They are the face of 15Five and will lead our brand in the market. You will primarily engage with these executives via email and phone, but some onsite travel will be part of the role as well. All AEs are quota-carrying reps responsible for the full sales cycle within their book of business. Ae’s will also be responsible for hunting for new deals to fill their pipeline.
