Sales Enablement Manager

Why This Role Matters

As Sales Enablement Manager, you'll help service centers across EDP improve how they convert leads into customers by coaching managers, CSRs, and salespeople in the moments that matter most. Your work will directly influence revenue growth, create more consistent customer experiences, and help build a sales culture that scales across the organization.

This is a highly visible, field-based role where you'll work alongside leaders and frontline teams to identify what's working, fix what's not, and turn coaching into measurable business results.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first 90 days, you'll have built relationships with General Managers and team members across EDP service centers, established a regular coaching cadence, identified key conversion gaps using CRM and sales data, and implemented targeted coaching plans to improve performance. You'll be known as a trusted coach who helps leaders improve results, not just report on them.

• Begin conducting live call reviews and coaching sessions, while developing action plans for underperforming teams and individuals.
