Overview

This role is to be hired remotely

Responsibilities What you’ll do:
  • Coach and develop a team of Strategic Account Executives to consistently hit and exceed their monthly and quarterly revenue targets.

  • Master the "Player-Coach" balance, jumping into high-stakes demos and negotiations to help your team close strategic opportunities.

  • Institutionalize the sales process, ensuring the team maintains rigorous pipeline discipline, accurate forecasting, and CRM hygiene.

  • Analyze performance data to identify bottlenecks in the sales funnel and implement tactical coaching plans for underperforming reps.

  • Drive Go-To-Market (GTM) improvements by synthesizing frontline customer feedback into actionable insights for Product and Marketing teams.

  • Build a culture of continuous learning, leading regular film reviews (call coaching), role-plays, and value-centric sales training.

  • Recruit and onboard top-tier talent, scaling the team while maintaining a high bar for excellence and culture fit.

You’re the kind of person who:
  • Finds more joy in your team’s win than your own.

  • Is a systems thinker—you don’t just solve a problem once; you build a process so it doesn't happen again.

  • Leads by example, demonstrating the same grit, resourcefulness, and "bias for action" you expect from your team.

  • Can deliver radical candor—you provide direct, empathetic feedback that helps people grow.

  • Thrives in ambiguity, acting as a shock absorber for your team during rapid organizational changes.

  • Is data-informed but people-driven, using metrics to guide conversations without losing sight of the human element of management.

  • Possesses high emotional intelligence (EQ), navigating complex internal stakeholders and team dynamics with ease.

Qualifications What we’re looking for:
  • 5+ years of experience of B2B SaaS sales experience, with at least 2-4 years in a leadership or formal mentorship capacity.

  • A proven track record of success, having consistently exceeded quotas as an individual contributor in an SMB or Mid-Market environment.

  • Experience in complex sales cycles, comfortable managing teams with more complex sales cycles

  • Experience navigating pilots/proof of concepts with prospects.

  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to command a room.

  • Deep familiarity with modern sales stacks (e.g., Salesforce, Gong, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, etc.).

Why you’ll love working here:
  • You’ll be part of a high-performing leadership team that values collaboration, learning, and execution.

  • High-impact ownership—you aren't just a cog in the wheel; you are the architect of your team's success.

  • A culture that prizes mastery, ownership, and curiosity.
