  • Articulate the value of Forerunner. You'll dazzle with demos and domain knowledge in front of our most high value prospects on a weekly basis.
  • Prioritize the sales pipeline to align with business goals. As a small startup we expect everyone to be adept at shifting priorities to meet changing goals.
  • Develop scalable sales strategies. As an early member of our sales team, your contribution will be crucial in setting our sales team up for ongoing success.
  • Contribute to product strategy. Help us drive product strategy by engaging with Product and Engineering teams based on your learnings in the field.

About You :

As a new addition to our team, you will help us spread the word about Forerunner and engage our customers in conversations about how software can help to transform their data and workflows. In general, you might be a good fit if you :

  • 3+ years of SaaS sales experience. We're passionate about driving efficiency through complex government procurement channels. A creative problem-solving mindset and go-getter attitude are essential. Experience in Public Sector SaaS is highly preferred, though not required.
  • 7+ years of professional experience with a track record of meeting or exceeding goals. As a small startup, we're excited about growth and expect you to be eager about contributing to it.
  • Are an excellent, empathetic communicator. You'll often be the first point of contact for potential customers interested in Forerunner and building trust is crucial in our space. We'll be relying on you to make a great impression in both written and phone / video communication.

  • We're mission-driven. Our mission orients our business strategy and pushes us to work with a sense of urgency. We're in the weeds our entire team spends time engaging with our partners in the field to better understand the real-world problems they face.
  • We're a small team. As a member of our growing team, you will quickly become an invaluable part of our organization and have a meaningful impact on our business and technical direction. We welcome unique perspectives and backgrounds. Your opinion matters and we hope you'll share it.
  • We're a remote-first organization, with offices in NYC, San Francisco and Portland, ME. Many members of our team work remotely, but we have small offices in San Francisco and Portland, ME. We offer schedule flexibility for all of our employees and ask for accountability in return.
