• Supporting strategic deals and acting as a thought partner in late-stage cycles.
• Partnering with Sales Enablement to improve onboarding, training, and ramp time.
• Maintaining a team culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous learning.

What You Need to Get the Job Done:

• 5+ years of SaaS sales management experience with a strong focus on closing new business.
• 2+ years of direct outbound AE leadership experience with ownership over quota-carrying sellers.
• Proven track record of leading teams that consistently meet or exceed new logo targets.
• Deep knowledge of outbound closing motions and solution-based selling strategies.

• Fluency in CRM tools such as Salesforce, and familiarity with sales engagement platforms.
• Excellent forecasting ability and a data-driven approach to team performance.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with executive presence.
• High adaptability, strong prioritization skills, and a calm, confident demeanor in high-stakes moments.
• You’re available to attend in-office training during the initial onboarding period (first two weeks) to support ramp and early success.

What Will Make Us REALLY Love You:

• Experience scaling outbound AE teams in a high-growth SaaS environment.
• Ability to inspire and motivate high-performing sellers through coaching and recognition.
• Familiarity with MEDDIC, Challenger, or other structured sales frameworks.
• A thoughtful, methodical approach to team development and performance management.
