ABOUT UNIT

Unit is a market leader in embedded finance. We offer ready-to-launch financial services - like banking and capital - and serve millions of end-users across ~100 customers, including Wix, Bill.com, Honeybook, Relay, and more.

We’re repeat founders with technical backgrounds, working hard to build a successful company that we’re proud to work at. Our product moves $40b+ annually and processes 12m+ API calls daily. We’ve raised $160m+ from top investors including Insight, Accel, and 60+ angels.


THE ROLE

4 years after launch, we’re serving ~100 customers, generating tens of millions in revenues and growing fast. We believe that this is just the beginning: as more financial services make their way into software in the next 5+ years, Unit has a tremendous market opportunity ahead of it. We’re at a special moment: we’re serving some of the largest software companies building financial services, and our growth is accelerating with the new addition of ready-to-launch banking + capital.


We’re hiring a Vice President of Sales to drive demand generation among 500+ target accounts and build a brand that continues to stand out. The position is based in New York and reports to the CEO.


We’re looking for a leader who lives in the details, obsesses with winning, and has experience managing sales in software companies that won their markets. You will join an excellent leadership team; hire, train and manage a high-performing revenue team; and establish Unit as a category leader. For the right candidate, this is a rare opportunity to solve hard problems and help build an industry-defining company from the ground up.


KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Plan and deliver ambitious new revenue growth consistently

  • Recruit, train, manage, organize and develop a world-class sales function

  • Set and execute on an effective outbound lead generation strategy

  • Lead the company’s expansion into more enterprise customer relationships and new customer segments

  • Engage with the largest strategic opportunities, lead executive relationships and help the team win new customers

  • Partner with the Executive team and other functions to shape the product roadmap and meet customer needs


WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

  • A humble, smart, hands-on leader with a track record of leading high-performing teams.

  • 5+ years of experience managing sales teams, and passion for all aspects of go-to-market, from building a brand to winning competitive sales processes.

  • Excellent first-principles thinking and communication skills

  • Proven success driving demand generation at software companies that won their markets.

  • Innate drive to make the most of limited resources, demand excellence and deliver results.

  • Demonstrated interest in financial services products

  • Familiarity with a complex B2B sales process and strong ability to articulate contractual, technical, and financial value points to customers, including executive leaders

LIFE AT UNIT

Working at Unit means joining a global team on a mission to create a more equitable financial ecosystem. We’re a fast-growing team of individuals who are passionate about their work, see the big picture and always seek to empower our clients and their end-customers.
