Founding Account Executive

About Elyos AI

We’re building the next generation of customer service with AI Agents. Our agents answer calls, reply to emails and WhatsApp messages, make bookings, take payments, and operate the CRM in the same way a human would.

We founded Elyos in June 2023 and took part in the Y Combinator S23 batch. Our founders spent four months in San Francisco living and breathing AI. Since then, we’ve been growing revenue ~30% month on month and shipping fast. It’s been wild so far - and we’re just getting started. We recently raised a $13m series A to turbocharge our growth.

Why join us?

We’re growing 30% month on month here in the UK and now expanding rapidly into new markets. As our Account Executive, you’ll have a direct impact on our growth trajectory - owning sales from pipeline through to close.

• You’ll own customer acquisition from pipeline through to closing deals.
• You’ll be the tip of the spear for our rapid growth targets this year.
