  • Refine ICP and target-account playbooks; drive expansion into new horizontals and customer segments.

  • Partner with the Senior VP Client Delivery on smooth handoffs and post-sale outcomes, and with the VP Solutions on deal strategy and pre-sales resourcing.

  • Work with Revenue leadership and Operations on data-driven forecasting, headcount, and sales system optimization.

  • Represent the voice of the customer and field insights to executive leadership and Product.

  • Optimize sales processes, methodology (e.g., MEDDPICC), and CRM hygiene; leverage modern AI-enabled sales tools to maximize throughput.

  • Report on key KPIs including win rate, ACV, sales cycle length, and pipeline coverage.

Requirements

  • 15+ years of progressive B2B sales experience, with 5+ years in a senior executive leadership role (VP or above) in a high-growth SaaS or technology environment.

  • Proven track record building and scaling global sales teams and consistently achieving or exceeding $50M+ ARR targets.

  • Extensive experience managing complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals with 6–7 figure contract values across global, multicultural markets.
