Pontera is a fintech company on a mission to help people retire better. Our software platform enables retirement savers to get the help they need managing their 401(k) and other retirement plan accounts as part of a personalized strategy by their trusted financial advisor.
Pontera is used by financial advisors across the nation– from SMB to Fortune 500 RIA firms, independent broker-dealers, plan custodians, and plan advisors.
Backed by leading venture capital firms including ICONIQ Growth and Lightspeed Venture Partners, Pontera is built by talented individuals who share a dedication to helping people retire with greater security.
Our team is fast-growing and driven to become one of the largest fintech companies in the world. Our culture is built on a people-first principle: in a complex and numbers-driven industry, we never lose sight of the people we serve and work alongside. That’s where you come in.
Pontera is seeking an exceptional Growth Account Executive to join our growing team. This is a high-impact, pure sales role focused on the critical "0 to 5" activation phase of the advisor lifecycle. You will be responsible for guiding new advisors through the initial phase of platform adoption, driving them to reach the foundational milestone of five clients with managed assets.
This role is built for a proactive professional who thrives on "closing focus" and creating urgency. You will manage a named pipeline of individual advisors and advisor teams across all segments and a diversity of firms, utilizing advanced sales methodologies to ensure advisors realize the full economic value of the Pontera platform.
The primary mission of the role is to accelerate the "0 to 5" client journey. Data shows that an advisor’s likelihood of long-term success and retention (reaching 98%) is highly correlated with the speed at which they reach their first five clients. This role exists to move the curve by turning registered advisors into active, ramped users within their first 90-120 days.
Pontera is an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
