About the role
The Private Equity Account Executive role at Rippling is a highly strategic position focused on building the go-to-market channel motion in the PE ecosystem from the ground up.

  • Serve as the Rippling subject matter expert (SME) for the PE vertical, articulating how Rippling drives efficiency, mitigates risk, and maximizes valuation for portcos throughout the investment lifecycle (diligence, acquisition, optimization, exit).
  • Generate qualified pipeline for Rippling's core sales organization by actively working with PE teams to influence technology decisions across their portfolio.
  • Collaborate internally with sales leadership, sales engineering, and legal teams to structure complex portfolio-wide master service agreements.
  • Track, manage, and forecast PE-influenced and sourced revenue in Salesforce, focusing on the strategic health of the PE partnerships and their impact on the broader organization's pipeline.
  • Lead executive-level presentations and discussions with PE stakeholders on the value proposition of Rippling as a preferred platform partner.
  • Achieve revenue targets based on PE-sourced and PE-influenced pipeline generation
  • Travel and connect in person with referral partners at least one or two times a week to strengthen the partnership for long-term success

What you will need
  • BA/BS Degree
  • 4+ years sales experience, particularly in SaaS markets selling B2B
  • Experience carrying a $800k+ annual quota, but sold $1M+ ARR in a year.
  • Proven track record of exceeding annual quota (top 10% of sales org)
  • Direct experience selling into or working with Private Equity firms, M&A teams, or financial institutions is highly preferred.
  • Deep understanding of the Private Equity investment lifecycle and key value drivers for Operating Partners and portfolio company CFOs/HR Leaders.
  • Experience selling Payroll and HRIS/HCM software and or a B2B platform to business users
  • Experience negotiating deals with a variety of C-Suite Executives to close opportunities
