Software Executive Jobs in Indiana (NOW HIRING)

Description

Summary:

Safety Management Group is seeking a Account Executive (AE) local to Indianapolis, IN, to own and accelerate the growth of our VERO safety software business. This role requires both strategic GTM development and hands-on execution of complex mid-market sales cycles, including pipeline generation and sales support. 

The AE will operate in close coordination with SMG's Vice President of VERO and marketing team, helping to build and validate a scalable sales motion that will integrate into broader GTM coverage over time.
