Our tech-enabled, human-led model drives equity, efficiency, and impact—helping districts remove barriers to learning, one ride at a time.

At EverDriven, we do the right thing, work together, and never settle. Our team acts with integrity, ownership, and a shared purpose—to ensure every student has access to education through safe, reliable transportation.

The Role

EverDriven Account Executives don’t just sell — they lead. You’ll operate as a business owner within your territory, driving complex, consultative sales cycles that make a real impact on how districts move students safely and efficiently every day.  You will own the full customer lifecycle — leading consultative sales, RFPs, executive presentations, contracting processes, onboarding, and early account growth and renewal.
