And now, we’re looking for a VP Sales to join the DICE team in New York.
THE ROLE AND TEAM
The VP of Sales will take ownership for driving revenue and growth across DICE’s sales team in North America, which is currently split across New York and Los Angeles, with support from our central Sales Ops team in London.
We are looking for somebody who is an excellent leader and coach, who can help the team reach peak performance while acting strategically to help them achieve our revenue goals.
To be effective in this role you must be ready to enter an extremely competitive market, at a time in our business when we are in a ‘scale up’ phase with high targets and big ambitions.
Our primary partner type is medium to large (250 to 11,000 capacity) venues in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, with further US cities on our roadmap. Experience and relationships within this industry isn’t essential but would be an advantage.
We are looking for a well-rounded and ambitious VP of Sales who is able to adapt as both our market share and market offering grows.
This role will report directly to the US Managing Director, and will be a key member of the Leadership team in the US.
