Chief of Staff - VP of Sales

GenesisX builds and runs commerce programs for CPG brands and their agencies: retailer activation programs with guaranteed delivery, advanced creative, retail media creative programs, and the media that carries them. The Chief of Staff is the force multiplier for one of our two VP of Sales and Business Development. You are the day to day face of GenesisX to a book of brand and agency clients. You own every program from RFP to recap, you know each client's plans before they're announced, and you bring the VP into the room at the moments that grow and close business. This is a defined growth role with a path from account leadership into a full sales seat with a book of your own. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to join one of the most innovative companies in marketing technology. The Client Relationship Be the first call for your accounts. Run the regular check-ins; know each client's planning calendar, budget cycle, retailer priorities and decision-makers. Turn what you learn into planning intelligence that the VP can act on: who is deciding what, when, with what budget. Set the meetings. Identify where a top-to-top, a capabilities session or a pitch belongs, and get the VP into it. Program Management, RFP to Recap Brief intake and RFP/proposal builds - with the operations team on media costs and delivery assumptions, with production on creative scope. Nothing leaves without a verified cost basis. SOW alignment, kickoff, and alignment of the campaign to the client's objective through development and flight. In-flight check-ins with the client. Ownership of the recap narrative. Own creative-only and AI Studio engagements end to end: brief intake, production coordination with the studio, revision rounds, and on-time delivery, whether or not media is attached. Account Growth An account plan for every client: where the brand-level work is, which categories and sister brands are adjacent, what the expansion path looks like. Translate GenesisX products into the client's need: activation programs, AI Studio creative, retail-media creative programs - in tailored POVs, not generic decks. Contribute to pitches from year one; lead them by year two. How You Will be Measured Retention and expansion revenue on your accounts Win-rate contribution on the RFPs and proposals you build On-time, on-objective program delivery Quality and timeliness of planning intel Copper accuracy and forecast reliability What We Are Looking For 3–6 years in agency account management, shopper/retail media, or CPG sales support; you've run programs for CPG brands and know how their planning cycles work Working knowledge of retail media networks (Walmart Connect, Sam's MAP, Roundel, Kroger Precision Marketing, Albertsons Media Collective, Instacart) and of how brands and their agencies buy Strong writer and presenter; comfortable in front of a director-level client without a script Commercial instinct: you notice the expansion opportunity and you name it Organized enough to run six programs at once without a recap slipping Fluent with GenAI tools in your own workflow; curious about AI-produced creative rather than threatened by it Wants to sell, and is willing to earn the seat
