Keycafe
Account Executive (Australia) - SaaS/IoT, Develop Australian Country Market
Be an Early Applicant
The Account Executive will build and grow the Australian market by owning the sales cycle, driving demos, and creating outreach methods. Emphasis is on entrepreneurial ownership within a growing SaaS/IoT company.
Do you want the challenge — and the reward — of building your own book of business?
At Keycafe, we’re looking for an Account Executive who thrives on creating new opportunities, closing deals, and owning an entire territory or industry segment.

What You’ll Do
- Own a market — you will be focused on the Australian market, and you’ll be responsible for growing our top segments as if it were your own business.
- Run high-impact demos that clearly show prospects how our SmartBox product solves their operational challenges.
- Drive the full sales cycle: prospecting, outreach, demos, negotiation, and close.
- Experiment and adapt — try new outreach methods, refine your pitch, and find creative ways to break through.
- Collaborate across teams to ensure smooth handoffs and long-term customer success.
Why Join Keycafe
- Entrepreneurial ownership: AEs at Keycafe own entire industries or countries, giving you the chance to build your own business line inside the company.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene
Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
