Responsibilities

Drive Tolling-Specific Revenue Growth

• Consistently meet or exceed revenue goals—this is a quota-carrying role.

Team Management and Leadership

• Manage, coach, and develop a team of account executives; establish clear performance metrics and provide ongoing feedback.
• Set team strategy and ensure execution through pipeline management, deal strategy sessions, and cross-functional collaboration.

Sales Execution

• Collaborate with product, marketing, and customer success to align messaging and influence product direction based on tolling-specific needs.

Cross-functional Leadership

• Coordinate closely with sales operations, solution engineering, and executive leadership.

Qualifications

• Recent experience in the tolling industry, with strong familiarity with tolling agencies, concessionaires, or related public sector stakeholders.
• 5+ years of enterprise SaaS or technology sales experience, ideally selling complex or mission-critical solutions.
• Proven track record as a quota-carrying sales professional, consistently meeting or exceeding revenue goals.
• Experience managing or mentoring sales teams is preferred, though not required to have held a formal sales management title.
• Demonstrated success working with government entities, tolling authorities, or similar stakeholders.
• Familiarity with the procurement lifecycle in public sector sales (e.g., RFPs, RFIs, state purchasing processes).
