This is a full-lifecycle enterprise sales role. You'll be responsible for opening doors at some of the most recognizable brands in the world, landing new business, and expanding those relationships within your first year.

  • Multithread across marketing, design, product, and executive stakeholders to increase deal size and durability
  • Lead consultative, value-driven sales cycles tied to clear business outcomes
  • Partner cross-functionally (SDRs, Marketing, Product, CS) to refine messaging and influence GTM strategy, especially for our AI offering
  • Run compelling demos and pilots that accelerate buying decisions
  • Navigate complex enterprise procurement and negotiation processes
  • Maintain strong pipeline discipline and deliver accurate forecasts
  • Act as the voice of the customer to influence product and positioning
Practical stuff we anticipate you having
  • 3-7+ years of quota-carrying SaaS sales experience, including selling into enterprise organizations
  • Proven success creating pipeline and closing net-new business
  • Experience breaking into new accounts and navigating complex, multi-stakeholder organizations
  • Strong ability to build and execute territory plans, partnering with an SDR to map accounts and generate pipeline
  • Track record of running full-cycle, consultative sales motions from first touch through close
  • Experience increasing deal size through multithreading and strategic selling
  • Comfortable selling new or emerging products (bonus if AI or category-defining)
  • Familiarity with CRM tools like Salesforce or HubSpot
  • Experience selling marketing, creative, or adjacent technology preferred
  • AI-forward in your workflow-using AI tools to improve prospecting, personalization, and efficiency
  • High ownership mindset with the ability to operate autonomously
Key Things to Know
