Role Description Build Lancea’s revenue engine from the ground up: design and run the full sales cycle, own the client relationship post-sale, turn early adopters into lifelong evangelists, and hire and develop the team that scales it all. The opportunity This is a pioneering commercial role. You are building the function, not joining it. You will be highly hands-on, responsible for the entire commercial process, starting with: - Outbound prospecting - Testing messaging - Securing wins Once clients sign, you’ll stay with them as their strategic partner, ensuring they get massive value from the platform so they renew and expand. You’ll have support from the Ops team and your other colleagues, but you’ll lead these critical external relationships. As you succeed and build our growth path, you'll be directly responsible for scaling the team beneath you. We anticipate hiring 6+ additional Account Executives and Customer Success Managers in your first year, so we'll be looking to you to lead that hiring, shape the culture, and develop the people. The details - what you’ll own - 0-to-1 Revenue Generation: Manage the full end-to-end sales cycle. You are our pathfinder for new markets. - Customer Success & Account Management: Be the strategic advisor for the clients you close. Drive their onboarding, ensure adoption, secure renewals, and identify expansion opportunities. - Build the Team & System: Establish scalable sales and onboarding processes, build out our CRM from scratch, and own the hiring, onboarding, and development of the AEs and CSMs you'll need to execute at scale. - Voice of the Customer: Act as the ultimate bridge between our clients and the product team. Qualifications - Demonstrated B2B experience spanning Sales, Business Development, or highly commercial Customer Success. - Full-lifecycle capability: You can close complex deals, but also have the emotional intelligence to retain and grow those accounts. - Early-stage DNA: Demonstrated success building GTM processes from scratch. - Deep industry fluency: A strong understanding of the PR, Corporate Comms, or Public Affairs landscape. - Enthusiastic team player. We’re planning to grow together for a long time; we care deeply about our team values and culture and are looking for team members who do too. - People leadership: A track record of hiring, coaching, or mentoring sales talent, or a clear, demonstrable appetite to do so at scale for the first time. Compensation & Benefits - Base salary range: $120,000–$150,000 annually assessed on a variety of factors including qualifications, experience, and geographic location. - This role is eligible for variable compensation (e.g., commissions tied to new business, renewals, and expansions), subject to the terms of applicable incentive plans. - Lancea is early-stage, which means you'll help shape the culture and direction of the company. - Current benefits include a competitive salary, 401(k), flexible schedule, and unlimited paid time off, with more to come as we scale.
