- Build, lead, and mentor a high-performance sales organization, including frontline AEs, SDRs, and sales leaders, with an emphasis on coaching, accountability, and continuous improvement

- Design and document scalable, end-to-end sales processes, from outbound prospecting to close, ensuring operational excellence and strong CRM hygiene
- Establish clear KPIs, forecasting models, and inspection rhythms to create predictable, data-driven revenue performance
- Partner closely with Marketing, Product Management, Customer Success, and Alliances to align messaging, campaigns, and product roadmap to market needs and field feedback

- Develop and deepen executive-level relationships with key customers, partners, and Salesforce stakeholders to drive adoption, expansion, and advocacy
- Recruit, onboard, and develop "leaders of leaders," enabling the organization to scale from initial pods to a large, distributed sales force
- Represent Flosum at Salesforce ecosystem events, industry conferences, and customer forums as a credible, compelling ambassador for the brand and the mission
Requirements

- Track record of consistently meeting or exceeding multi-million-dollar ARR targets and scaling a sales organization to 30+ people or more

- Strong executive presence with the ability to engage CIOs, CISOs, CTOs, and line-of-business leaders in strategic, outcome-driven conversations
- Experience building a high-performance culture in a remote or distributed team environment
- Bachelor's degree in business, engineering, or a related field; an MBA or advanced degree is a plus but not required for exceptional candidates
