Mention Me pride ourselves in providing end-end acquisition solutions to our customers through our leading AI-powered referral marketing solution and our AI-first micro influencer solution.

Backed by Octopus Ventures and Eight Roads, we’ve raised $32 million in funding since 2018.

Since 2013, our award-winning acquisition platform has driven over 9 million new customers, generating $3 billion in incremental revenue for our clients.

There’s a good chance you’ve already come across us while online shopping from ASOS, PUMA, Gymshark, Charlotte Tilbury, or any other of the 500+ global brands we work with.

Becoming a Mentioneer means you’ll be joining a driven team, with big plans, at a genuinely exciting time for our business.

Role Overview

This is a Senior Account Executive role built for closers. You will own the full new business cycle — from pipeline generation through to contract signature — targeting e-commerce and retail brands across the US market. You will operate with genuine autonomy, backed by world-class marketing, a best-in-class partner ecosystem, and a product that sells itself to any brand serious about profitable growth.

If you are excited about being a territory leader, motivated by uncapped earning potential, enjoy the craft of complex enterprise sales, and want to work somewhere your results are celebrated in real time — read on.

Key Responsibilities

Own The Full Sales Cycle

  • Manage a self-generated and inbound pipeline from qualification to close — no hand-holding, no excuses.
  • Consistently achieve or exceed monthly and quarterly new business quotas.
  • Build and maintain a robust pipeline at 4× coverage, with the rigour to forecast accurately

Win New Business

  • Prospect, qualify, and develop net-new opportunities across target verticals via strategic outreach (email, phone, LinkedIn, events).
  • Conduct high-impact discovery calls and tailored product demonstrations that connect Mention Me's value proposition directly to a prospect's commercial priorities.
  • Construct compelling business cases and ROI models that justify investment at CFO and CMO level.
  • Navigate complex, multi-stakeholder deals with confidence — managing legal, procurement, and executive relationships in parallel.

Partner & Ecosystem Leverage

  • Work in close partnership with our Partner and Alliances team to source and co-sell deals through the ecosystem.
  • Build and maintain senior relationships with key agency and technology partners to create durable top-of-funnel pipeline.

Operate With Commercial Rigour

  • Maintain impeccable CRM hygiene (HubSpot) — every interaction, next step, and deal update logged same-day.
  • Review your own performance weekly; identify patterns, address gaps, and raise your ceiling.
  • Feed competitive and market intelligence back to Product and Marketing to sharpen Mention Me's edge.

Raise The Bar

  • Share best practice, deal stories, and objection-handling playbooks with colleagues without being asked.
  • Coach and mentor more junior members of the sales team as the function scales.
  • Contribute to the evolution of our sales process — we expect senior contributors to improve the system, not just operate within it.

Essential

  • 3+ years of closing experience in B2B SaaS or Martech — a demonstrable track record of quota overachievement, year on year.
  • Proven ability to run a complex, multi-threaded sales cycle with deal values of £50k ARR+ and above.
  • Hunter mentality — you generate pipeline; you do not wait for it.
  • Intrinsically motivated: you set your own standards, which are higher than those of any quota.
  • Exceptional commercial acumen — you understand business models, financial levers, and how to position ROI with rigour.
  • Outstanding communication and storytelling skills, both written and verbal.
  • Disciplined pipeline management and forecasting — you know where every deal stands and why.

Desirable

  • Experience selling into CMO’s at e-commerce, retail, or direct-to-consumer brands.
  • Familiarity with the advocacy or customer acquisition ecosystem (referral, loyalty, paid media).
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-scaling environment where process is still being written.
  • A point of view — on sales, on the market, and on how we can win.

Why Mention Me?

  • Category-defining product in a market with genuine tailwinds — referral is becoming a primary growth channel for sophisticated e-commerce brands.
  • Strong product-market fit with a net revenue retention rate that keeps your customer base growing even before you close a single renewal.
  • 500+ brand customers across the UK, US, and Europe — credibility that opens doors.
  • A revenue team built on meritocracy — the highest performers are visible, celebrated, and accelerated.
  • Access to real commercial conversations at C-suite level from day one.
  • An executive team that has scaled SaaS businesses before and is invested in doing it right.

Here are some of our favourite perks and benefits, but we have so many more!

  • Hybrid working.
  • Private medical insurance with Vitality, including enhanced mental wellbeing support, dental and vision policies and a range of lifestyle benefits and great incentives.

  • Enhanced parental leave.
  • 25 days annual leave (plus public holidays), increasing over your time as a Mentioneer.
