Regional Vice President

About Us

Applecart is the leading technology company creating a new category of “Decision Maker Marketing”. The most important decisions are made by the hardest people to reach and influence. Historically, C-suite leaders have lacked the tools to reach the stakeholders that matter most to their business. The C-suites of hundreds of Fortune 500 companies, major agencies, trade associations, nonprofits, and governments use Applecart to put their best content in front of business-critical decision makers and those they trust —  from policymakers and investors to CEOs, key employees, members of the media and more. Decision makers are informed by what they read, learn from advisors, hear from colleagues, and discuss with family and friends. To break through to them, you must reach them through the only channel that really moves them: those they know and trust. Applecart’s platform uses publicly available or fully permissioned data to map billions of social relationships between nearly every American adult and enable clients to deliver content directly to decision makers and those that matter most to them. 

We are hiring Regional Vice Presidents in our Business Development Organization, based in our Washington, DC offices.

About the Role:

You will be responsible for leading, coaching, and motivating a team of high-performing Senior Managing Directors who acquire, manage, and grow our most important client relationships at Applecart. In this position, you also will be a strategic partner across our go-to-market organization and the broader company, ensuring data, pipeline, and forecast accuracy so that we can meet our targets and plan the business, getting market feedback to our Product team to improve our solutions, and identifying areas where we can uplevel our go-to-market strategy and tactics.  

Our Senior Managing Directors are seasoned domain experts who leverage their deep understanding of our clients’ challenges and objectives from their previous work experience. They are responsible for growing revenue by building, managing, and deepening meaningful relationships with C-level executives at Applecart’s clients and changing the way Fortune 500 companies manage their brands with their most important stakeholders. 

What you’ll do:

• Lead and inspire your team to grow Applecart’s bookings and revenue to meet and exceed quota attainment
• Coach and strategize with members of your team on specific opportunities and work together with our Enablement team to help your team implement our sales methodologies
• Work with your team to ensure that data regarding opportunities is accurate and up-to-date in our CRM and that deals are in the appropriate stages so that we can accurately forecast the business
• Get out “on the front lines” with members of your team to help them advance opportunities, close deals, and retain and grow revenue with our clients

Experiences and Capabilities You Bring:

• Significant experience in leading sales teams to exceed revenue targets. 
• High emotional intelligence - you are a talent magnet who has coached your team to success
• A track record of sales success in career - you’ve won President’s Club or otherwise distinguished yourself through your and your teams’ performance
• The tenacity required to break into new business
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Impeccable attention to detail and superior organizational skills

This is a hybrid role. Work from home on Monday and Friday and in Applecart’s DC office Tuesday through Thursday. 

Compensation:

Our compensation package consists of three components: (i) a base salary, (ii) incentive cash compensation tied directly to revenue generated from clients you manage and (iii) generous equity compensation that vests over time.

The base salary range for this role is between $200,000 and $250,000, based on the candidate's experience and skills relative to the requirements listed above.  In addition to base salary, a substantial portion of overall cash compensation for this role will consist of sales incentives tied directly to revenue generated from the team you manage. Regional Vice Presidents who meet their quotas can expect to make an additional 100% of their base salary in incentive compensation. There is no cap on incentive compensation—so if your team exceeds their quota, you could bring home more than double your base salary in cash. The salary range provided for this role is specific to candidates located in the New York City area.
