What Your Experience Will Be
As Director of Sales, US, you’ll run point on our entire Account Executive team during a pivotal stretch: leading the day-to-day of pipeline, forecasting, coaching, and deal support while we scale up our SMB team. You will lead and scale a team of up to 10 Account Executives, driving consistent execution while elevating the maturity of our go-to-market motion. You’ll report directly to the Head of Revenue, a direct line that gives you real decision-making authority.
This role is both strategic and hands-on. Day to day, you’re running deal reviews and forecast calls with every AE, coaching reps through their pipeline, and making the judgment calls a sales team needs in real time. You’ll work closely with the CX/Revenue team to keep the handoff from closed-won to onboarding clean, and collaborate with the Product and Marketing teams to maintain a healthy feedback loop on the SMB sales motion.
You will be responsible not just for hitting the number, but for building a repeatable, scalable sales engine, establishing standards, reinforcing best practices, and developing future sales leaders.
