About the role

Are you a disciplined sales leader who thrives on operational rigour and driving team performance?

We are looking for a Sales Lead to work closely with our Head of Partnerships, Commercial Leadership, and Rev Ops to drive the performance of our sales team. This is a dedicated people management and performance role where your impact is defined by how effectively you run the team and ensure the sales operation functions with clarity, discipline, and reliability.

You will blend strong people management with disciplined pipeline operations to create an environment where strong AEs consistently hit 80-100% of their target. If you are passionate about inspecting performance, setting high standards, and coaching a team to execute with precision, this is the role for you.

• Leading a high-performance culture: Setting clear expectations for output and behaviour, holding standards consistently, and providing structured feedback through effective 1:1s and performance conversations.

• Driving predictable revenue: Taking accountability for the quality, accuracy, and reliability of your team's pipeline and forecast. You will ensure pipelines are well-qualified with clear exit criteria and that risks are identified early.

• Elevating deal execution: Running regular deal reviews to clarify deal strength, accelerate deal velocity, and identify risk. You will utilise tools like Gong to inspect deals and dig into trends within your team.

• Enforcing a disciplined sales process: Ensuring your team follows a high-performance sales process designed for speed and clarity, while driving the adoption of tools and CRM hygiene.

• Collaborating for success: Partnering with Rev Ops, Finance, and GTM leadership to refine qualification and messaging, while working with Customer Success to ensure smooth handovers and visible early-stage performance.

• An Experienced Sales Leader: You have a proven track record of leading sales teams and driving the performance of Account Executives. You are comfortable blending strong people management with disciplined sales operations to hit revenue targets.

• Operationally Rigorous: You build strong habits around CRM hygiene, disciplined forecasting, and data quality. You believe that commercial trust is built on evidence-based numbers.

• Data-Driven: You actively inspect performance using data, pipeline quality, and observed behaviours rather than just monitoring compliance.

• A Coach: You are capable of providing practical support, problem-solving, and feedback on all aspects of sales execution, from outreach to closing.

Success looks like

• Strong Team Performance: A high percentage of your team hitting 80-100% of their target.
