• Hire and scale the team significantly over the next 6 months while setting clear performance expectations and reinforcing a strong accountability culture
• Improve existing systems of coaching, inspection, and manager enablement to ensure AE consistency and execution as we scale the team
• Implement structured operating cadences and dashboards to improve forecast accuracy, deal quality, and pipeline coverage
• Drive territory planning, pipeline discipline, and executional rigor across a fast-paced, dynamic sales environment
• Partner cross-functionally with RevOps, Enablement, and Product to identify blockers and build scalable systems
• Participate in key deals, strategic planning reviews, and hiring processes to elevate performance across levels
• Operate as a hands-on, pragmatic leader who brings clarity, urgency, and a bias for action
  
  

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience managing sales managers (second-line leadership), ideally in SaaS or high-growth B2B environments
• Deep familiarity with Commercial segment sales (50–250 employees), outbound motions, and high-velocity sales cycles
• Proven success scaling teams and building systems that improve manager performance and AE accountability
• Strong track record in driving forecast accuracy and pipeline inspection through operating cadences and tools
• Highly analytical and organized; excels at decision-making under pressure with limited centralized support
• Strong communicator who influences through clarity, structure, and results
• Operates with high ownership and urgency, with humility and a team-first mindset
