We’ve raised $17.8 million in Series A funding led by Google Ventures and joined by Khosla Ventures. They believe in our vision that the law should be accessible to everyone, and this is where your skills will influence how thousands of organisations draft and collaborate on legal documents, helping them save millions in fees and hours of time.

This is what you’ll be doing

As a Head of Sales at Genie AI you’ll be joining us in a dynamic stage of our growth so you’ll face lots of different challenges. Doing Sales for an AI product is a fascinating challenge, so be prepared to adapt your skillset! Below is what we need you to do, it’s up to you on the how:

• Sales leadership: Build and scale our sales team, processes, and pipeline management from the ground up
• Go-to-market strategy: Define and execute our sales strategy across markets
• Customer acquisition: Drive outbound and inbound sales opportunities, moving prospects from interest to closed deals
• Revenue growth: Own targets, forecasting, and reporting, ensuring sustainable ARR growth
• Partnership building: Establish and nurture strategic relationships
• Sales enablement: Work with Marketing and Product to refine positioning, pricing, and collateral that accelerates deal velocity.

This is how we’ll set you up for success and the outcomes we expect from you

Over your first 90 days you can expect us to help point you in the right direction to set you up for success. During the interview process we can talk you through a high level overview of your 90 day plan.
