Account Executive - Field Sales, New Verticals
DoorDash USANew York, New York, United States · Posted TodayDescription
About the Team
On the New Verticals team, our mission is to build the future of local commerce through expanding our product offerings on the DoorDash platform. Stationed regionally, this team owns new business development by creating deep partnerships with the most coveted local and regional merchants across the US in our Grocery, Convenience, Liquor, Retail, and Flower segments.
You’ll lead the sales cycle and close partnerships with prospective merchants while promoting the DoorDash brand.
About the Role
We are looking for an Account Executive, Field Sales, to join our New Verticals team. This hybrid role combines primarily inside sales (about 70%) with targeted field-based selling (about 30%) to close high-priority deals. You’ll be responsible for identifying, pitching, and signing the best local and regional small- and mid-sized merchants (SMBs) onto DoorDash.
In this position, you will manage the full sales cycle—from prospecting through close—within a fast-paced, transactional environment. Most of your day will be spent in an office or home-office setting making high-volume outreach, engaging prospects creatively, and driving deals forward. When needed, you’ll step into the field to meet merchants face-to-face, build relationships, and finalize partnerships. Some travel, including occasional overnights or flights, will be required.
You will report to the Sales Manager for New Verticals and gain direct exposure to career development opportunities as the team continues to grow.
We expect this role to remain flexible, with a mix of in-office and remote work. You should be comfortable traveling for in-person collaboration—such as trainings, team offsites, and closing meetings—as business needs arise.
You’re excited about this opportunity because you will…
- Help transform the way stand-alone liquor stores monetize through our on-demand delivery service.
- Create a great first impression with merchants and build a pipeline of qualified leads.
- Lead the full sales cycle while closing transactions to attain new business from small to mid-sized merchants.
- Master email marketing automation tools to creatively engage prospects.
- Make a high volume of cold calls (80+) and emails to prospects daily.
- Spend time prospecting and closing deals in the field in person, up to 30% of the time.
We’re excited about you because…
- You have 3-4 years of experience working in a high volume inside sales environment.
- You have experience in Small - Medium (SMB) business to business sales.
- You have managed a full sales cycle and have been in a closing or lead generation sales role.
- You are genuinely curious about people, local businesses, and technology.
- You have a dynamic personality with a customer-focused mindset.
- You are creative, persistent, and passionate about sales.
- You can navigate sales and internal tools quickly (Salesforce, Outreach, Sales Navigator, Google Apps).
