Job description

Are you proactive, assertive, and a natural self-starter? Do you thrive in competitive situations and naturally take charge? Do you think ahead and hit big goals? Are you a clear, credible communicator who builds trust with customers by knowing the details cold?

Do you enjoy working closely with your team to remove obstacles and hold team members accountable in a player/coach environment? In this role, you'll oversee our primary revenue engine and a team of nine across sales, customer success, and graphic design.

Here at TerraSlate, we have a high-accountability culture driven by our Core Values of Grit, Focus, Growth, and Candor. If you thrive in fast-moving, performance-driven environments, you will love it here. This role is on-site in Englewood, five days a week, for candidates already living in the Denver metro.

As the sales leader, you will report to the COO with the mandate, resources, and executive support to build a revenue organization and growth strategy that scales. This is a hands‑on leadership role that combines personal direct sales, strategy, execution, and team building. You are expected to develop scalable systems, not just manage our existing team. This is your opportunity to shape the trajectory of a company that has transformed an industry. The ideal candidate has built and led sales teams in B2B, manufacturing, or product‑based businesses, and knows how to drive predictable growth without bureaucracy.

At TerraSlate, we offer more than a job: a chance to join a high‑growth, Entrepreneurial Operating System ® (EOS) driven company. You will build a revenue engine that keeps growing without you carrying it.

Key Responsibilities

• Revenue Leadership: Own TerraSlate’s revenue execution and outcomes across direct sales, website sales, design services, and enterprise accounts. Lead high-performance teams driving demand generation, sales enablement, and account management for maximum pipeline conversion and customer lifetime value.
• Player-Coach: Set the standard and lead from the front by personally sourcing, managing, and closing high-value mid‑sized and enterprise opportunities. Drive marquee deals and model the sales excellence expected across the organization.
• Enterprise Growth: Build and expand TerraSlate’s enterprise customer base across key industries (hospitality, healthcare, education, transportation, government, and others).
• Lead, Manage, Hold Accountable (LMA): Cultivate a culture of accountability, coaching, and performance excellence aligned with EOS principles.
• Revenue Operations and Data: Use data to make decisions across all customer‑facing functions, tracking KPIs, forecasts, and dashboards in Shopify and HubSpot.
• Sales and Marketing Integration: Partner with COO to align sales and marketing initiatives, driving maximum performance while maintaining brand standards, customer satisfaction, and the company’s core value proposition.

Qualifications

• Proven track record of scaling revenue in a growth‑stage company, leading an SMB sales department with aggressive timeframes, ideally with manufacturing, B2B, or product‑based businesses.
• Demonstrated success in building, leading, and inspiring high-performing sales and customer success teams.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a willingness to roll up sleeves and own results.
• Strong command of sales operations, forecasting, and P&L ownership.
• Exceptional negotiation, communication, and relationship‑building skills.
• Bachelor's degree required; MBA is a plus.
• Currently based in the Denver metro area ; on‑site presence is required five days per week. This is not a remote or hybrid position.

What Success Looks Like

• By day 60, you’re running the revenue team’s weekly pipeline meeting, owning the scorecard, and holding the team accountable.
• By day 90, you’re fully onboarded, leading all three teams, and have completed your first Rocks.
• By day 120, you’re hitting 70% of weekly scorecard targets, including channel revenue, individual sales goals, high‑quality calls, and customer satisfaction.
• By the end of year one, revenue is up 18%, average weekly customer satisfaction is 99%, and graphic design revenue is on track against forecast.
• By the end of year two, revenue is up 39% from today, and you’re hitting 80% of weekly scorecard targets.
