You will partner closely with a peer Senior Director to drive holistic success across the segment, ensuring strong coverage, customer intimacy, and executive alignment across named accounts and territories. This role requires someone who thrives in the field — someone with deep enterprise selling expertise, strong executive relationships, and the ability to lead both day-to-day execution and long-range strategy. You’ll run your portion of the business with full ownership, collaborating with your peer and cross-functional leaders to accelerate Vimeo’s growth at scale.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of enterprise SaaS experience, with 5+ years leading quota-carrying sales teams.
  • Experience closing complex, multi-threaded deals with F1000 customers and influencing C-level decision makers.
  • Proven ability to manage a hybrid model of territories and named accounts.
  • Video industry or communications SaaS experience preferred — but not required.
  • Strong operator mindset — with comfort managing up, across, and down.
  • Demonstrated ability to personally impact revenue, lead with insight, and enable excellence at scale.

Leadership Behaviors We Value
