About The Team

The Enterprise Hunter team engages with some of the largest and fastest-growing businesses in the world to take advantage of Stripe’s solutions. You'll lead and coach high-performing sales executives dispersed across the US focusing on landing new logos, helping them deliver on ambitious targets, as well as roll up your sleeves to work directly with prospective Stripe customers.

Responsibilities

• Recruit, mentor, develop, and lead a team of sales professionals while scaling our GTM presence across AMER.
• Train the team in up-leveling professional skills such as collaborative pipeline generation, consultative and solution-based selling, closing tactics, adoption of MEDDIIC, and serving as a trusted advisor to Stripe Users.

Who you are

We are looking for a self-starting leader who is a builder and has demonstrated a track record of target attainment and success dealing with ambiguity, operating in a high-growth environment, and solving complicated problems with limited oversight. Ideal candidates will have management and leadership experience scaling a technology sales team, superior communication skills, and a knack for understanding unique customer needs and deeply technical sales. We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

Minimum Requirements

• 10+ years of experience as a proven account executive and/or 5+ years of front line sales management experience within technology, SaaS, banking or payments spaces. Second line management experience is a plus.
• Experience training, coaching, and scaling a high-performance sales team.
• Ability to build relationships with strategic clients, industry thought leaders and alliances & channel partners.
• Experience operating in an early stage, high-growth, technology forward environment.
• Demonstrated passion for Stripe’s mission.
• Ability to clearly communicate technical concepts and build great relationships with highly technical customers.

In-office expectations

Office-assigned Stripes in most of our locations are currently expected to spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This expectation may vary depending on role, team and location. For example, Stripes in Stripe Delivery Center roles in Mexico City, Mexico, Bengaluru, India, and Dublin, Ireland work 100% from the office. Also, some teams have greater in-office attendance requirements, to appropriately support our users and workflows, which the hiring manager will discuss. This approach helps strike a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility when possible.

Pay and benefits

The annual US base salary range for this role is $299,800 - $449,800. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.

We look forward to hearing from you.
