To learn more about our firm culture, please visit our website. We are seeking a Vice President of Revenue to join our team and navigate something most law firms never attempt; pivoting from the traditional hourly model toward predictable membership and product-based services, and building a real, modern revenue engine to power it! This role is the linchpin of that build. The Vice President of Revenue is a build role, not a maintenance position. Reporting directly to the CEO as a member of the leadership team, the VP of Revenue owns the entire revenue engine end to end: Demand, Land, and Expand. In this role you will architect and stand up the operating system that runs it, build and coach the team that executes it, and, in the early innings, personally sit in the room and help close. If you have taken a revenue or sales organization from a lean, under-built start and turned it into a robust operation on your own back, and you want the ownership, the pace, and the upside of doing it again, this is your seat.

Requirements

A builder, not a technician. You have stood up and scaled a revenue or sales organization from a lean start into a real operation, in SaaS/technology or B2B professional services, and you can point to the org you built and the growth you drove.
A closer. You can sell, and you are willing to. You will be in the room closing while you build the machine.
Full-funnel fluent with real RevOps experience. Demand generation through close and retention: funnel design, lead routing, pipeline management, dashboards, and data discipline. Comfortable with multi-channel and volume-based outbound.
Autonomous and accountable. Point you in a direction and you run. You close your own loops and you do not need to be chased.
Fast, organized, and decisive. You keep work at a high pace, make decisions quickly, communicate exceptionally well, and thrive on change.
Entrepreneurial. You like to bet on yourself and own the upside, and you are energized by breaking the mold of what a traditional law firm does.
An easy person to work with. Genuinely enjoyable, coachable, result-oriented, and accountable.
10+ years in revenue, sales, or marketing leadership, including having owned a full revenue or go-to-market function end to end.
A track record of building and scaling. You have taken a revenue or sales organization from a lean start into a robust operation and can point to the systems, team, and growth you personally drove (for example, materially multiplying revenue).
Full-funnel experience across demand generation, sales and closing, and retention/expansion; ideally following a SaaS/technology or B2B professional-services model.
Hands-on closing experience. You have personally carried and closed deals recently, not only managed the people who do.
Team-building experience. Recruiting, coaching, and structuring a revenue or quota-carrying team.
A strong RevOps toolkit. Funnel and pipeline design, CRM and lead-routing discipline, dashboards and data analysis, marketing automation, and multi-channel / volume-based outbound. Comfort with a Salesforce-based stack is a plus.

Responsibilities

Own the full revenue strategy. Set the architecture and the single plan every revenue function runs on, and convert annual targets into quarterly pipeline, consult, close, renewal, and expansion goals.
Build and run the revenue operating system. Pipeline stages, CRM hygiene, lead routing, consult and proposal flow, handoff rules, dashboards, and a disciplined weekly revenue cadence.
Lead cross-functional execution. Connect marketing, prospecting, intake, closing, onboarding, and client success so work moves cleanly across the engine.
Drive revenue productivity. Grow qualified opportunity volume without flooding the funnel; improve consult quality, proposal speed, close rate, average matter value, and retention.
Build the team for scale. Recruit, coach, and structure the org toward $50MM and beyond, starting by hiring your first closer alongside the CEO.
Close, while you build. Personally participate in the close as the function is stood up, and move the revenue mix from mostly hourly toward a balanced fixed-and-recurring model.
