About the Role
As the Associate Director, you will be responsible for managing the strategy, performance, and growth of our sales channel. This role drives revenue through strategic partnerships across the United States while building and managing a high-performing sales team.

This is a highly visible player-manager role that blends direct revenue generation with team management. You will actively generate new business, build and manage your own pipeline, and close strategic opportunities while also managing team performance, accountability, and development.

This is a hybrid role requiring approximately 70% focus on team management, performance oversight, and development, and 30% direct sales execution, including client-facing meetings, conferences, and actively selling a broad portfolio of services.

Primary Responsibility: Lead Salesperson (Direct Revenue Ownership)
In this capacity, you function as a market-facing revenue driver responsible for building a pipeline, closing business, and representing the company externally.

• Own lead generation efforts, including building and maintaining a strong personal pipeline through outbound activity, onsite visits, referrals, CPA relationships, and strategic alliances.

• Act as a primary revenue generator by sourcing, consulting, and closing new business across multiple service offerings - not limited to a single solution or product line.

• Maintain a strong pulse on market trends, buyer behavior, and competitive activity, adjusting sales strategy to stay ahead of industry shifts.

• Demonstrate sustained sales growth performance in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, consistently outperforming market expectations.

• Build a visible presence in the market through networking, conferences, and ongoing engagement with key industry stakeholders.

• Drive urgency and discipline in the sales cycle to ensure consistent pipeline velocity and conversion performance.

• Meet and exceed KPIs and sales targets throughout the year.

Primary Responsibility: Team Management & Performance Oversight

In this capacity, you are responsible for managing a distributed sales team and ensuring consistent performance.

• Manage, develop, and drive performance of the sales team to achieve individual and collective revenue goals.

• Establish clear expectations, accountability structures, and performance standards across pipeline development, conversion rates, and revenue attainment.

• Oversee pipeline forecasting, reporting, and performance analytics to ensure accuracy and visibility at all levels of the business.

• Drive consistency in sales execution, tools, messaging, and client engagement across the team.

• Ensure the team is aligned with market trends and equipped to position multi-service offerings effectively in competitive environments.

• Identify performance gaps and implement targeted actions to improve individual and team results.

• Collaborate with Marketing to align campaigns, events, and conference strategies with revenue objectives.

• Partner with Practice Leaders and executive management to align sales activity with service offerings and growth priorities.

• Foster a performance-driven environment focused on measurable outcomes, activity discipline, and revenue accountability.

• Translate market insights into actionable direction for the team to improve conversion and pipeline quality.

Are We a Match? (Basic Qualifications)

• 5+ years of progressive sales experience, with at least 3 years in a management role - preferably in consulting, tax advisory, or professional services.

• Proven track record of both individual revenue generation and managing teams to exceed sales targets.

• Demonstrated success in lead generation, conference selling, and converting presentations into closed revenue.

• Experience selling multiple service offerings and building customized solutions across a diverse portfolio.

• Experience scaling and managing a nationally distributed sales organization.
