Christopher Gordon
@christophergordon
Account Manager and sales development leader delivering quota-busting growth through consultative, data-driven outreach.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven sales professional with 10+ years across financial services, SaaS, and B2B account management, specializing in consultative selling, lead qualification, and pipeline execution. I’ve proven performance as a “closer” with a 20% close rate—2x the industry benchmark—driving high-volume, compliance-driven outreach and managing enterprise accounts up to $300K.
I build efficiency with AI-augmented CRM automation and outreach workflows, reducing administrative overhead by 6+ hours per week while improving pipeline productivity. From leading a 12-person sales team delivering 20% above quota to executing multi-touch stakeholder engagement that landed a $300K enterprise contract, I’m focused on roles in SaaS, FinTech, Finance, or Technology where performance is measured, coached, and rewarded.
