The Opportunity :

\n

As a Director of Sales at our client, you’ll be at the forefront of our growth strategy, leading a hybrid team responsible for both net-new customer acquisition and expansion within existing accounts.

\n

You’ll coach, inspire, and execute. Your playbook combines process, performance, and people, and you know how to hit a number without losing the human touch. If you’re a hands-on leader who thrives in a high-growth SaaS environment and knows what it takes to turn potential into performance—this is your moment. Please note that if coaching is not at your core, this role is likely not for you.

What You’ll Do:

\n

\n
• Work as a member of the sales leadership team (Directors, Managers) to enhance our sales strategy, GTM Motion, sales practices, and more. This isn’t a role where you will only be a tactical executor, you’ll help shape our sales motion
\n
• Develop a winning team including recruiting, hiring, training/onboarding, retention and coaching. Our client is a performance driven sales culture that demands excellence from our leaders and sales team.
\n
• Own your number, end to end, without making excuses. As the leader of a team of 5-7 account executives, you will take ownership of pipeline development, revenue, new strategies, and more.
\n
• Execute a comprehensive coaching program. Our client thinks about coaching not just at the deal level, but at the skill level. You’ll be spending most of your days coaching sales reps on their calls, deals, and skills to increase their performance (and revenue)
\n
• Take ownership in the details. You will take passion in pride in understanding every detail of the sales process. You’ll learn our persona, product, messaging, and will be able to sell as well or better than any member of your team.
\n
• Actively participate and attend customer calls on a weekly basis to support, grow, and close new logo and expansion deals
\n
• Own pipeline management, forecasting, and performance metrics to consistently exceed quota. Forecasting should be something you take pride in and that you have developed a strategy for.

• Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Customer Success, Product, and Support to align GTM efforts.
