Director of Sales; Performance Marketing Agency

Remote - U.S. & Canada Only | Full-Time | OTE: $125,000-$150,000 (Base + Commission)

GOOD ENOUGH ISN'T.

Level is the digital marketing agency for brands ready to shatter yesterday's wins. We help high-consideration, complex businesses grow faster using a connected system of paid media, SEO, creative, web, data, and AI-powered iteration. We don't sell "campaigns." We sell compounding performance—built through daily optimization, relentless testing, and truth-first decision making.

We're not hiring a Director to keep deals moving. We're hiring a closer who can lead executive conversations, uncover the real problem, and sell the right solution across a full performance marketing stack.

Level Agency is hiring a driven, strategic Director of Sales to lead high-value pursuits, deepen enterprise relationships, and accelerate our outbound strategy. This role is for a senior seller who thrives in complexity, owns outcomes end-to-end, and knows how to win without waiting for permission.

You will lead the charge on our most strategic opportunities—referrals, inbound, and RFPs—and help shape a modern outbound engine alongside the CRO, including oversight and partnership with our Inbound Manager and SDR functions.

Important:
This role requires someone who has sold for a digital marketing agency—not just media inventory, not just ad tech, not just software. You've sold integrated services and know how to build confidence in a multi-discipline approach.

Our partners hire Level because our capabilities work together—and we evolve them as platforms change. You'll be selling a performance marketing system that includes:

• Paid Media Planning & Buying (search, social, programmatic, etc.)
• SEO + AI Search Strategy
• Performance Creative & Content (hooks, iteration, production velocity)
• Web / Landing Page Development & Conversion Optimization
• CRM, Lifecycle, and Marketing Automation
• Data Science, Measurement, and Analytics
• Strategy & Consulting for high-consideration journeys

This role is best suited for someone who has previously sold across these disciplines and can confidently represent an integrated performance marketing solution.

As Director of Sales, you'll own strategy + execution for complex, high-stakes deals while shaping how Level goes to market. You will:

• Lead the end-to-end sales process for strategic, high-value deals (inbound, referrals, RFPs)
• Build relationships with C-level buyers and close transformative client engagements
• Represent Level in Tier 1 rooms—credible, composed, and persuasive in executive conversations
• Translate ambiguous business problems into clear, board-level outcomes and scoped solutions
• Quarterback internal pursuits by aligning cross-functional experts (paid, SEO, creative, web, data)
• Lead custom proposals and RFP responses with sharp positioning and strategic rigor
• Maintain a healthy pipeline and forecast with precision and truth (no vibes-based CRM)
• Drive $3-5M in new business annually with clear visibility into ROI
• Travel to key client meetings, conferences, and internal summits as needed

You'll thrive here if you:

• Have carried a quota and produced real revenue selling agency services
• Can close 6-7 figure deals with multi-stakeholder buyer groups
• Can confidently sell paid media + SEO + creative + web + analytics as one system
• Run executive discovery like a pro: crisp, consultative, and high-control (in a good way)
• Know how to sell outcomes without over scoping, and hold scope without getting "commoditized"
• Use AI to move faster and sharper—researching, messaging, prospecting, and preparing
• Want to win and want your work measured

You will struggle here if you:

• Need layers of hierarchy to get things done
• Rely only on your network and don't have repeatable sales craft
• Have only sold one slice (e.g., "media only" / "SEO only") and can't sell integrated services
• Get uncomfortable when the conversation goes technical (measurement, web, SEO, creative tradeoffs)
• Can't command attention in executive conversations or struggle to drive next steps

• 10+ years of B2B sales experience, with 5+ years in enterprise or strategic selling
• Track record of closing $1M+ deals…
