About the Role

Attentive is looking for a Director, Mid-Market Sales to lead, develop, and scale a team of Mid-Market Account Executives responsible for acquiring new customers and driving revenue growth.

This is a hands-on sales leadership role for someone who knows how to build high-performing teams in outbound-driven, competitive sales environments. You'll be responsible for developing AEs who can create their own opportunities, challenge how prospects think about their business, run strategic discovery, multi-thread across stakeholders, and build urgency throughout the sales process.

We're looking for a leader who is equally comfortable coaching individual deals and building the systems, expectations, and culture that drive repeatable performance across a team.

The ideal candidate has experience leading Mid-Market SaaS sellers in a high-growth or earlier-stage environment where the playbook wasn't always fully built and success required creativity, accountability, and a bias toward action.

This hybrid role is based in our New York office, with in-office collaboration Tuesday through Thursday each week.

• Build a high-performance culture centered around outbound prospecting, pipeline creation, accountability, and consistent execution.
• Coach AEs to run effective discovery, uncover meaningful business pain, challenge the status quo, and connect Attentive's platform to measurable customer outcomes.
• Develop sellers who can confidently engage and multi-thread across Marketing, Ecommerce, CRM, Finance, and executive stakeholders.
• Partner closely with AEs on deal strategy, including account planning, discovery, competitive positioning, b
