What comes after senior account executive?

Promotions beyond senior account executives typically involve working with high-profile clients on a case-by-case basis, but most of their time is spent improving the workflow of their company.

Most vice presidents of business development must work within their field for 15 to 20 years before being eligible for this role.

This is for a good reason; a vice president of business development needs to be business smart and have the domain knowledge to be able to structure all transactions in the ways that will protect, promote, and enable your company's interests and profits. Also, they should be experts at negotiating complex agreements across multiple domains.

To become a chief officer of operations (COO) also requires around ten to 15 years of industry experience, some of which is spent in a senior role such as an account executive or management role.

COO is a challenging, high-powered position that requires a combination of business acumen, leadership skills, and dedication to your industry. It is also an exciting career option for senior account executives.
