About Aphex
At Aphex (https://www.aphex.co/), we believe the best way to improve construction delivery is to give people the tools and time to do their jobs. That's why we're on a mission to transform how major projects plan, communicate and track their work. Forget the endless spreadsheets, whiteboards, and outdated systems—our tools bring clarity and visibility to every corner of the project, empowering anyone on site to plan and communicate with ease.
Our customers are the industry's giants—building the tunnels, roads, bridges, and skyscrapers that define our cities. Our users are the engineers and project managers who breathe life into these projects. We're at an exhilarating phase of our journey. Since launching in the UK in 2019, our platform has become the dominant solution for infrastructure and major construction projects across the UK. We've also successfully launched and captured that same position in Australia and New Zealand, with most of these three countries' infrastructure projects now operating on Aphex. Building on this success, we're actively targeting expansion into new markets, including Europe, North America and Asia, creating an incredibly exciting opportunity for someone to join at this pivotal moment. We've found strong product-market fit, proven our ability to scale internationally, and are now focused on building out our go-to-market team and expanding our product footprint.
Join us as we tackle an industry contributing to around 10% of global GDP, yet has struggled with productivity gains. It's a massive challenge, and we need your expertise.

This Account Executive role is perfectly suited for someone ambitious and seeking a changing career trajectory where they can be the architect of their own success.
