Account Executive - US based

What's Red Points all about?

Red Points protects your brand and content in the digital environment. We are able to do this through our proprietary technology which employs machine learning algorithms to scan the internet and identify all violations and infringements. We then employ our technical and legal expertise to ensure that all infringing data is removed or deindexed. Finally, we provide full visibility and actionable intelligence to our clients through our real-time reporting tool.

Our protection covers the entire digital spectrum and we are constantly improving our service to keep pace with the quickly evolving landscape of digital piracy. As a result, we are the preferred brand protection partner for some of the leading global brands and content owners in the sporting, entertainment, fashion, editorial, and software industries, and we've now been tagged as "one of Europe's hottest tech companies"​ by Wired.

Are you a top-performing salesperson? Are you a hunter? Do you love the tech/software world and are you looking for an opportunity to sell a hot technology product that brings true value to customers with unlimited income potential?  If so, we're interested in speaking with you!
