Lighthouse

Account executive in hospitality

In short

This is a closing sales (Account Executive) role at Lighthouse, an AI platform for hotel commercial strategy, based in Barcelona on a hybrid basis. The job is outbound-heavy: owning a territory, cold prospecting, running an AI-first sales workflow, and converting single-product customers into full-platform deals using MEDDPICC. It requires 2–5 years of closing sales experience with SaaS exposure and working proficiency or fluency in Spanish, plus comfort engaging stakeholders from GMs up to the C-suite mostly remotely.

About Lighthouse
At Lighthouse, we're on a mission to revolutionize commercial strategy as hospitality's most powerful AI platform. We take the world's largest hotel data network and transform it into real-time intelligence that drives action. We don't just deliver insights; we empower businesses to make decisions that move revenue.
Responsibilities
•Own your territory and your number. Build and execute a strategic territory plan to generate a net-new pipeline.
•Maintain 3x pipeline coverage, forecast honestly, and take full accountability for your results. Your quota is your commitment.
•Cold, outbound prospecting into ideal customer profile accounts is the core of this role, not a supplement to inbound.
•Run an AI-first workflow: use our agents for account research, buying signals, sequencing and first-touch personalization, so your time goes into conversations rather than admin.
•Add Lighthouse Connect events and industry conferences on top. This is not an SDR-reliant role.
•Identify customers who use a single Lighthouse product, or a fraction of what they bought, and turn them into full-platform accounts. Run this as a sales cycle, with discovery, a business case and a close, not as an adoption program.
•Work with Customer Success on the handover so the account is set up to keep growing.
•Treat every opportunity as a platform deal. Qualify for the full scope early, bring in every stakeholder who has a say, and build the business case for the whole solution rather than settling for a trial or a single module.
•Protect pricing on value. Use MEDDPICC to qualify and advance opportunities.
•Use the AI Pre-Sales Agent to identify gaps before every major call. Advance deals through stage gates with evidence, not optimism.
•Leverage AI to make your days easier and focus on more selling time. Leverage the Enablement Agent for call prep, discovery frameworks, and positioning. Use the Coaching Agent to surface patterns in your pipeline and win rate. Push back on the tools when they're wrong — help make the system smarter.
•Understand the commercial challenges hotels face across pricing, distribution, and business intelligence.
•Position Lighthouse's full platform as the integrated solution that replaces fragmented point tools.
•Know the competitive landscape inside out and run value-based ROI conversations confidently.
•Most of your buyers will never meet you in person. Earn trust over video, phone and email through sharp preparation, clear follow-through and a point of view on their business.
•Partner with Product to share market feedback and influence the roadmap, and represent Lighthouse at industry events to build the brand and your network.
Requirements
•2–5 years in a closing sales role, SaaS experience is a must but hunger and skill matters more than industry tenure.
•A hunter by instinct. You prospect cold, you get past no, and you would rather build your own pipeline than wait for it.
•Working proficiency or fluency in Spanish.
•You think big-deal first. You have turned a small opening into a larger, multi-product sale, and you know how to qualify for full scope without stalling the deal.
•Self-directed, coachable, and driven to continuously improve. You seek feedback on your calls, your pipeline, and your positioning — and act on it within the next deal, not the next quarter.
•You treat AI tools as a core part of your selling motion, not a novelty. You adopt new tooling quickly and bend it to your style, and you expect AI to do your research and sequencing so your time goes into selling.
•Fantastic communicator. You build trust with people you have never met in person, over video and phone, from GMs to the C-suite, and you keep several stakeholders aligned through a longer cycle.
•Strong business acumen with the ability to sell on value, not price.
•Confident engaging stakeholders from GMs to C-suite.
•You want to win, and you like it when people notice. You celebrate your wins and your team's, you prospect when it would be easier not to, you follow up one more time, and you're not okay with a bad quarter.
Nice to have
•Experience with MEDDPICC or similar qualification frameworks is a plus, not a requirement. What matters is that you bring discipline and structure to how you run deals.
