As the company continues to scale, we’re seeking a Sales Director to build, lead, and optimize a multi-channel sales organization.
ABOUT YOU
Independent. Growth-minded. Future-focused. You don’t wait for permission—you set direction, put points on the board, and bring people with you. You run toward change, keep the gas down, and sweat the numbers that matter. “Enough” isn’t in your vocabulary.
- Drives revenue and margin, not activity for activity’s sake

- Operates at altitude (strategy) and at ground level (KPIs)
- Moves fast, adapts faster, and keeps standards high
