The Sales Leader will be responsible for building long-term client relationships, shaping demand, and driving revenue through team-based engagements. This is a remote role.

Key Responsibilities

• Position cross-functional delivery teams across consulting, data, and technology as strategic solutions to client challenges.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with C-level executives, business leaders, and decision-makers.

• Lead the full sales lifecycle including prospecting, solutioning, proposal development, negotiation, and closing.
• Collaborate with delivery teams to ensure seamless transition from sales to execution.
• Drive account expansion strategies by identifying opportunities to embed additional team capabilities within existing clients.
• Create and deliver compelling presentations, proposals, and value narratives focused on business outcomes.
• Track pipeline, forecast revenue, and manage sales performance against targets.
• Stay informed on market trends, competitive landscape, and client needs within analytics and consulting services.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• 8 to 15 plus years of experience in consulting sales and professional services.
• Proven ability to sell consulting services or teams, not just fixed-scope projects.
• Experience selling into both mid-market and enterprise clients across industries such as financial services, healthcare, or professional services.
• Proven track record of closing $10M to $25M+ in annual deal value, with consistent year-over-year achievement.
• Demonstrated ability to meet or exceed sales targets and revenue quotas in a high-performance, metrics-driven environment.
• Ability to leverage existing network of client relationships and industry contacts.
• Strong understanding of analytics, data services, AI, and technology-enabled consulting.
• Excellent communication, storytelling, and presentation skills.
• Demonstrated success in building and managing client relationships at the executive level.
• Experience structuring and selling team-, staff augmentation-, and managed service-based engagements.
• Experience in and comfortability with a high-growth services organization.
• Strong commercial acumen including pricing, deal structuring, and contract negotiation.
• Ability to collaborate cross-functionally with delivery, operations, and leadership teams.
• Experience with pipeline management and Salesforce CRM.
• Self-starter with the ability to operate in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
