Job Description
Who we are:
For over 20 years, Global Relay has set the standard in enterprise information archiving with industry-leading cloud archiving, surveillance, eDiscovery, and analytics solutions. We securely capture and preserve the communications data of the world's most highly regulated firms, giving them greater visibility and control over their information and ensuring compliance with stringent regulations.
Though we offer competitive compensation and benefits and all the other perks one would expect from an established company, we are not your typical technology company. Global Relay is a career-building company. A place for big ideas. New challenges. Groundbreaking innovation. It's a place where you can genuinely make an impact - and be recognized for it.
We believe great businesses thrive on diversity, inclusion, and the contributions of all employees. To that end, we recruit candidates from different backgrounds and foster a work environment that encourages employees to collaborate and learn from each other, completely free of barriers.
We encourage you to apply if your qualifications and experience are a good fit for any of our openings.
Your role:
Join Global Relay, a leading provider of compliance software solutions, as we embark on an exciting journey to expand our footprint in the healthcare and life sciences industry. We're seeking a seasoned Senior Account Executive to drive sales growth and establish strong relationships with key decision-makers in this critical sector.
Our cutting-edge compliance software solutions are designed to help healthcare organizations and life sciences companies maintain regulatory compliance, ensure data security, and optimize legal and compliance operations.

- Consultative Selling & Solution Design:
- Conduct in-depth needs assessments with prospective clients to understand their challenges related to data archiving, eDiscovery, surveillance, and regulatory compliance.
- Provide expert consultation on how our software solutions can address their specific compliance requirements, streamline workflows, and mitigate risk.
- Build and maintain strong, long-term relationships with key decision-makers at healthcare organizations and life sciences companies.
- Industry Knowledge & Regulatory Expertise:
- Stay informed about the latest industry trends, regulations, and compliance standards (e.g., HIPAA, FDA regulations, 21 CFR Part 11, GxP, GDPR, DOJ) affecting the healthcare and life sciences sectors.
- Use your knowledge of the healthcare and life sciences industries to clearly articulate the benefits and value of compliance-focused archiving and surveillance solutions.
- Collaboration & Reporting:
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including marketing, customer success, and revenue operations, to align on sales strategies and customer needs.
- Provide regular updates on sales progress, pipeline status, customer feedback, and market trends to management.
- Maintain accurate and timely records of all sales activities, opportunities, and customer interactions in our Salesforce CRM tool.
About you:
- 7-10+ years of experience in sales, with a strong focus on compliance software solutions, preferably in the healthcare and life sciences industries.

- Exceptional consultative selling skills, with the ability to understand complex customer requirements and translate them into tailored software solutions.
- Strong understanding of regulatory compliance and guidance in the healthcare and life sciences sectors (e.g., HIPAA, FDA, 21 CFR Part 11, DOJ ECCP).
- Bachelor's degree in Business, Life Sciences, Healthcare Administration, Computer Science, Risk Management, or a related field.
- Knowledge of Salesforce, Zoom Info, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and Demandbase are preferred.
