About Orita 

Orita builds AI customer segments for many of the best brands in the world including (deep breath) Spanx, ThirdLove, True Classic, Tracksmith, Harney & Sons, Sun Bum, Ministry of Supply, Thursday Boots, gorjana, and hundreds more.

Orita’s algorithms help brands understand who wants to hear from them, when, and through what channel (email, SMS, direct mail today, more coming soon …). By messaging prospects and customers when they’re actually listening, you’re able to make a bunch of money.

In a world where acquisition costs are skyrocketing, fixing retention and driving LTV is the key to profitable growth.

For marketers or business owners passionate about their customers and messaging, it can be tough to let go and trust something as personal as their customer list to a bunch of algorithms and machines. Luckily at Orita, it’s our goal to make sure our customers know we have their backs, and go above and beyond to earn their trust.

As Orita’s Founding MM Account Executive, you will

• Own and manage the full sales cycle for mid-market clients, from prospecting to closing

• Work with our partnerships team closely. Partnerships are key to Orita, specifically our relationships with (1) Retention Agencies (2) Klaviyo CSMs and Account Executives.

• Partner with the Marketing and Partnerships teams to align on lead generation strategies and create compelling outreach campaigns.
