About the Team
On the Outside Account Development team, we expand on existing DoorDash partnerships while identifying opportunities for further engagement, growth, and performance on our platform. We learn more about each merchant's business and growth goals and build a path to increased revenue, stronger operational performance, and long-term ROI — all while accommodating the diverse and rapidly evolving needs of our partners.
About the Role
We're looking for outside sales executives to join us as Strategic Account Development Executives. In this role, you'll connect existing merchant partners with new and powerful tools across DoorDash Marketplace, our flagship suite of products that helps merchants get discovered, drive orders, optimize operations, and grow sustainably.
You will ensure partnership terms make sense for both DoorDash and the merchant while driving adoption of high-impact Marketplace solutions — including menu optimization, promotions, Sponsored Listings, Offers, store page enhancements, and additional merchandising tools that improve conversion. You will ensure sustained success and increased sales across your book of business. You will report to the Manager of Strategic Account Development in our Outside Sales organization. Once our offices reopen, we expect this role to be flexible with some time in-office (1–2 days/week), in the field (up to 50%), and working from home.
Historical performance including but not limited to attainment and optimization will be considered during the selection process.
You're excited about this opportunity because you will…

Help merchants improve their presence on Marketplace through photo enhancements, menu structure, item descriptions, and feature adoption to increase search ranking and customer engagement. - Operational tools & insights

Expand and Develop Strategic Partnerships
- Run your end-to-end sales process with advanced discovery, consultative selling, and complex pipeline management.

- Close partners on upgrades, upsells, and cross-sells across Marketplace, including marketing packages, merchandising visibility, and operational enhancements.
- Use internal data and unit economics to forecast revenue growth and explain how Marketplace solutions improve sales, brand perception, and customer acquisition.
- Build internal guides for Marketplace selling motions and best practices to scale the team's impact.
- Collaborate with regional Strategic Partner Managers (5+ at a time) to close and renegotiate Marketplace-centered sales terms.
- Travel across your region (up to 40%), with flexible scheduling and hybrid work options.
We're excited about you because…
- You have 5+ years of sales experience, including at least 3+ years selling to an existing client base (upsell, cross-sell, promotions, expansions).
- You have 3+ years of B2B and SaaS sales experience.
- You have led an outside sales end-to-end cycle, ideally within a product-driven or marketplace environment.
- You align partners while managing project timelines and expectations, or bring related project management experience.

Strategic Account Manager Jobs in Los Angeles: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a strategic account manager job in Los Angeles?
Focus on sectors that dominate LA hiring: enterprise SaaS, entertainment technology, digital media, and healthcare services. Companies in Playa Vista and Century City frequently hire strategic account managers with demonstrated revenue growth experience. A background managing complex, multi-stakeholder deals and fluency with CRM platforms gives candidates a clear edge in this market. Networking within LA's tech and media startup communities also opens doors that cold applications rarely do.
Which companies hire strategic account managers in Los Angeles?
Companies currently hiring strategic account managers in Los Angeles include SentiLink, Crexi, and DoorDash, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. LA's mix of legacy media conglomerates, fast-growing SaaS firms, and healthcare networks means strategic account manager openings appear across employer types and sizes throughout the metro.
Are there remote strategic account manager jobs in Los Angeles?
Yes, though it depends on the sector: strategic account management often requires in-person client meetings, but planning, reporting, and internal coordination are routinely done remotely. About 46% of strategic account manager openings tied to Los Angeles are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, with the highest remote share found in SaaS and digital advertising roles. Field-facing enterprise accounts in healthcare and logistics tend to require more on-site presence.
How can I get a strategic account manager job in Los Angeles with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path in Los Angeles is moving up from an account coordinator or inside sales role at a mid-size tech or media company, where quota attainment and client retention metrics become your proof of readiness. LA-based SaaS startups and digital advertising agencies frequently promote from within and hire entry-level account executives who can grow into strategic roles. Building a portfolio of upsell wins and renewal data strengthens any application at that level.
Which industries hire the most strategic account managers in Los Angeles?
Los Angeles strategic account manager roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Consulting & Professional Services, and Electronics & Hardware, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. LA's outsized presence in entertainment technology, healthcare, and enterprise software creates sustained demand for account managers who can handle long sales cycles and high-value contracts across those verticals.
