Mission of the Role
Create and close Localytics’ next generation of enterprise customers.
The Enterprise Sales Lead owns new enterprise revenue generation. This role is accountable for sourcing (in coordination with marketing), developing, and closing complex enterprise deals—turning target accounts into long-term Localytics customers.
This is a builder role. As the first AE, the Enterprise Sales Lead establishes how Localytics sells to the enterprise: defining the sales motion, shaping messaging, partnering deeply with the CEO and the leadership team to closing high-quality, high-value customers.
This is not a lead-taking or order-taking role. The Enterprise Sales Lead is a hunter, deal quarterback, and strategic seller responsible for proving and scaling Localytics’ enterprise go-to-market motion.
