BUILD A SAFER WORLD.

TRM Labs provides AI-powered intelligence solutions that help public and private sector agencies investigate and disrupt crime. TRM's platforms enable investigators to trace illicit activity, build cases, and construct operating pictures of threat networks. Leading agencies and businesses worldwide rely on TRM to make the world safer and more secure.

TRM is on a mission to build a safer financial system for billions of people. We deliver a blockchain intelligence data platform to financial institutions, crypto companies, and governments to fight cryptocurrency fraud and financial crime. We consider our business — and our profit — as a way to move towards our mission sustainably and at scale.

The Sales Account Director for crypto-first businesses will lead the go-to-market strategy to increase and strengthen our foothold in the space. We're looking for a customer-obsessed, consultative salesperson to own the entire sales process with new customers. This person will be knowledgeable about the cryptocurrency ecosystem and feel comfortable navigating both complex six-figure deals and fast-moving transactional deals.

Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end sales process with new customers -- from researching opportunities to tailoring their sales approach to prospects' needs to closing deals -- across crypto-first businesses.
• Write client proposals (sometimes, from scratch) and negotiate contracts / SOWs.
• Develop and leverage an in-depth understanding of client needs and key initiatives, tailor sales approach to specific business needs, and map these to TRM products.
• Generate, maintain, and report against an ongoing pipeline of strategic opportunities to meet and exceed sales targets.
• Actively seek to understand industry trends to help position against competitors.
• Gather and distribute product feedback from clients and prospects to the sales and product teams to help us continually enhance our product offerings.

What we’re looking for

• 5+ years of B2B SaaS sales experience with a demonstrated ability to consistently deliver against net new sales targets.
• Strong customer-facing presentation/listening skills with the aptitude to establish credibility with senior financial and compliance executives.
• Natural storyteller with the capacity to understand customer needs and convey compelling value propositions.
• Exceptional communication and problem-solving skills.
• Strong knowledge of cryptocurrencies, digital assets, and/or blockchains.
• Familiarity with regulatory initiatives and changes related to cryptocurrency; understanding of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulatory frameworks.
• Previous experience working in a fast-paced, growing startup environment.
• Additionally, this role may be eligible to participate in TRM’s equity plan.
• Please note – we factor in the different costs for geographies outside the United States.
