About the Role:

Vercel's sales team is filled with hardworking, deeply technical people spanning a range of business functions to help create a new category. We are a fast-growing organization with a strong preference to grow team members and promote from within.

As a Majors Enterprise Sales Manager based in New York City, you will build and lead a New York-based Majors enterprise team within the AMER market. This is a top hiring priority for our sales organization and a foundational role in establishing sales leadership and sales culture in our new New York office. You'll be a hands-on leader and a talent magnet - someone who owns their own sourcing, builds a winning team from the ground up, and coaches AEs through complex, high-value enterprise deals.

If you're based within a pre-determined commuting distance of our New York City office, the role includes in-office anchor days on Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.
What You Will Do:
  • Build and lead a New York-based Majors enterprise team within the AMER market
  • Recruit, hire, and train a winning team - owning your own sourcing and acting as a talent magnet
  • Provide support and guidance to direct reports by participating and leading in client and prospect meetings, and engaging other corporate resources as required
  • Coach direct reports on strategies to drive enterprise sales wins and navigate complex 6-7 figure deals across legal, procurement, and security
  • Deliver accurate reporting on sales activity and forecasting to senior sales management
  • Consistently monitor the sales activity of the team and track results
  • Actively lead and monitor demand generation and outbound activities
  • Lead initiatives to drive customer awareness and engagement, and develop and execute successful sales campaigns
  • Successfully manage significant client escalations and issues
  • Help establish sales leadership and sales culture in the new New York office
About You:
  • 3+ years of enterprise sales leadership experience
  • Heavy enterprise selling background, closing 6-7 figure deals
  • A proven recruiter who draws talent and builds their own team
  • Experience selling technical products to technical buyers and developers
  • Track record of success and quota attainment
  • Hands-on mentality - does more than delegate, and is willing to roll up their sleeves and put in the work
  • Able to drive process through legal, procurement, and security
  • Coachable, collaborative, and self-guided, with the ability to accelerate and take ownership in a rapidly growing environment
Bonus If You:
  • Have an enterprise pedigree from a high-growth, best-in-class SaaS organization
  • Have developer tools / web infrastructure sales experience
  • Have an established network of technology companies
  • Have deep roots in the local enterprise sales scene
Benefits:
  • Competitive compensation package, including equity.
  • Inclusive Healthcare Package.
  • Learn and Grow - we provide mentorship and send you to events that help you build your network and skills.
  • Flexible Time Off.
  • We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.

The NYC range for this role is $380,000-$430,000 OTE. Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of NYC may be adjusted based on employee location. The total compensation package may include benefits, equity-based compensation, and eligibility for a company bonus or variable pay program depending on the role. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.
