Sales Director

The Sales Director is responsible for new business growth, measured by annual contract value (ACV) from individual schools and districts. This person will manage a full team of front-line sellers and sales support to reach the company’s overall revenue targets. This role will report directly to the Chief Revenue Officer and be paid commissions against specific monthly targets for new business dollars as set by the annual budget and approved by USATP’s Board of Directors, in addition to a base salary.

Interested applicants should send a resume and cover letter to HR@usatestprep.com.

Responsibilities Include:

• Work with the Chief Revenue Officer to set targets for new business growth; translate those targets into a specific and actionable sales strategy for beating those targets.
• Identify KPIs, milestones, and other measurement activities for the sales team to monitor its success over time, and quickly recognize opportunities and deficiencies that need to be addressed.
• Manage a complete sales organization including front-line sellers and sales support staff; define roles and working relationships within the team; grow this team over time in line with company revenue targets and expectations.
• Identify all critical supporting roles (marketing, onboarding, training) that need to be carried out to improve the productivity of the sales team; work with the CRO and other leaders within the company to make sure those supporting functions are completed in ways that best position our sales team for success.
• Serve as the management team leader for Salesforce, ensuring data integrity and behavioral consistency with how sellers input and report data out of the CRM. This role should ensure we always have “one version of the truth” when it comes to sales tracking and performance management.
• Establish territory plans, and revise them accordingly as the total number of sellers grows over time; set policies on adjusting territory allocation for sellers based on over and/or underperformance.
• Work collaboratively with the Renewals Director to establish processes and standards that ensure new sales consistently translate to the highest LTV per customer.
• Grow new business efforts in both efficiency and effectiveness, ensuring we bring professionalism, persistence, and empathy to how we work with all of our constituents.
