About Onetrace 🚀 — Great products start with great people. Our relentless focus on user experience has been the cornerstone of our growth, helping us become the market-leading software for fire protection subcontractors across the UK. We’ve grown by staying obsessed with building software that actually works for the subcontractors on the ground; fast, intuitive, and simple to use. We’re now gearing up for our next chapter - expanding into new trades and taking Onetrace global. We’re bootstrapped, profitable, and driven by a clear mission: to lead the digital transformation for subcontractors, one trade at a time. Come be part of a team that’s smart, ambitious, and comfortable in the chaos of growth - where your ideas matter, and your work shapes what comes next.

Help us build the future of Construction Tech💪 We’re on the lookout for a driven Account Executive to join us at Onetrace, right as we enter an exciting new chapter following our rebrand and bold growth plans. In this role, you’ll play a key part in shaping our Business Development strategy—driving our efforts to bring our platform to new customers across the construction space.

Diversity 🫶 Onetrace is committed to diversity in the workplace and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. If you require a reasonable adjustment, please contact us. All information will be kept confidential and will only be used for applying a reasonable adjustment.

Hybrid guidelines 🚆 We operate a hybrid working model, with a minimum expectation of 3 days per week in the office. This is a core part of how the role works and isn’t something we’re flexible on. Whilst we’re open to conversations about flexibility and individual circumstances, we also want to be realistic about sustainability. Regular long commutes are unlikely to be workable long term, so this will be taken into consideration during the application process.

🐶 Please note that our office is a dog‑friendly environment. Candidates should be aware that dogs are present in the workplace, which may include shared spaces. If you have allergies or concerns, please let us know in advance.
