As a founding Strategic Account Executive for Iberia, you will own 8-12 of the largest strategic accounts across Spain and/or Portugal — IBEX35-caliber banking, telco, insurance, utilities, and travel enterprises. You'll run complex, multi-level sales cycles from 6 to 18 months, build both the business case and the technical win alongside your Solutions Consultant, and drive long-term land-and-expand strategy while continuing to bring in new logos.
As part of the founding Iberia team, you'll work alongside a 10-person Madrid-based org (SDR, SC, and Customer Success) and help shape the region's go-to-market strategy from the ground up.
We offer a comprehensive and people-first benefits package to support you at work and in life:
Cresta’s approach to compensation is simple: recognize impact, reward excellence, and invest in our people. We offer competitive, location-based pay that reflects the market and what each individual brings to the table.
The posted base salary range represents what we expect to pay for this role in a given location. Final offers are shaped by factors like experience, skills, education, and geography. In addition to base pay, total compensation includes equity and a comprehensive benefits package for you and your family.
This role is variable target compensation eligible. There is potential to exceed target earnings when goals are surpassed.
We have noticed a rise in recruiting impersonations across the industry, where scammers attempt to access candidates' personal and financial information through fake interviews and offers. All Cresta recruiting email communications will always come from the @cresta.ai domain. Any outreach claiming to be from Cresta via other sources should be ignored. If you are uncertain whether you have been contacted by an official Cresta employee, reach out to recruiting@cresta.ai

Cresta runs a Flexible Hybrid model, so remote eligibility is set per role rather than company-wide — about 62% of its open roles are fully remote. Its careers page says its "hybrid model is built for flexibility," with some roles carrying in-office expectations while many are fully remote. Each posting is tagged with its location and work arrangement, so check the tag on the specific job before you apply.
Cresta leans toward synchronous, real-time collaboration rather than an async-first setup. Its careers page emphasizes fast-paced execution and operating principles like "patient in strategy, impatient in execution," and points to live rituals such as customer spotlights and brainstorming. Expect meaningful overlap with your team's working hours even in fully remote roles.
Cresta offers a choice of medical, dental, and vision plans; flexible time off that adapts to your location; and inclusive paid parental leave. Remote and hybrid employees get workspace support plus access to cutting-edge AI tooling, and equity (RSUs) is part of the package. Continuous learning is supported through weekly lunch-and-learns, guest speakers, and hackathons.
Cresta does not publish standardized salary bands, so compensation is discussed during the hiring process and varies by role and location. Equity is granted as RSUs on a standard four-year schedule: 25% vests after your first year, then monthly over the remaining three years.
Cresta is mission-driven and fast-paced, organized around operating principles such as "Mission is the boss," "Do too much," and "Have the courage to be disliked." Employees describe high ownership and unusual "talent density." It tends to suit people who want hands-on, high-impact work and are comfortable with directness and rapid execution.
Real outreach comes only from a Cresta recruiter using an @cresta.ai email address. Cresta says it will never text you about interviews or offers, and any employment inquiry from a non-cresta.ai address should be treated as spam. If you think you've been targeted by a hiring scam, Cresta encourages reporting it to the FBI's IC3.
