Founding Account Executive

What were building

The last decade of freelancing platforms optimised for profiles, resumes, and race-to-the-bottom pricing.

The next shift is already here.

AI is changing how work gets done, not just who does it. Founders dont want to hire freelancers. They want outcomes - shipped products, working automations, real business impact - delivered fast, without building bloated teams.

BeGig is building the AI-first freelancing and execution layer for this new world.

We combine:

• End-to-end AI & automation execution
• On-demand, high-quality tech talent
• Outcome-based delivery instead of time-based billing

No endless hiring cycles. No agency bloat. No marketplace chaos.

Just execution that works.

Were early, opinionated, and moving fast - and now were hiring our first true sales hire to help turn founder-led momentum into a real revenue engine.

The role

Were hiring a Founding Account Executive to work directly with the founder and close revenue.

This is not a follow the playbook role because there is no playbook yet.

Youll be selling:

• End-to-end AI and automation execution
• On-demand tech talent for startups and operators
• Typical deal sizes today: $5k$10k

Your buyers will mostly be founders and CTOs - smart, impatient, outcome-driven people who want things shipped, not sold to.

Youll own deals end-to-end:

• First conversation problem shaping proposal close
• No SDR layer. No RevOps team. No fluff.

If youre excited by clarity, autonomy, and real responsibility this role will feel electric.

If you need structure handed to you - this will feel uncomfortable fast.

What youll actually do

This is a close + build role.

In the early months, youll:

• Run sales conversations yourself and close deals
• Help founders translate messy problems into clear scopes
• Pressure-test pricing, packaging, and positioning in real time
• Learn directly from wins and lost deals

As patterns emerge, youll:

• Help shape BeGigs sales motion from scratch
• Create lightweight processes that dont slow us down
• Feed market signal back into positioning, offerings, and delivery
• Act as a true extension of the founder, not a downstream closer

Success is simple and visible: revenue closes and customers ship.

This role is not for you if

Lets be explicit.

You want leads handed to you

You only want to close but not shape the sale

You need perfect decks, pricing pages, and scripts

Youre uncomfortable selling something thats still evolving

You prefer safety over speed

Youll be a great fit if you

Have sold in chaos before

Youve been an early AE at a fast startup or youre an ex-founder who knows how to sell before things are perfect.

Can sell outcomes, not features

Youre comfortable talking to founders and CTOs about real problems, trade-offs, and execution not just pitch decks.

Have closed real deals

Youve owned revenue before. $5k$10k deals dont scare you, and you know how to move fast without cutting corners.

Operate with high agency

You dont wait for permission. You see whats missing and just do it.

Match the pace

We move fast. Sometimes messy. Always forward. That excites you more than it scares you.

How we work

• Role: Founding Account Executive
• Reporting: Directly to the founder
• Work mode: Fully remote
• Pace: Slightly unhinged (in a good way)
• Comp: Competitive fixed + performance-linked incentives

Why BeGig

If you join now, you wont just be selling deals.

Youll be:

• Shaping how AI-first execution is sold
• Influencing product, delivery, and positioning directly
• Building the foundation of a sales engine from scratch
• Working closely with a founder who values speed, honesty, and outcomes

If that excites you - we should talk.
