We're looking for an experienced and hands-on Sales Leader to build, coach, and scale a team focused on retaining, expanding, and growing our install base of commercial customers on Vercel. You'll be a coach who not only leads, hires, mentors, and develops top talent, but also rolls up your sleeves to work deals alongside the team.

• Hands-on leader who thrives in a player-coach role.

• Hands-On Leadership: Roll up your sleeves to join calls, dig into product demos, and co-create expansion motions with your team.
• Pipeline & Execution: Partner closely with team to generate expansion pipeline, advance opportunities, and close upsell and cross-sell business within the existing customer base.
• Collaboration: Work cross-functionally with Customer Success, Marketing, Product, and Solution Engineers to ensure customers get the resources they need to grow and succeed on Vercel.
