Seismic is seeking a Regional Vice President of Commercial Sales to lead a high-performing team of Commercial Account Executives. You will own revenue targets for new-logo acquisition and expansion within the Commercial segment, building and coaching a team of experienced sales professionals while executing against a clear sales strategy. In this role, you will drive new-logo acquisition and expansion revenue by leading Account Executives to meet and exceed quota. You'll build and maintain accurate pipeline and forecast visibility using Salesforce, Clari, and other sales tools, holding the team accountable to disciplined forecasting. Your responsibilities include leading, inspiring, and mentoring Account Executives to sharpen their deal strategy, sales methodology, and objection handling.
