Job Description

📍 US Remote (Midwest / East Coast preferred)
      EAM / CMMS | Install Base Growth 


Why this role exists

Ultimo builds enterprise asset management (EAM) software for organisations where physical assets sit at the heart of operations - particularly across manufacturing, logistics, food & beverage, utilities, and facilities.

This is mission critical software, embedded deeply in how customers operate day to day.

You’ll inherit a portfolio of commercial accounts that already use Ultimo. Your mandate is to expand those relationships across business units, sites, and product modules and turn initial deployments into enterprise-wide adoption.

This is a build-and-expand role - not new logo hunting, and not passive account management.

Why join Ultimo now

EAM is a core strategic focus for IFS. A significant investment was made to accelerate growth and establish market leadership and the North American expansion is a key part of that strategy.

For you, that creates a clear opportunity:

  • Warm accounts with real expansion potential : You’re not opening doors from scratch. These customers already trust the product your role is to unlock the next phase of growth.
  • You help define how the US market scales : North America is still early. You won’t inherit a fixed playbook  you’ll help shape how expansion is done.
  • Meaningful deals, realistic timelines : Commercial accounts are large enough to matter, but agile enough to move. You’ll close impactful deals in quarters, not years.
  • Visibility and career impact :Strong performance here is visible. You’re not one of hundreds you’re helping build the US growth engine.

Your mandate (Install Base / Expansion)

As a Senior Account Executive, you will:

  • Own and grow a portfolio of install-base accounts
  • Focus strategically on your top accounts
  • Build and execute account expansion strategies based on real operational insight
  • Identify opportunities across plants, sites, and business units
  • Lead upsell and cross-sell sales cycles end-to-end
  • Engage operations leaders, IT, procurement, and C-level stakeholders
  • Drive value-led, consultative sales conversations
  • Collaborate closely with EU sales teams, Customer Success, and Pre-Sales
  • Help shape how US–EU collaboration works in practice

This role is about expansion through insight, not volume through activity.

How you’ll operate

Ultimo operates like a scale-up inside a serious enterprise business:

  • High autonomy and ownership
  • Direct access to leadership
  • Expectation to take initiative and improve how things are done
  • CRM-driven environment with clear expectations around pipeline and forecasting

You’ll be trusted to run your accounts, make decisions, and drive outcomes.

What We’re Offering

  • Salary Range:  $125,000 to $150,000 plus 100% variable compensation, uncapped
  • Flexible paid time off, including sick and holiday
  • Medical, dental, & vision insurance
  • 401K with Company contribution
  • Flexible spending accounts
  • Life insurance and disability benefits
  • Tuition assistance
  • Community involvement and volunteering events

The bottom line

This is strategic account expansion within a proven customer base.

If you’re motivated by ownership, commercial impact, and the opportunity to build something meaningful in the US market  we’d love to hear from you.
