My client is a well known platform to help with college recruitment, nutrition and training, and education for high school athletes across the United States.
They are looking for an SVP of Sales to help drive strategy across their 600 person sales department. This role is fully remote, and can be located anywhere across the United States. You must be legally authorized to work without sponsorship.
You will have 3-4 direct reports, 3 over looking sales, and 1 over looking their salesforce platform. The direct reports are responsible for holding the sales team accountable. This role will focus on strategy, be in the weeds enough to know what they should change, but not super deep knowing what everyone is doing.
As a key leader, the SVP will collaborate with sales leadership as well as cross-functional partners, including product/technology, marketing, and services teams, to develop and optimize multi-channel sales strategies. This role requires a strategic mindset, operational excellence, and deep experience in high-volume B2C digital products and services within the youth sports market.
They are looking for someone with experience in a high volume, less complexity sales cycle, and not someone who has just overseen business development.
Ideally, if you have a sports, television/entertainment, or education background you would be the correct fit! Unfortunately, if you have health care or telecomm experience, this wont be the role for you.
What will make a candidafte stand out?
- Someone who has led a 5-600 person inside sales team
- Someone whose annual revenue is 200 million or above
- Someone with experience in B2C sales
- Someone with digital sales experience
