Do you want to play a key role in driving sales growth and shaping how we sell in one of Sweden’s largest gym chains?
On behalf of SATS, we are looking for a strong and commercially driven Sales Manager to lead and develop the sales organization in Sweden. You will set the Swedish sales agenda and drive topline growth across both Private and Corporate customers.
You will lead a sales organization of more than 20 people and play a central role in strengthening sales capability, culture and ways of working across the wider organization.

- Driving topline growth and sales performance in close collaboration with the Head of Operations and the operational organization
- Setting clear sales targets and KPIs and ensuring continuous performance follow-up and improvement
- Developing and driving the sales and campaign plan together with Marketing and Operations
- Using data, KPIs and member insights to set priorities, identify opportunities and drive measurable business results
- Strengthening value-based selling and the ability to clearly communicate customer value and product differentiation
- Building sales competence and developing a strong, high-performing sales culture across the sales organization and SATS gyms
- Leading, coaching and developing department leaders and regional sales specialists, creating clear direction, priorities and accountability
- Continuously improving sales processes, tools and ways of working to strengthen conversion, effectiveness and consistency in execution
- Building a sustainable and engaging organization characterized by collaboration, accountability and healthy ways of working
- Collaborating closely across the Swedish organization and with Nordic functions to align commercial priorities and ensure strong execution
We believe you:
- Have solid experience from senior sales leadership roles and a proven track record of driving topline growth and strong sales results
- Have experience leading and developing leaders and sales teams, as well as building sales capability and a strong performance culture
- Have experience successfully driving sales based on customer value and product differentiation, preferably within retail, service, hospitality or another consumer-facing business
- Are strongly commercially driven and combine strategic and analytical thinking with a hands-on and action-oriented approach
- Are clear, structured and methodical, with a strong ability to translate priorities and insights into execution and measurable results
- Are highly collaborative, humble and non-prestigious, with the ability to build trust and commitment across functions and organizational levels
- Combine strong collaboration skills with courage and integrity – and are comfortable setting direction, making decisions and standing firm when needed
- Thrive in a fast-paced and sales-driven environment and continuously look for opportunities to improve performance, processes and ways of working
Experience from both B2C and B2B/Corporate sales, subscription- or membership-based businesses and larger matrix organizations is considered an advantage.
