Quick facts
From the original posting
We’re looking for early sales hires to bring Watershed to more companies. We’re at an inflection point: every large company is launching and scaling climate programs as pressure for action builds every day. You’ll do whatever it takes to get those companies on Watershed and help them be effective. As a foundational member of our go-to-market organization, you’ll help build the sales playbook, shape Watershed’s product, and help us build a stellar team.
You will:
Sell Watershed. Find your way to the right people at leading companies, educate them about effective climate programs, and help them succeed with Watershed. You’ll own the full lifecycle, from first outbound to contract signature
Develop the Watershed sales playbook—what’s the best messaging? how do we triangulate through the org? what tools do we need?—into a repeatable machine
Source pipeline. You’ll be supported by industry-leading Marketing and Sales Development teams and will take our message outbound to the market alongside them.
Take Watershed into new market segments and bring new platform capabilities to market
Shape Watershed’s product strategy by sharing feedback from customers on the front line
Become an expert in climate, and educate companies on how they should navigate the world of regulatory compliance, carbon reduction targets, clean energy, carbon removal, and decarbonizing supply chains
Help build and scale the sales team
You might be a fit if you:
Have 5-7+ years of sales excellence, especially with enterprise customers ($1B+ revenue) at an executive level
3+ years of demonstrated success selling SaaS enterprise at $100k-500K deals
Are excited to lead from zero to one. You love to build things from scratch—new playbooks for navigating organizations and ways to tell the Watershed story
Are an excellent consultative seller. You listen deeply to customers and excel by helping them solve their problem
Love going deep on new domains. You’ve sold products in complex or technical fields, and relish becoming an expert on your subject matter. You’re voraciously curious. You’re excited to learn everything about climate and help companies navigate this space
Have a track record of doing whatever it takes to get things done. You’ve accomplished things that others thought were impossible. You’re relentlessly resourceful
Want to join a startup, take responsibility for the fate of the company, and move fast
