Account Executive - Field Sales at Flipdish · Bristol

At Flipdish, we’re turning the tables in favour of independent restaurant and takeaway owners by offering powerful, simple-to-use tech solutions backed by real human support. Everything we do is designed to make running a restaurant satisfyingly simple - in a world that’s anything but. About the role We’re looking for a driven, commercially minded Field Sales Account Executive to join our fast-growing Sales team. You’ll own your territory’s new business pipeline end-to-end and represent Flipdish in the field, building relationships with restaurant owners, hospitality groups, and franchise operators. This is a hands-on, consultative role that combines pipeline ownership with in-person meetings. You’ll uncover how a venue operates today, diagnose problems and growth opportunities, and help prospective customers modernise how they run operations using Flipdish. In this job you’ll: Own the full sales cycle for your territory - from prospecting and first outreach through discovery, proposals, negotiation, and close. Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified opportunities, balancing warm inbound leads with proactive outbound prospecting. Run compelling face-to-face meetings and tailored demos that clearly link Flipdish’s value to each customer’s commercial and operational goals. Listen, diagnose, and advise - uncover pain points, build a consultative business case, and recommend the right solution and commercial structure. Navigate complex deals with multiple stakeholders, handle objections, and move opportunities forward with pace and professionalism. Challenge poor decisions and propose better ways of working. Constructive challenge is a responsibility - prioritising harmony over truth or progress is a failure of responsibility. What success looks like Consistently hit or exceed monthly/quarterly new business targets for your territory. Maintain a high-quality, well-forecasted pipeline with clear next steps and strong conversion through each stage. Close deals that are a good fit and onboard smoothly, with low churn risk and clear customer outcomes.

Have a track record of building your own outbound pipeline and consistently hitting or exceeding targets Are confident running consultative conversations - asking the right questions, listening well, and connecting product value to business outcomes. Are highly organised and self-directed - you can plan your territory, manage your time, and follow up without needing constant direction. Are commercially savvy and comfortable discussing pricing, ROI, and contract terms. The following would help you stand out. Experience selling SaaS to SMBs (especially restaurant experience / restaurant tech experience / food service). Strong negotiation skills and evidence of closing mid-market / multi-site opportunities. Familiarity with POS, online ordering, loyalty, or restaurant operations tooling.
