About gWorks:
gWorks builds software that helps small local governments work better. Our clients are public servants, city clerks, utility billing staff, public works teams, and county administrators. These are the folks who keep their communities running smoothly. Their work is essential, but often constrained by outdated tools.
We fix that. Our cloud-based platform replaces legacy systems with simple, integrated software built specifically for small governments. We serve thousands of communities nationwide, streamlining operations, improving service delivery, and making day-to-day work more manageable.
We’re consolidating several acquired products into one platform and guiding our clients through this transition. It’s complex, important work that requires a team that can execute at a high level to help drive that transformation.
The Role:
The Account Executive drives results that advance both revenue goals and our mission. This role demands initiative, competitive energy, and the discipline to focus on high-impact outcomes. Success requires consistent execution across varied activities, the confidence to take decisive action, and the ability to engage others in achieving shared goals.
The ideal candidate pairs curiosity and humility with a relentless commitment to improve their craft by turning coaching into action and feedback into measurable wins. They build trust quickly, foster strong relationships, and communicate with clarity, purpose, and persuasion.
Independent yet collaborative, the Account Executive works with urgency, resilience, and a high standard of performance. Every deal closed not only grows the business but also furthers the meaningful impact we deliver to those we serve.
