Question

Is an Account Manager = Account Executive or are they different?

Answer 1

Those are new age inflated titles for what used to be called Sales Manager & Salesman.

I think with more women working now in sales, there was a need to make the title gender neutral > just like a letter carrier used to the the postman.

Though, they might be the same in a smaller company > those who have less layers of bureaucracy.
