About The RoleEngine is adding a Sr. Manager, Account Directors to our Sales Org. In this role, you'll lead a team of quota-carrying, executive-facing Account Directors responsible for driving expansion revenue across our customer base. Our ADs are the closers - they find the expansion opportunity, build the commercial case, multithread into VP+ stakeholders, and close. As a senior leader, you'll set the standard for pipeline discipline, exec access, and deal execution across the team, coach your ADs to consistently hit quota, and operate as a force multiplier for the broader sales org - shaping territory strategy, hiring plans, and the expansion motion itself. You'll also play a key customer-facing role as executive sponsor on your team's highest-value opportunities, and you'll develop the next generation of frontline sales leaders at Engine.
Your MissionAs part of the Engine team, you'll play a vital role in an environment where innovation meets collaboration. Here's what you'll take charge of:
- Hire, coach, and develop a team of quota-carrying Account Directors - and identify, mentor, and grow the next wave of frontline sales leaders on your bench
- Own team quota attainment and forecast accuracy - leadership should be able to trust your number every single week
- Enforce the pipeline discipline that separates the ADs who hit from the ones who don't: no deal without a next step, and any account 6+ months in the book has an active opportunity or the AD hasn't done the discovery yet
- Coach ADs on real discovery, multithreading, exec QBRs, and building buying coalitions that sell Engine internally without the AD in the room
- Serve as executive sponsor on your team's highest-value expansion opportunities and strategic accounts, and personally engage at the VP+ level to unlock and close them
- Partner with sales leadership on territory design, quota setting, headcount planning, and the operating cadence for the expansion motion
- Partner with AM leadership and Sales Ops to make the pod work - signal quality from AMs, feedback loops, and pod NRR are shared outcomes
- Leverage data to inspect pipeline health, win rates, deal size, and rep-level performance; intervene early and specifically
- Serve as a thought leader, customer advocate, and coach to your team and to the executives they sell into
- Build a culture of preparation, ruthless pipeline honesty, and relentless deal advancement
- Collaborate cross-functionally with AM, SA, Sales Ops, Marketing, Product, and Finance to remove friction from expansion motions and align on account strategy
