Job Description
VP, Sales Management & Operations
E SOURCE
Role Description As VP, Sales Management & Operations, you’ll own the sales process, pipeline hygiene, and account-based sales management rigor across the Grid & Ops and Customer Solutions market units (MU). You report to the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) and operate as a peer to the sales leaders in both MUs, driving the discipline that keeps deals moving. - Own the end-to-end sales process for the Grid & Ops and Customer Solutions MUs, and enforce it consistently across every account team. - Set and enforce pipeline hygiene standards, including stage definitions, qualification criteria, next-step discipline, and accurate close dates. - Run the pipeline-review cadence: deal reviews, bid/no-bid meetings, and sales forecast calls. - Build the metrics and reporting that give the CCO and MU sales leaders clear visibility into pipeline health, sales activity, and deal momentum. - Operate as a peer to the MU sales leaders, creating a single, consistent sales operating model across both units. Qualifications - Have led and managed sales teams — building the process, the rigor, and the accountability — not carrying a personal quota. - Run pipeline reviews and deal qualification with discipline, and hold teams to it. - Know Salesforce well enough to own pipeline hygiene, reporting, and field workflows. - Drive account-based sales management across multiple teams, with strong influence and clear prioritization. - Turn marketing and solution demand generation into client outreach and follow-through that produces pipeline. - Set clear sales process and structure without slowing the team down. - Communicate clearly, hold sellers accountable, and earn the trust of senior commercial leaders. Requirements - At least 10 years in sales leadership, managing and developing sales teams rather than carrying an individual quota. - Demonstrated experience installing and enforcing sales process and account-based sales management rigor across multiple teams. - Proven track record running forecasting, pipeline reviews, pipeline hygiene, and deal qualification at a leadership level. - Hands-on ownership of Salesforce (or comparable CRM) as the system of record: pipeline hygiene, stage gates, reporting, lead routing, and field workflows. - Experience selling or leading sales across consulting, subscription, and SaaS motions. - Track record turning marketing and solution demand generation into client outreach, lead flow, and pipeline growth. - Bachelor’s degree preferred. Benefits - Excellent insurance options, including medical, dental, and vision plans; company-paid life insurance; company-paid long- and short-term disability insurance; medical and dependent-care flexible spending plans, and paid parental leave. - A flexible time off (FTO) policy that provides paid time away from work, approved by your manager. - A 401(k) plan with a 3% employer match. - The budgeted base salary range for this position is $200,000–$250,000 annually. - This role is also eligible for additional compensation opportunities, which may include bonus, commission, or other performance-based incentives. - This role will be remote within the US, with travel up to 50%, primarily for key client engagements.
