Sobre esta vaga de Senior Sales Manager na Otter.ai
The Opportunity
Otter.ai is looking for a driven, hands-on Sales Manager to lead and develop a team of Account Executives as we build and scale our sales organization.
This is an exciting opportunity for a sales leader who thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment and is passionate about developing talent, driving results, and building a culture of accountability and high performance.
Reporting to the Senior Director of Sales, you'll play a key role in strengthening our sales execution, developing a high-performing team, and helping establish the processes and operating rhythms needed to scale. We're looking for a leader who isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves — someone who leads from the front, coaches in real time, and knows how to turn strategy into results.
This role follows a hybrid work schedule, with three days per week in one of our Bay Area offices.
What You'll Do
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of Account Executives, driving consistent quota attainment, pipeline generation, and revenue growth.
- Build a high-performance culture grounded in clear expectations, accountability, continuous feedback, and recognition.
- Take a hands-on approach to sales coaching, including joining customer calls, reviewing deals, strengthening discovery and objection handling, and helping reps navigate complex sales cycles.
- Own team performance, proactively identifying gaps, delivering actionable feedback, and developing plans to improve individual and team results.
- Drive outbound prospecting and pipeline generation, helping the team build and maintain a healthy, predictable pipeline.
- Establish consistent operating rhythms, including pipeline reviews, deal inspections, forecasting, and regular coaching sessions.
- Partner with the Senior Director of Sales to implement sales strategies, improve processes, and help build a scalable, high-performing sales organization.
- Leverage sales methodologies, including MEDDPIC, to strengthen qualification, deal execution, and win rates.
- Support recruiting, onboarding, and ramping new sales talent, helping new hires become productive quickly.
- Use Salesforce and performance data to track KPIs, identify trends, improve forecast accuracy, and drive accountability.
- Collaborate closely with Marketing, Customer Success, Solutions Engineering, and other cross-functional partners to improve the customer experience and accelerate revenue growth.
- Foster an environment where team members feel supported, challenged, and motivated to perform at their best.
What You Bring
- 6+ years of successful B2B sales experience, ideally in SaaS or a high-growth technology environment.
- 3+ years of experience directly managing and developing a team of quota-carrying sales professionals.
- Proven track record of consistently achieving or exceeding sales targets, both as an individual contributor and as a sales leader.
- Demonstrated ability to coach and develop sales talent, improve underperformance, and build high-performing teams.
- Experience driving outbound prospecting and pipeline generation.
- Strong understanding of sales methodologies, including MEDDPIC, pipeline management, forecasting, and deal execution.
- Highly hands-on leadership style, with a passion for coaching through live calls, deal reviews, and ongoing feedback.
- Strong analytical skills and the ability to use sales data to identify opportunities and drive performance improvements.
- Experience with Salesforce CRM and sales productivity tools.
- Excellent communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills.
- A builder's mindset — comfortable with ambiguity, energized by change, and willing to help create and improve processes rather than simply follow established ones.
- A collaborative, results-oriented leadership style with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
