than a decade of expertise building the premier revenue enablement platform, one that continues to influence the direction in which the industry is evolving. And the smile? Well, that's the people oriented culture that surrounds everything we do.
We bring in great individuals, but we always play as a team. We'll enable you to grow like never before, and we'll grow with you, too. We are a European-born company with a global impact, but we like to keep things simple.
We are passionate and bold as well as humble and authentic. We empower each team member to be their true selves. We take ownership, and we also take vacations. And although we value constant improvement and frequent platform updates, we try not to deploy on Fridays.
That's why Showpad does more than drive impactful buying experiences. We take serious care of our people, but never take ourselves too seriously.
