We have an immediate opening for a Sales Manager with a proven track record of success to join our rapidly growing team. Reporting to the Sales Director, this role is a critical member of the sales leadership team, responsible for coaching reps through every stage of the outbound sales process, including prospecting, qualification, and pipeline building, while using data to spot gaps and drive the fixes that close them. This is a results-driven position built for someone who can build and manage remote software sales teams, and who is as comfortable in a rep's deal review as they are in a pipeline dashboard.

  • Bring 5+ years of quota-exceeding experience selling mid-enterprise deals, with a track record of overachievement and hitting sales targets
  • Support deals directly as senior air cover, managing multiple stakeholder deal cycles and helping the team navigate complex organizations and negotiations
  • Onboard and ramp new Account Executives, accelerating their time to productivity
  • Forecast accurately and represent your business clearly to the executive team
  • Partner cross-functionally with Marketing, Operations, Product, and Engineering to develop and execute initiatives that support the sales org

  • Own and evolve the sales playbook, driving adoption across your team
  • Develop future sales leaders and share learnings and best practices across the company
  • Scale the organization sustainably as the team grows

You're a self-starter who's passionate about coaching, mentorship, and team management, motivated by helping people grow, self-aware, and high in emotional intelligence. You learn fast, establish credibility quickly, and thrive in a high-growth, rapidly changing marketplace. You're excited to build a career at a startup disrupting the gig economy, and you're committed to developing a deep understanding of Instawork's mission, values, and product.
