Axiom
Chicago, IL

About Axiom:

Axiom is where legal teams go to find the right talent for everything from routine in-house tasks to complex outside counsel work. Too many legal departments are stuck having to choose between paying the high fees of their law firm, hiring full-time employees they don't need, or turning to a low-cost agency that can't meet their quality standards. At the same time, top lawyers want to work on challenging legal matters, but they want more control over how, when, and where they practice. Both are forced compromises that no one should have to make. Axiom shares and meets the higher standards of its clients and lawyers, with our "work smarter, adapt faster, go further" approach – connecting growing mid-market and Fortune 500 companies with the world's deepest bench of experienced, specialized legal talent.

About the Team:

We exist to inject new energy and new thinking into a precedent-bound profession. We love the company we're building with undignified enthusiasm. We're committed to our mission and to our people. We celebrate our successes, learn from our failures, and find opportunity in adversity. We surround ourselves with inspiring, talented people who have a contagious energy and incurable passion for what they do. We pride ourselves on listening and relating to our colleagues and clients in a way that's genuine, human, and memorable. We care about the little things.

This role is well-suited for a highly consultative seller who's accustomed to sitting at the table with executive-level decision makers to devise solutions to their toughest problems.

    • Consulting with C-level executives: Our clients are savvy leaders of the world's largest in-house legal teams, and you will be at the table with them daily planning for their future.
    • Collaborating: At Axiom we pride ourselves on our cross-functional sales culture. This is a not a role for the lone wolf seller. You will partner daily with the broader commercial team to close and support strategic opportunities.
    • Leading: You will offer thought leadership to clients as well as internally mentor and offer professional insights to junior team members.

About You:

  • You have a background in B2B client service and have extensive experience consultative sales role where you exceeded business goals on a monthly, quarterly, and/or annual basis.
  • You have a proven track record in heavy business development initiatives and generating new logos.
  • You are comfortable working in a senior role as an individual contributor.
  • You understand what goes into the sales process from prospecting to close, and you're no stranger to managing multiple complex deals across multiple clients and stages.
  • You are highly organized with a meticulous attention to detail and pattern recognition, you manage your time well and possess expert judgment and decision-making skills.
  • You are a high-impact communicator and know how to present to executive-level stakeholders. You're no stranger to PowerPoint and the rest of Microsoft Office Suite.
  • You know your way around Salesforce (or comparable CRM system) and understand the importance of leveraging data to make smart decisions about where to spend your time.
  • You demonstrate a relentless service orientation, effortlessly form trusted-advisor relationships, are catalytic in your desire to improve the status quo, and can operate effectively within a highly collaborative team environment.
  • You are legally eligible to work in the United States.

The annual base salary range for this role located in Chicago, Illinois is $80,000-$130,00 depending on experience.

You can also participate in our benefits programs that include healthcare, life and disability coverage, 401K with company match, paid sick and personal time off, paid parental leave and more . Please note that the final compensation is determined by several considerations, including the quality of your experience and expertise, your ability to immediately contribute to Axiom, your potential to move up to the next level, the market you are located in, and other business considerations.
