In the near term, this is a founder‑adjacent, hands‑on role.

You must be deeply entrepreneurial, hard working, and excited to build the manual for sales success at OrderMesh. As we scale, you’ll be in charge of building your sales team around you.

  • Discover new business opportunities through market research, networking, and finding leads
  • Sell and negotiate with potential clients/customers
  • Present product demonstrations
  • Negotiate agreements and keep records of sales and data
Our Ideal Candidate Will Have
  • 5+ years of success in a full-cycle B2B sales role, preferably selling SaaS, technology, or complex solutions
  • Demonstrated experience meeting or exceeding annual sales quotas
  • Proven ability to prospect, build pipeline, and close net-new business independently
  • Experience leading consultative sales processes with multiple stakeholders, including executive-level decision makers
  • Strong discovery, presentation, negotiation, and closing skills
  • Experience developing pricing proposals, commercial terms, and business cases for customers
  • Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, ambiguous startup or high‑growth environment
  • Excellent verbal, written, and presentation communication skills
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple opportunities simultaneously
  • Experience using CRM platforms (Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar) to manage pipeline, forecasting, and customer interactions
We Would Also Prefer
  • Experience selling SaaS or technology solutions into eCommerce, print, manufacturing, fulfillment, supply chain, or operations environments
  • Experience selling annual recurring revenue (ARR) software subscriptions
  • Experience working within early‑stage, founder‑led, or venture‑backed organizations
  • Experience building sales processes, playbooks, and go‑to‑market strategies from the ground up
  • Experience with channel partnerships, strategic alliances, or partner‑led sales motions
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or related field
