The successful candidate will be a strategic and results-driven leader with a minimum of 10 years' experience in B2B software/SaaS sales, including at least 5 years in a senior sales leadership role. The role demands a deep understanding of the higher education market, particularly in selling complex software solutions to colleges and universities. The VP of Sales will be responsible for developing and executing a comprehensive sales strategy, leading a high-performing sales organization, and driving significant revenue growth. This includes refining the sales process, maintaining market expertise, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure the company's position as a leading partner for higher education institutions.
Applicants for the VP of Sales position at the company should possess a Bachelor's degree (MBA or advanced degree is a plus) and have a proven track record of meeting or exceeding multi-million dollar sales targets in a SaaS environment. Expertise in modern SaaS sales methodologies and experience with CRM systems, particularly Salesforce, is essential. The role requires exceptional leadership, coaching, and mentoring skills, as well as the ability to engage with key prospects and customers at an executive level. The ideal candidate will have a network of contacts within the North American higher education community and experience in a high-growth technology company. The company is an equal-opportunity workplace and encourages candidates from diverse backgrounds to apply.
