Build Your Future With Us

The digitization of tax compliance is fundamentally changing global commerce and how businesses need to operate and grow. Governments now have real-time visibility into business data, creating new challenges and new opportunities for organizations around the world. At Sovos, we're transforming tax compliance from a business requirement into a driver of growth through AI-powered technology that delivers the accurate, real-time insights businesses need to make smarter decisions.

We're solving more than today's tax compliance challenges. We're helping reshape global economies by enabling organizations to navigate increasingly complex and rapidly changing regulatory environments with confidence – and helping communities thrive.

AI is accelerating what's possible, enabling tax and technology professionals to more effectively drive critical regulatory decisions. That's where Sovos excels, combining intelligent technology with human expertise to help customers stay ahead of change.

Don't worry if you don't check every box. We're focused on hiring great people, not perfect resumes. It's less about what you've done elsewhere and more about what you're capable of doing here.

The Role

At Sovos, we're building a best-in-class Renewals organization, and we're looking for a Renewals Manager to help shape it from the ground up. In this quota-carrying role, you'll own the renewal process for a portfolio of SaaS customers, driving retention, growth, and exceptional customer experiences through strong relationships and smart negotiation.

More Specifically, You Will

• Build and nurture relationships with key stakeholders at customer organizations, partnering closely with Account Management and Customer Success to develop comprehensive account strategies.
• Lead renewal negotiations with professionalism and strategic thinking, ensuring successful outcomes while identifying and pursuing upsell opportunities within your assigned accounts.
• Implement renewals best practices that elevate the customer experience, streamline processes, and drive predictable results.
• Maintain operational excellence throughout the renewal lifecycle, addressing challenges proactively and ensuring smooth execution from forecast to close.
• Leverage AI tools and automation to streamline workflows and improve output quality, applying critical judgment to validate AI-generated content for accuracy and alignment with company standards.
• Deliver consistent, accurate forecasting and meet or exceed renewal targets quarter over quarter.

• You've built relevant experience managing SaaS renewals, with a track record of hitting or exceeding quota in a customer-facing role.
• Strong negotiation, communication, and relationship-building skills are strengths you've developed, and you know how to navigate complex stakeholder dynamics.
• You're comfortable working both independently and collaboratively, adapting quickly to new systems, processes, and product offerings.
• Comfort with AI-assisted workflows and a thoughtful approach to using technology to work smarter.
• Willingness to travel occasionally (less than 25%) for customer meetings, team gatherings, and company events.
• Due to client contractual obligations, the successful candidate will be asked to clear a background check and drug test upon hire.

The Process

We believe in a transparent and comprehensive hiring process. Here's what you might expect:

1. Pre-Employment Assessment Regionally specific assessments we use to mitigate bias and give every applicant a fair shot.
2. Video Interview A chance to meet as many qualified applicants as possible and get to know you beyond your resume.
3. Meeting with a Recruiter A conversation to talk through the role, your experience, and your goals.
4. Live Interviews with the Hiring Team Meet the people you'll work with and dig into the day-to-day of the role.
