Company Overview
Most companies don’t end in acquisition — they end in closure. Yet shutdown has never been given the same rigor, clarity, or professionalism as the moments that came before it. Nearly 4 million companies shut down every year, creating a massive, overlooked market. SimpleClosure is building the infrastructure to change that.
Having raised over $20M from leading VCs and trusted by more than 7,000 companies to date, we streamline the entire business dissolution process — from legal and tax to operational and administrative — as one coordinated effort instead of a patchwork of disconnected steps. We take it a step further by connecting founders with buyers for their remaining assets, so they can realize value that would otherwise be lost.
Joining SimpleClosure means helping define an entirely new category, solving complex, high-impact problems, and building the products and processes that support founders through one of the most important moments in a company’s journey.
Job Overview
We’re hiring an SMB Account Executive to run a high-velocity sales motion, working a steady flow of inbound demand and take deals from first conversation to signed contract on short cycles.
Your buyers are founders and CEOs facing one of the most consequential decisions of their company’s life. They need an AE who can run sharp discovery, build trust quickly, handle sensitive conversations with empathy, and still create the urgency to get to a decision. You’ll be measured on closed revenue, and you’ll have real ownership over how you hit your number.
This role is a strong fit for an AE who has already proven they can close and wants to do it in a category SimpleClosure is defining.
