About the role

We’re looking for a proven sales closer who is fired up by our mission and ready to accelerate our growth. You’ll thrive here if you are a relentless hunter of opportunities, a master of the "soft sell" in luxury markets, and someone who takes extreme ownership of the customer journey.

Responsibilities

  • Developing your pipeline and market - Proactively engaging with qualified leads and untapped opportunities to build and maintain a robust, high-conversion sales pipeline.
  • Hosting Qualified Demo Experiences - Leading high-stakes, on-water demonstrations for serious prospects, expertly articulating the value proposition and performance of Arc’s electric vessels.
  • Maintaining impeccable data hygiene: update deal stages, log all activities, and tag key insights so the entire go-to-market team operates on real-time facts.
  • Managing Contracts: Drafting, tailoring, and executing purchase agreements, ensuring all documentation is accurate and move-ready for the customer.
  • Conducting targeted outbound calls to prospects, cold leads, and unresponsive leads to generate new opportunities and expand pipeline reach.
  • Identifying and presenting new opportunities for events, partnerships, and activations to continuously feed the top of the sales funnel in your market.
  • Facilitating Transactions: Guiding customers through the final stages of the purchase process, including financing coordination, payment milestones, and administrative requirements.
  • Reporting weekly on pipeline growth, lead-source performance, and win-rate drivers—turning data into clear, actionable stories.
  • Jumping into boat shows, demos, deliveries, or special events when the team needs an extra set of hands—team-first mindset, always!

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in high-ticket sales (luxury automotive, marine, aviation, or premium real estate preferred) with a proven sales track record.
  • Strong ability to manage complex contracts and handle objections with a solution-oriented mindset.
  • Enthusiasm for working with customers and educating them on new concepts.
  • Track record of driving towards, and exceeding, ambitious sales goals.
  • Experience in creating extraordinary customer experiences.
  • Confident boat handling skills to safely and impressively showcase vessel capabilities during demos.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment where sales strategies iterate based on objective metrics.
  • Detail oriented and practiced in keeping clean, accurate data through CRM.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication—you translate technical features into compelling benefits with ease.
  • Willingness to work evenings/weekends.
  • Willingness to travel (~ 50%).

Bonus Qualifications

  • Experience selling luxury consumer goods, marine, automotive, or EV products direct to consumer.
  • Familiarity with lead-scoring models and sales/delivery automation workflows.
  • Passion for water sports—wake surfing, wakeboarding, sailing, or fishing.
  • Deep network within the local luxury or boating community.
  • Comfortable pushing at a fast but sustainable pace.
  • Enthusiasm for boating and the water.
