SUMMARY

The Senior Account Executive, Team Lead – Membership Sales for the New York Liberty is a player-coach role for a proven hunter who wants to sell at a high level while beginning to lead people. This individual carries their own aggressive new-business targets across New York Liberty full season memberships, partial plans, group memberships, and premium seating (suites, courtside, and other premium inventory) while directly overseeing a small team of Account Executives whose day-to-day results and development also roll up to them.

This is a hybrid selling and people managing position. The Team Lead is expected to out-produce the team they oversee, and to use that credibility to coach, ride along with, and hold accountable the reps who report to them. It's built for someone with real leadership aspirations who has earned the right to start managing by being the best seller in the room first.

This role reports to the Director of Business Development.
