We are looking for an impact-driven leader to manage our AMER East Enterprise Sales Development team and to help us increase and improve the usage of our products in large organizations in the eastern parts of the US and Canada. Our users’ success is core to why this team exists and how we operate. As leader of this group, you will be an important contributor to our AMER East leadership team, driving recruiting, pipeline generation strategy, and proactive coaching and development for our SDRs.

The Sales Development Manager holds ultimate responsibility for the team's pipeline success and team culture. As such, this leader should be experienced in partnering effectively with cross-functional leaders across the GTM organization, from Sales and Marketing to Operations and Enablement. Our aim is to ensure that each SDR has a clear, well-lit path to be successful in the SDR role while developing the skills needed to become our future leaders in other departments. You must be passionate about this.

We need someone who is confident and decisive but also humble, empathetic and open-minded. While we’ve had strong growth in this region already, there is a massive opportunity to do and innovate more. There are problems to solve and building to be done. We need someone who enjoys a fast-paced environment but who prioritizes intentionality and quality, and who can balance thinking strategically while also developing and executing on the tactics.

What you’ll be doing:

  • This is a first-line management role, where you’ll develop and mentor a team of SDRs,including responsibility for performance management, recruitment, and training.
  • While you’ll be managing SDRs, you will be a part of the AMER East Enterprise GTM leadership team and need to think and act beyond the success of your team’s own KPIs to the overall sustainable success of the region.
  • Help execute on the strategy to ensure the success of our open source users and pipeline generation, with a primary focus on our Cloud products.
  • Work cross-functionally with Marketing, Sales, Self-Serve, Operations, Enablement, and Recruiting.
  • Take an analytical and data-driven approach to your business with strong instincts and decisiveness to influence change and drive improved productivity.
  • Drive an inclusive, collaborative environment, where your team members feel empowered to engage and speak up and where there is constant learning and growth.

What we look for:

  • 2+years of first-line management and/or experience in sales, sales development, operations, or enablement.
  • Managed and led teams across the Americas and across segments of the business or closed business as an individual contributor; experience working with Cloud products and with a product-led motion are important.
  • Consistent track record of leading teams to exceed monthly and quarterly targets; and reflection on and learning from when you’ve (occasionally) missed.
  • Growth mindset, leading by example proactively bringing solutions to challenges you identify, backed by data.
  • Strong Salesforce skills.
  • Ability to operate in an entrepreneurial, fully remote environment.
  • Must be located in NYC or Boston area.
  • Fluency in Portuguese and/or Spanish is a plus. Remember, this role covers the Americas.

In the United States, the OTE compensation range for this role is $115,500 - $144,500. Actual compensation may vary based on level, experience, and skillset as assessed in the interview process. Benefits include equity, bonus (if applicable), and other benefits listed on our careers page.

*Compensation ranges are country specific. If you are applying for this role from a different location than listed above, your recruiter will discuss your specific market’s defined pay range benefits at the beginning of the process.

We work in a big tent where everyone is welcome. Come on in.

OK, it’s not an actual big tent, but it is one of our core philosophies.

We know that data has incredible power to solve complex problems, transform business, drive innovation, and ultimately make the world a better place. The unfortunate reality is that the data we need often lives all over the place in disparate systems across geos, platforms, servers, and more. It’s our mission as Grafanistas to unite data, no matter where it lives, and empower our users to analyze, take action, and make smart decisions.

Building a powerful product takes a village — from engineering to customer success to people operations and beyond. What’s your calling?

What we value

Shared values are foundational to culture. They empower us, as both individuals and teams, to have an impact and achieve our mission, because we’re aligned on what’s really important to us. We’ve established these guiding principles to drive independent thinking, thoughtful decision-making, and result-oriented action that stays true to our mission.

Share openly and default to transparency

We share anything and everything we can — some might even call us over-sharers, and we’re OK with that. We want to ensure that Grafanistas have all the context they need to make smart, informed decisions in their daily work.

Respectfully empowered

We encourage our team members to be autonomous — this is essential for a distributed team. Freedom and empowerment are built on respect for one’s commitments and colleagues. We default to action. We value team members who take the initiative to get things done, ask when they need help, and dive into the job with both feet.

OSS is in our DNA

We have a big tent philosophy. We work with competitors and value interoperability. Decisions at Grafana are made with the long-term health of the company in mind. We aren’t distracted by short-term gains. We understand that our commercial success as a company is linked to our users’ success with our software.

We keep our commitments

We care about the say/do ratio, and for all our math friends out there, we like to see a good 1:1 ratio here. We do what we promise for each other, customers, and users, and we are personally accountable for delivering on our commitments. We dislike indecision: An imperfect or controversial decision is better than no decision. Debates are won with data and reason, not job titles.

Seek diverse perspectives

Each and every one of us prioritizes an open and inclusive culture at Grafana Labs, and we strive to bring diverse perspectives to the table to come up with the best ideas. We’re building a company where a diverse mix of talented people want to come, to stay, and to do their best work. We believe this will create the best results: Diversity drives innovation, and that innovation drives our success.

Don’t let perfect get in the way of great

We should all aim to do our best, but if perfection is the goal, we’ll probably never produce anything. Instead, we determine requirements to make something great and work hard to hit them. What can be squeaked out as an MVP at 60%? What actually needs to be done closer to 90%? From there, we iterate. This requires more than talent to succeed; it requires grit and determination. We want to get a great product out to our customers now and continue to iterate on it with fresh ideas and innovation. We’re a startup; we’re far from perfect. Get super comfortable with things not being perfect, while continuing to hold high standards for yourself and the team.

Help each other thrive

Supporting each other, our users, and our customers is a priority and core part of what we do. We pitch in where needed and do what it takes to get things done, even if it isn’t necessarily our job to do so. We win together, as one global team.
