Vice President of Sales

Employment Type: Full-time

Position Overview

Are you a seasoned sales leader ready to make your mark? Do you love taking a strong sales team and helping them reach new heights through strategic leadership? Do you bring experience across both inside and field sales, with a proven track record of building top-tier talent and scalable playbooks for SMB and Midmarket?

We’re looking for a Vice President of Sales to help lead ChowNow through its next phase of growth—someone who knows that the core of this role is enabling sales teams to thrive while driving sustainable, scalable revenue. If you’re a compelling communicator who can galvanize teams, inspire action, and turn strategy into execution, we want to hear from you.

As our Vice President of Sales, you’ll lead our B2B direct sales organization and be a key member of the leadership team shaping our high-growth strategy. You’ll work cross-functionally with marketing, client services, and product teams to align efforts and drive results.

We’re looking for someone with deep experience in SaaS, marketplace, and/or subscription models—ideally with a history of scaling distributed sales teams during periods of rapid growth. You know how to create stability amid change and thrive in fast-paced environments where collaboration, data, and execution all matter.

About Us

ChowNow is one of the leading players in off-premise restaurant technology. As takeout becomes a vital revenue stream for independent restaurants, our platform helps owners focus on what they do best—serving great food—by offering solutions across the entire digital dining experience. From building branded websites and mobile apps, to powering online orders, managing menus, consolidating delivery, and running targeted marketing, we give restaurants the tools to grow on their own terms.

We support over 20,000 restaurants across North America, helping process $1B+ in gross food sales while saving our partners over $700M in third-party commission fees. Through our white-label ordering solutions, a growing demand network (including Google, Yelp, Apple, and Snap), and a diner-friendly marketplace, we empower independent restaurants to own their customer relationships and avoid inflated pricing and fees charged by 3rd party delivery apps like Uber and Doordash.

Founded in 2012, we’ve navigated rapid growth and transformation—from startup roots through the pandemic boom—and are now beginning an exciting new era under our CEO, Kanika Soni. As we evolve with new leadership and cutting-edge tools, we’re deepening our commitment to helping local restaurants thrive in the digital economy.
