- Provide direct coaching, mentorship, and performance management to the CX Sales Team Lead to build and strengthen a robust supervisory layer.
- Standardize daily and weekly operating rhythms, including morning stand-ups, scripted sales coaching guides, and performance-based incentive (spiff) programs.
- Partner with external consultants and internal quality assurance teams to design and execute A/B testing on representative scripts, objection-handling techniques, and follow-up cadences.
- 5+ years of inside sales management, e-commerce sales leadership, or consultative retail sales operations experience.
- 23 years of sales leadership experience with responsibility for team performance and outcomes.
- 5 total years of B2B sales experience, with a strong focus on consultative, relationship-based selling.
- Proven experience managing a tiered team, including managing supervisors or team leads.
- Hands-on project management experience with a track record of testing, integrating, and launching third-party partnerships or field-service operations.
- Deep comfort utilizing advanced business intelligence and customer relationship management reporting tools to monitor pipelines, track multi-touch attribution, and execute A/B testing.
- Expert-level knowledge of consultative, relationship-focused sales techniques, including objection-handling and trigger-based outbound sequencing in a direct-to-consumer or B2B2C environment.
- Ability to balance tactical daily floor management with long-term strategic road mapping, resource planning, and third-party vendor management.
- Demonstrated ability to lead a team in an e-commerce sales environment.
