Account Executive with 8+ years closing enterprise software deals and consistently exceeding quotas.
SloveniaWhat I'm looking for
I am an Account Executive with over eight years of full-cycle enterprise sales experience in fast-moving software scale-ups, consistently overachieving quota (up to 174% YTD) on complex, multi-stakeholder deals. I specialize in named-account strategies, C-suite engagement, and consultative discovery that improves win rates.
At Zebra BI I owned a named book of enterprise accounts, self-sourced 70% of pipeline, and was #1 in company performance and MVP voting, delivering more expansion revenue than the rest of my team combined. I also led sales enablement initiatives, increasing forecasted-win rates and building a self-service BI platform with 94% adoption across the sales organization.
Earlier roles combined financial analysis, BI, and account management where I used BI-driven insights to boost pipeline coverage and conversion rates. I hold a Master’s in Business Intelligence and a Bachelor’s in Banking and Financial Management from the University of Ljubljana.
