Enterprise Account Executive, APAC

THE MARKET MOMENT

The way the world accounts for, trades, and acts on environmental impact is being rebuilt from the ground up - and Patch is the platform scaling unified climate action at the center of it.

We move hundreds of millions of dollars annually to the world's most credible climate and environmental projects. Our platform connects Fortune 500 sustainability commitments to the projects and commodities that fulfill them: carbon removal, nature-based solutions, sustainable aviation fuel, renewable energy certificates, and more.

Think Bloomberg for environmental markets. Think Stripe for climate finance. That's the category we're building.

If you've been watching AI-native companies redefine how markets work and want to do the same thing in climate - Patch is that bet. Our enterprise customers are receiving value in cost savings, risk mitigation, and program effectiveness. There are more use cases to build and more customers to earn, plus the equity story still has its best chapters ahead.

WHY THIS ROLE, WHY NOW

Environmental markets are entering their most consequential decade, and APAC - Japan in particular - is one of its most important and fastest-moving frontiers. Regulatory momentum (Japan's GX League and emerging compliance schemes, regional carbon pricing, and tightening corporate disclosure), surging power demand, net-zero commitments from the region's largest corporates, and growing supply constraints for high-integrity environmental commodities are creating structural, durable enterprise demand - not a trend cycle.

We're hiring our first Enterprise Account Executive in APAC to plant Patch's flag in the region. It's a 0-to-1, category-creation, market-making role. You'll own a revenue number and be measured on closed business, while building the market that generates it. You'll be the Patch ambassador on the ground, working hand-in-hand with the APAC GM to land our first lighthouse deals and build the commercial foundation for a major regional hub. If you're a closer who's also a builder - someone who wants to own a number and open a market rather than inherit a territory - this is the seat.

WHAT YOU'LL OWN

You will own every aspect of Patch's commercial efforts in your territory: full-cycle enterprise deals with the region's largest buyers - from cold outreach and deep discovery through multi-stakeholder negotiation, close, and expansion. You'll build Patch's reputation as the most trusted partner in environmental markets across the region - not just a vendor - with a particular focus on the Japanese market.

Day-to-day, you'll:

- Build and own a qualified enterprise pipeline across APAC through disciplined prospecting, your own network, referrals, events, and strategic outreach - creating deal flow where none existed before

- Run multi-threaded deals into large APAC enterprises and Japanese trading houses (sōgō shōsha), spanning sustainability leadership, finance, procurement, trading desks, and legal - navigating complex, consensus-driven buying committees with confidence and cultural fluency

- Lead deep discovery that uncovers not just stated needs but strategic pressures, organizational dynamics, and commitment gaps unique to each market

- Serve as a trusted advisor to your accounts, bringing market intelligence on voluntary and compliance carbon markets and corporate climate claims that goes beyond the product pitch

- Partner closely with the APAC GM and with Supply, Climate, Marketing, Product, and Engineering to shape how Patch delivers, goes to market, and what we build for the region next

- Represent Patch at marquee regional and Patch-hosted events, building relationships that compound over time and establishing Patch as a recognized name in APAC environmental markets

- Feed regional insight back into the company - informing localization, supply strategy, and product priorities for APAC

- Work in a modern, AI-native sales environment: Salesforce, Gong, Dust AI, Asana, Slack, and a team obsessed with workflow efficiency
