Responsibilities
- Owning revenue: you are directly accountable for hitting ambitious territory sales targets across Boston, Washington D.C., Chicago, and the Great Lakes region
- Building and executing market-specific growth strategies for each territory, tailoring approach to local dynamics, competitive landscape, and customer segments
- Maintaining clear pipelines, holding regular 1:1s, co-selling alongside team members, conducting deal reviews, and being deeply engaged in the day-to-day activity of your team
- Leading, mentoring and developing Territory Managers to hit and exceed their individual quotas; identifying strengths, closing skill gaps, and helping each rep grow into their territory
- Spending meaningful time in market, this role requires up to 50% travel to be present with your team and key customers across all territories
- Overseeing and collaborating with business development resources embedded in or supporting territories, including managing through a BD team manager as the team scales
- Contributing to and improving our sales processes, playbooks, and tools — identifying what’s working across territories and scaling best practices
- Working with partnerships, marketing, product, and leadership on go-to-market strategy, brand presence in key cities, and new market expansion planning
- Build strong relationships with property managers, co‑op boards, and other key stakeholders, ensuring Runwise is viewed as a reliable and valued partner
- Foster a culture of internal mobility by developing and promoting top performers, while maintaining healthy candidate pipelines to support future growth
- Lead and manage a team of Territory Managers with rigor, accountability, and consistency, while creating an environment where talented people want to stay, grow, and deliver their best work
Requirements
You have 7+ years of B2B sales experience, including at least 3 years directly managing a team of quota-carrying Account Executives, Territory Managers, or equivalent roles — with a track record of hitting or exceeding team revenue targets
Qualifications
- You thrive in fast-paced, high-growth startup environments where the playbook is still being written and you’re expected to figure things out quickly
- You are a hands-on manager — you don’t manage from a distance; you inspect pipelines, join calls, ride-along on deals, and are deeply engaged with your team’s day-to-day
- You are highly analytical and data-driven: you use CRM data and pipeline metrics to understand what’s working, identify gaps, and make decisions (Salesforce experience strongly preferred)
- You have excellent communication, coaching, and relationship-building skills both with your team and with key customers
- You are comfortable with ambiguity and take ownership — if something isn’t working, you diagnose it and fix it
- You see this as a leadership platform, not just a number to hit. You want to build something, grow people, and take on more scope over time.
