About the role

Why work at Higgsfield AI?

Higgsfield AI is the fastest-scaling generative AI company in history, hitting $1B in annual revenue run rate, 30M+ users worldwide, 6M+ generations per day, and powering 390 of Fortune 500 brands.

We're building at the absolute frontier of AI-powered video creation and next-generation creative tools. Joining Higgsfield means becoming part of a high-impact team shaping the future of AI-native experiences, at a company that isn't just moving fast, but rewriting what fast looks like.

About the Role

We're looking for an Account Executive or Senior Account Executive to own and grow Higgsfield's relationships across the agency ecosystem.

You'll work with leading creative, advertising, media, and digital agencies to bring generative AI into real-world creative workflows — from campaign development and content production to scaled creative experimentation.

This role is ideal for a commercially driven seller who understands how agencies operate, knows how to build relationships with creative and business leaders, and is excited about defining an entirely new category of technology.

We're open to hiring this role at the Account Executive or Senior Account Executive level based on experience and track record.

What You'll Do

  • Own the full sales cycle across agency accounts, from prospecting and initial engagement through negotiation and close.

  • Build relationships with senior leaders across creative, production, innovation, strategy, media, and technology teams.

  • Develop strategic relationships with major agency groups and their individual agencies.

  • Identify opportunities to embed Higgsfield into agency workflows and client engagements.

  • Navigate complex organizations with multiple stakeholders, business units, and client relationships.

  • Build pipeline through outbound prospecting, industry relationships, events, partnerships, and inbound opportunities.

  • Develop account strategies that expand initial adoption into broader agency relationships.

  • Partner closely with Product and Marketing to translate agency feedback into product and GTM opportunities.

  • Maintain strong pipeline management, forecasting, and CRM discipline.

  • Help define Higgsfield's broader agency sales strategy and playbook as we scale.

What We're Looking For

  • 5+ years of B2B sales, partnerships, or business development experience, with deeper experience expected at the Senior AE level.

  • Strong understanding of the advertising and agency ecosystem.

  • Experience selling technology, platforms, or solutions into agencies or creative organizations.

  • Demonstrated ability to own and close complex, high-value commercial relationships.

  • Strong network across creative, advertising, media, production, or agency leadership is a plus.

  • Ability to communicate effectively with both creative leaders and commercial and technical stakeholders.

  • Strong executive presence, relationship-building skills, and commercial judgment.

  • Comfortable operating with ambiguity and helping build a sales motion rather than simply inheriting one.

  • Highly proactive, entrepreneurial, and motivated by revenue ownership.

  • Genuine excitement about generative AI and how it will transform advertising and creative production.

Compensation & Benefits

  • We offer a competitive and thoughtfully structured compensation package designed to align with impact, experience, and long-term growth.

  • Base Salary: The anticipated salary range for this role is $125,000 - $220,000 depending on experience, skills, scope, and location.

  • Equity: In addition to cash compensation, employees are eligible to participate in the company’s stock option program and share in Higgsfield’s long-term growth.

  • Benefits: We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employees professionally and personally, including medical, dental, and vision insurance, a competitive 401(k) retirement plan with company matching, and additional benefits and perks.

  • The opportunity to work on ambitious AI products alongside a highly experienced, fast-moving, and international team.

  • Significant ownership, direct impact, and opportunities for professional growth as the company scales.

This is a fully remote role in NY or LA with occasional business travel to our San Francisco office required for team meetings, planning sessions, company events, and other in-person collaboration. If you are based in San Francisco, it is a hybrid role. Team members are expected to be available during agreed working hours and maintain sufficient overlap with the relevant team’s time zone. While we work remotely, we value active communication, responsiveness, and close collaboration across teams.

Higgsfield AI is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive team and do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic.
