Yes, the job title just says Sales.

This is for someone who is commercially hungry, loves talking to customers, and wants to sell a product that is genuinely changing how accounting firms work.

We’re deliberately keeping the title broad. You might be an Account Executive, BDM, Account Manager or Sales Manager. We care less about your current title than whether you can sell.

What matters more to us is how you sell.

Agentic AI for accounting firms, built by trusted operators who have processed over one million jobs and ledgers. Accounting firms have run on manual processes, fragmented tools and traditional outsourcing for decades. Zato changes that.

Our platform centralises and automates the actual end-to-end work: questionnaires, GL scrutiny, reconciliations, workpapers, query management, review and sign-off. Zato integrates directly with the IRD, Xero, FYI, SharePoint, and other systems used by accounting firms, with more on the way.

We already have tens of thousands of ledgers live on the platform and are scaling quickly across New Zealand and Australia.

Your job is simple

Talk to accounting firms. Understand what they need. Show them Zato properly. Win business.

You’ll spend most of your time speaking directly to accounting firms - partners, directors, managers and other decision-makers.

You’ll run demos, follow up opportunities, build relationships, help firms understand the value of Zato, and move deals through to a commercial decision.

You’ll work closely with our product, implementation and leadership teams, but your focus is sales.

We want more people in the business whose job is to go out and win.
