Sales Manager - Atlanta, Georgia

About the Role

Cerbo OptiMantra is a high-growth healthcare SaaS company providing technology for functional, integrative, direct primary care (DPC), and concierge medicine practices. This is a front-line sales leadership role for a proven producer who has moved from winning deals personally to making other sellers win. It is not an administrative seat. The Sales Manager owns a new business number and builds the system that delivers it.

Leadership Approach

Cerbo OptiMantra expects its sales leaders to serve the floor, not sit above it. The team's success is the measure. Recognition flows to the reps. Accountability for results stops with the manager. Obstacles are the manager's problem — bad data, a broken handoff, a missing piece of collateral, a pricing question nobody will answer. This role clears the path rather than asking reps to work around it. Coaching is the primary output. Time goes to developing sellers, not to reporting on them. Status quo is not an answer. Candor with care: high standards are held directly and privately, without theater, and with genuine investment in the person clearing them.

What The Role Owns

• The number: team new business quota, pipeline coverage, and a forecast leadership can plan against
• Live deal coaching: call and demo reviews, deal inspection, and in-the-moment help on qualification, multi-threading, objection handling, negotiation, and closing
• Skill transfer: turning what works into something teachable and repeatable rather than something only one person can execute
• Pipeline generation: setting and enforcing prospecting standards so the team builds its own pipeline, in partnership with SDRs and marketing on targeting and messaging
• Diagnosis and change: using CRM data, call recordings, and conversion metrics to separate a skill problem from a targeting problem from a process problem, then fixing the right one and measuring the result
• Hiring and ramp: recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding sellers, with a bias toward shortening time to first close
• Data discipline: accurate pipeline and activity data in the CRM, with stage definitions, next steps, and close dates that mean something
• Growth levers beyond headcount: ICP discipline instead of volume for its own sake, deal governance, and payments attach on new practices
• Cross-functional partnership: marketing on demand generation, product on customer and competitive feedback, CX and implementation on clean handoffs

What Success Looks Like

• The number moves: attainment, win rate, average deal size, and cycle length trend in the right direction because of specific, identifiable changes
• Individual reps get better: middling sellers become producers, with a clear line between what was taught and what improved
• The floor rises, not just the ceiling: bottom performers improve quickly or transition quickly — neither outcome is left ambiguous
• Problems surface early: risk reaches leadership with a plan attached, not as a miss explained after the fact
